VGMaps Social Board / Re: Trying to complete my Super NES music collection...

As you can see, I finally released my "One Minute of Music from EVERY SNES Game (US & Canada)" video!  This is why I needed the music.

You've probably seen/heard my "One Minute of Music from every NES game" video, but now here's the next one... "One Minute of Music from every SNES game (US & Canada)"!

Excluding Super Copa (a reskin of Tony Meola's Sidekicks Soccer which apparently came out in Mexico, not just South America and some Central/Latin America countries as I previously thought), there are exactly 720 games that were released for the Super NES in North America, and 720 minutes (12 hours) happens to be the current maximum length of a YouTube video.  That was one of the reasons I felt it was too fitting to not make, and this easily is my longest video ever.

I'd actually been working on this on and off since the NES one, usually as a way to keep myself from burning out when I needed to step away from other video projects.  It's been sitting on my hard drive, completed for a while, and figured I might as well get this out there.  It's hard to know how many actual hours it took, but there was a LOT of cleaning up of box art.  Most are originally from The Cover Project, but hundreds of those still needed a few obvious scratches to be removed and for the black background to be made solidly black.  This may be the cleanest Super NES box art on the 'net!

This and the NES music video are great to have running in the background while you do your work.  ;)  Hope you enjoy this!

zagato blackfist, no stranger to NES mapping, submitted maps for Cowboy Kid today!

Though many of my requests include popular games that I'm surprised haven't been mapped yet after all this time, some games are on the list BECAUSE they're obscure, like this one.  Cowboy Kid is a rare NES game that plays somewhat like The Legend Of The Mystical Ninja / Ganbare Goemon games.  Though while those games are very Japanese, Cowboy Kid is very Western... the Japanese title is literally "Western Kids".  Like the Goemon games, there sure are a lot of buildings you can enter... zagato's maps will help with that.  Anyway, I'm glad that a rare game gets some maps, it means that more people can see and experience this game!

:o Amazing work ! I didn't remember all that... all these rooms...
So many thanks to share your work for the posterity. Your captures are simply perfect !
What a pretty nice game (my favorite continent was Afralona).

Yeah, this will motivate me to do at least Vectorman 2, and maybe something else from the list.  :D

Desert Strike is complete, there's really only 4 levels, unlike its sequels.

I'm pretty sure both versions of the first Ecco the Dolphin game are a bit different, with the CD one featuring extra stages. However, I was never a big fan of them so I can't say if stages common to both are identical or sometimes a bit different.

I whipped up that list quite quickly, so it's quite possible I made some errors and I didn't have time to look into some details.

-Like how/if the Genesis and Sega CD versions of the two Ecco The Dolphin games are different.
-Or how the bonus games are enhanced, and if the Space Harrier II maps we have count, or if the enhanced version needs its own maps.
-It looks like Rainbow Islands Extra is a Japanese Mega Drive game.  Haven't checked to see which other games, if any, are not originally North American releases.
-Not sure if the green "O"s (to mark completed map sets) are all correct.  Also have some blue "?"s for some that I am not sure if they are actually complete.

If any Genesis fans see any errors to be corrected or things to be tweaked in the listing, definitely feel free to let me know.

John Brain, Genesis fan for life, has contributed maps for Daze Before Christmas (Au)!

I originally requested the Super NES one, but the Genesis one is apparently pretty much identical.  But only released in Australia for some reason... (where Christmas is in the summertime.  Hmmm.)

There really aren't many Christmas games, especially on consoles, so this is a nice one to have mapped.  Thanks again for supporting that Genesis page, John Brain!
