Wayne's World (SNES) Playthrough - NintendoComplete
284A playthrough of THQ's 1993 license-based platformer for the Super NES, Wayne's World.
I find it difficult to fully understand all of the criticism of this game. It's not particular good, but it's hardly terrible... it's more just... mediocre. It certainly succeeds in most ways that the NES version did not (maybe the developer difference? Gray Matter had a far better development track record than Radical, the NES game's developer), and the mechanics, though a bit slippery and cumbersome, do work well enough.
The game makes a valiant attempt at channeling the spirit of the movie, but they really tend to overkill the digitized stills and sound clips. I mean, I get that making Mike Myers' head 7X real-size makes it easier to recognize at this resolution, but it's pretty hilariously absurd in practice.
If you really want to scar yourself, though, watch what happens at 20:18. All I can say there: if Freddie Mercury hadn't died a couple years before this was released, he certainly would have wanted to after seeing what,they did to his master work. How did they even get the rights to attempt it?
