SNES Wolfenstein 3D

[Guest]

Super Nintendo Wolf is STUPID!!!
All the blood is removed. The rendering is crap. The german symbols (swastikas) are taken out. Hitler isn't hitler. a whole new story. German http://3drealms.3dportal.com/ubb/images/icons/wink.gif Shepards are Greyhounds. It's just totally pathetic.

Actually they're rats- not dogs. I guess killing dogs is too bad as well. And they even took out the religious references (they replaced the crosses with something else).

[Uncle Duke]

So, the point of the game is to escape some non-descript prison, then? 'cos they only look like Nazis, no swastikas, no Hitler. And, really, you're just knocking them out cold (no blood)? Sad.

Nintendo doesn't allow such things as Nazi symbols and blood (they had blood in MK2-U3 to compete with Sega). Also the actual game itself is the Mac version. Remember playing DOOM for the SNES? If Wolf3D used the FX chip like DOOM did Wolf3d would have been playable. But it wasn't cost effective.

I'd like to note that becuase of that game id Software has started to dislike Nintendo very much. That's maybe why the lisenced the engine for Super 3D Noah's Ark. That game is coo. http://3drealms.3dportal.com/ubb/images/icons/smile.gif BUT that's all hear-say.

I totally agree I read in PC Gamer UK that ID said they'd do it for the Snes if they didn't have to change anything. And what do those bastards at Nintendo do?! Green blood? Bunch of wusses.

[Guest]

Yes, the game is stupid. EXTREMELY stupid, I just like the weapons (how they look)

[Guest]

Personally i think anything that is edited sucks. Cds, games, movies, anything that is edited is worse than the real thing.

Hmm, this message is edited...

That must mean it sucks. It's just not as good as the original message (even though it was just blank).

And the Star Wars Trilogy: Speacial Edition was basically just an edited version of Star Wars so it must suck too. I fact, know that I think about it, all movies/games/literature gets edited (assuming the editor does his job) so that must mean that just about everything sucks.

Whatever, I'm just having fun with ya'.

It's easy:
Wold3D SNES Sucked a lot
Wold3D is pretty cool but begin to be old and older than all
DOOM SNES Suck also...too bad
DOOM PC RULEZ and GLDOOM even more!
Super 3D(huh???) Noah(Brrr) Ark (AHHHHHH!!) is a kind of stupidity(a religious game...WTF?using the wolf3d engine...somebody kill me please, or the game creator(better idea!))

Wolf SNES was as good as it could be given:

1) The content restrictions put on it by Nintendo.

2) The fact that it's a Super Nintendo - it's essentially the same CPU as an Apple IIgs - and while it's a great computer, it's dated. The SNES doesn't handle this kind of game well.

Come to think of it, there aren't any new SNES games in the Nintendo Power mags anymore.

Also: You could practically emulate any game system with a PC. Game consoles are built to be simple. The processors aren't what do it, it's the built-in-3d accelerator-like graphics chips...

If there is one thing I have figured out it is that anything from 3drealms that comes out on a Nintendo system is always watered down to the point where it just stand out from any other games. Two examples are Wolfenstein 3D for the SNES and Duke Nukem 64.

Nintendo have always wanted games released on their consoles that they can't handle. Almost every N64 game has a framerate that's below what I'd called acceptable, unless that's just the PAL version of the console.

I think it may well be that PAL is at a higher res. than the atlantic's equivelent.

Not exactly. PCs are made more for word processing, multitasking, and the internet. They just aren't made for lightning speed memory to video writes. Also, PC speeds are held down by outdated standards (like CGA, 5.25 floppy drive capabilities, etc.)

Back in the days of Wolfenstien for snes, Nintendo was afraid of blood. They were just concerned with being everybodies favorite "kids programmers." Hell they even took the blood out of Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat 2 was the first game to lift the blood ban. Nowaday's Nintendo is as violent as it wants, though they never put any blood in their own games.

Even though it was edited, I enjoyed playing Wolfenstien Snes for the first time. Of course thats when I was real little, and now I think the game totally sucks ass.

If you want a cool version of Wolf3d; go for Jaguar version, it was cool, Flamethrower!!!

Actually Crosma, the games would have to run at 320 x 288. PAL has 20% more scanlines as opposed to NTSC.

On the other hand, NTSC has a higher frame rate, 29.97 as opposed to 25.

I myself prefer PAL, because the picture quality is better when compared to NTSC.

[Crosma]

That's not what I meant Delphi. Nintedo don't take PAL into account when thinking about resolutions, that's why PAL versions often have borders.

The framerates do change the game speed (Genesis/Megadrive games were slower on PAL because they ran at the exact framerate, NTSC's is higher).

This is true. However, the games for the N64 are in 320x240, they are just stretched to 640x480 when displayed this is why us PAL users often get black borders. They'd have to strect it to 720x568 (or thereabouts) to fill the PAL screen (some games do, some don't).

I think the N64 is just an underpowered console that's trying to be more impressive than it can handle.

Damn straight. Someone should make a portable handheld gamesystem based on Jaguar hardware. It was pretty powerful.

Ever played Fight For Life? The player models put Virtua Fighter to shame, though the backgrounds are kinda drab.

I just wish someone would make ROTT for the Jaguar. http://www.3drealms.com/ubb/images/icons/wink.gif

hahaha! dream on! This game was laughed at in many magazines. And the characters are NOT better looking than VF's. You're hilarious!
