Forums - Nintendo - Why does the Wii never get the superior version???

That's what I get for trying to go off memory alone.

lol, well, in my 'defense' the only reason I remember this is because I was working at an EB Games at the time EWJ came out and was very much the super hardcore gamer at the time. (I also recall EWJ being absolutely annihilated by DKC, sales-wise--it was a bloody massacre.)

Actually, I'd argue that, as the lead platform, the Genesis rev (like Madden and NHL) actual play and control better (read: faster and tighter) on the Genesis, even if it isn't as quite as colorful. (The SNES rev is also missing an entire level and features some animation cuts from the Genesis version.)

So unless your entire argument hinges on the richer color palette of the SNES (and, perhaps, better music, but not better SE) the Genesis rev is actually the better version.

But...but the graphics. I mean way more colours and all...

How comes suddenly gameplay is that important when the graphics are way worse?

I played both on my SNES back then and have to say I enjoyed EWJ much more. Unfortunately, the later 3D works never were my thing.

Overall, the 3D versions of games are not my thing.

I am really annoyed right now.

Clearly, Earthworm Jim on SNES is far superior to the Mega Drive version. Everyone knows that. Yet what does the Wii get?

The Mega Drive version.

The Wii just cant win, it seems.


The Wii will probably get the SNES version of Mortal Kombat too. You know, the one without the blood, or did this happen already?

Wasn't Earthworm Jim supposed to be better on megadrive because the guy behind it (forgot his name) was pro sega???? (as in extras the SNES did not have)

DKC is a far better game (better graphics, better music, better gameplay) and much easier.  Plus, DK is an established character.

no, you don't understand the OP. It isn't a joke. You would probably need to be at least 20 and been a gamer when you were really young to understand what he is talking about.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

How can 720p be considered HD when it looks like ugly snow grains on my 22'' screen?
