...Any single console game had a overwhelming amount of hype leading to it's release amirite?

as far as i can recall the only game that had as much major build up as a hype vehicle up until that time... was maybe Super Mario 3 perhaps?




Cats like to talk about the console wars now :heh: :usure:

The Snes vs Genesis debates back then were no joke.
The differences in multiplat and exclusives were like night & day.

These youngster don't how we had the huge Electronic gaming monthly mags that we would bring to school. This was before the internet movement. So E3 was all surprises for game announcements. Being the first kid to bring his MK Genesis cartridge and feuded with the snes kids on who have the better version of the game. Blood vs graphics.

I remember hearing about Mode 7 as a kid and would use that to try & sell my parents on getting a Snes.


Sometimes mode 7 looked great in some games

That would be just the type of game my pops would bring home for me. The little white dude up the street just got Turtles in Time or something and he'd bring this home from the Military Exchange with some Wendy's or something and I'd have to front like I liked it
