Advantages: Great console!

Disadvantages: Many game repeats

When the SNES was first released, we were first welcomed to Super Mario World for the system. This game was a fine example of what made the SNES great. There was an expansion of characters including Yoshi. There was also a bigger map than its precursor and visual graphics that were as iridescent as they were detailed. The game itself was full of tricks and traps at every angle. The sheer amount of secrets that could be uncovered in this game was exorbitant showing the creativity that went into the design of the game. Mario himself was full of more powerful moves and the castles had a wistful welcoming quality not seen by the other castles in the Mario series. The quality of this game would go over to the rest of the games in the SNES catalogue, especially the illustrious RPG's that would go down as the best set of games every released for any game system.
The SNES was released 11th April 1992 in Europe and was a big hit. After the successful Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), the SNES became a global success selling 49.10 million units to date. It also became the best selling home video console for the 16-bit era. There were two versions of the SNES, the US version which was mainly Purple and more boxed shape and the Japan/European Version which had more colourful buttons and had smoother rounder shape to it. I have the UK one as I live in the UK.
The SNES can play a total of 32768 colours which is nothing compared to what we have today. It is so many there is not even a number for it, if there is I don't know it. A total of 785 games was released for the SNES, many of which a sequel to those on the NES. For example Super Double dragon and Super Goal! 2. Many of the titles have the word Super in front of it. This shows that it is a remake of the same game just better quality.
Over all I think the Super Nintendo Entertainment System is a great home video games console and did deserve to won the 16-bit video game war era. 10/10 for this!

Summary: Great video games console
