PS. I totally agree about Top Gear > F Zero. Finding Top Gear with manual for literally $1 kickstarted my SNES collecting. Total steal and I treasure my copy even without a box
What might be 20 years old for some is new for others, I just found out about Chaos Seed this year for example. What truly is admirable imo is adding spoiler warnings for not a BEST endings video but a WORST endings video instead
I hate how people treat spoilers nowadays. As if every person has experienced every possible media the moment they came out. That entitled, “it’s been out for a WHOLE WEEK, if you haven’t seen it yet, that’s your fault” bullshit. Some people have actual lives and can’t experience games, movies, books, comics, etc. the second they come out, so anytime someone respects spoilers, regardless of how old, it deserves a massive amount of respect. We appreciate you, SNES drunk.
You totally should have added Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story to this list, you don't even get an ending in it, it goes straight to a game over screen, the same one as if you die normally!!!
I think by the standard of most of these games, Super Metroid should have been on the list too. Great game, yeah, but it has just as much ending as the spoderman game and R-Type 3
@@Prodmullefc What??? Super Metroid is among the the best. The baby Metroid returning and sacrificing itself to save you when all seems lost, reflecting the maternal theme of you vs Mother Brain, followed by the action packed escape sequence bringing it all full circle. Plus, it's all delivered in-game, instead of a slideshow and text like the majority of games at the time and even now.
@@HydefHyde I only said that because of why SNESdrunk said the R-type ending was bad. But I never thought of SM as having a playable ending before, if that's what you're saying. I'm assuming you mean everything after when Mother Brain hits you with hyper beam would be the "ending" then. Which is an interesting way of looking at it. (Although, tbh, I myself would say the real last boss is Ridley since he's harder, more fun, and cooler than the sorta obligatory Tourian stuff.)
Suda51 actually said something recently about that Fire Pro ending. Something along the lines of; he wanted the game to have multiple endings, both good and bad, - But last minute he decided to scrap the idea and instead wanted there to only be one conclusive outcome. When telling the designers to rid the multiple endings, they opted to scrap the 'good one', leaving us with what we have today. Video: th-cam.com/video/JgggpKr931U/w-d-xo.html
Yeah,I dont buy that he completely left it to his coworkers which ending to pick. It smells a bit too much like him(or well,a younger and edgier version).
That was... really a shit decision by the designers, I can't help but imagine what led to this outcome "okay boys wrap it up, we need to decide on one ending, and fast because I gotta get something to eat, what do you guys say?" "the depression one" "yup, definitely depression" "i just wanna tell the guy paying for our game to fuck himself" "aight boys, pizza time"
@@IAMNEKOMIMI Actually I respect the designers for going with the bad and depressing ending. Its actually one of the better endings for a Wrestling game.
@@lukasperuzovic1429 Agreed. I'm kind of baffled by the comment section's reaction to it LOL like sure it's "edgy", but it's also interesting and so totally Suda. It could have ended on a YOU WIN and no one would be talking about it, yet here we are
sadly this game designer designed the WRESTLINg ending of CHRIS BENOIT even before it happened... did the character in the game kill his wife and kid before the soicide ? Cuz if so it IS the chris benoit ending.
@@ArshesNei8 "Hey dudes... let's grab a burger" No, not "I want you on the Secret Service" or " Here's a million" or even "Marry my daughters Barbara and Jenna"... you're rewarded a burger.
LOL holy hell that #1 ending made me choke on the water I was drinking, omg wtf are you serious?!? This is why I come here, SNES Drunk, to see the things I'd never know existed otherwise.
It's pretty dumb that this dude acts like it comes out of nowhere. Your character struggles with depression throughout the entire game and it only gets worse and worse as you progress through the story and more horrible stuff happens to/around him. At the end of the game, his friends are dead, his coach is dead, and his girlfriend has left him. I guess in 1994 it would be a little shocking for a game to end with suicide, but... did you even *play* the game before making this list?
The 7th Saga ending is actually pretty good! In the beginning, you're given the quest by King Lemele and he mentions that he has high expectations for you. Mid-game, you end up traveling back in time. When the king in the past said you'll be reborn as one of his descendants, you're actually reborn as King Lemele who started this whole questline in the first place.
Yes, but having played this game and even though it is one of my all time favorites I have to agree that the story is difficult to understand on your first play. On top of that, I guess people didn't like the ending since spoilers, it kills you anyway. More interesting to me is, what happened to your companion? He was just standing there next to you while Gorsia took you lol
It's a fun and rewarding experience if you bum around Bonro for 30 levels, dueling apprentices, and getting free equipment from the ones you befriend. The story is Esoteric. It's about the 7 seals. You are the one to release them, and therefore go back in time to seal them.
Yes! This was the first game that came to mind for me. I played all day on a Sunday, paused it and finished it after school the next day: very disappointing.
My brother and I loved T2: The Arcade Game and bought it for the SNES when it came out. The ending was a huge letdown after struggling to beat the game using the controllers we got the "bad" ending: a black and white picture of John Connor with text saying that he was alive but research will continue at Cyberdyne and that Judgement Day was still possible. After starting over we managed to destroy every single computer and filing cabinet in the Cyberdyne level and were expecting something better of an ending. NOPE. Same picture but now in color and text stating that Cyberdyne was destroyed and that the future was what you make of it. We were quite enraged.
Same thing here, but when I totally destroyed Skynet and got the good ending, I felt fulfilled. It was outrageous for me to expect quality back then. Some of my best moments were playing ljn games in a pre-avgn non biased environment.
Growing up with 8 & 16-bit games I learned to see ending cutscenes as a bonus and good ones as a rarity. I'm only disappointed if the game already has a nice intro.
I was waiting for it. It took me years to finally beat just to get a fade to black, "you escaped Jurassic Park" or some nonsense. If I recall right, you dying had a more interesting screen.
wait, WHAT? i never beat the game, but that was the ending? well... fuck me sideways with a turtle flavored porcupine, i'd have been pissed if i did witness it.
Honestly, Super Fire Pro Wrestling Special deserves to be among the best for how dark and sombre it is. Were there many other games that doubled down on such heartbreak and misery at the time?
I really like the Super Fire Pro Wrestling Special story mode ending. Is something you can expect from a movie and that's cool. My bad endings to choose in SNES = Jurassic Park and Super Double Dragon :(
That Fire Pro ending was a hint at what was quietly going on in wrestling (hence the Von Erchs). It was quietly neglected and tragically still is. It was a premonition of sorts to boot. Look at the wrestlers we've lost to suicide in years past. Scary accuracy ahead of its time.
@@BryanX64 no bro. There are many who sadly committed suicide. Look up deceased wrestlers and there are many who committed suicide in some way. The Chris Benoit tragedy was one of the worst to date. It was murder and suicide.
6th! ...and now with that out of the way, before watching/opening description: Jurassic Park! Huh, not there? I've always felt that one's ending was a real slap in the face. Basically the same short mode-7 sequence as in the game's intro, except playing in reversed and with added helicopter sound, followed by a text screen saying _"Congratulations, you have escaped Jurassic Park"._ Roll credits. A complete and total letdown of an ending for a long(ish) game you can't really beat on first or second try (unless using a guide that tells you where the items are and what to do next) and that has _no_ save feature or password system of any kind. As a kid I borrowed JP from a friend a few times but never managed to beat it back then, even with a couple of attempts where I left my SNES running for long periods in order to not lose my progress. With emulators I then got to witness the ending in all its lacklusterness.
My copy of Jurassic Park froze twice, in the same place, a long way in. It happened after accessing a terminal on the ship, exiting the terminal screen, and turning left. But I didn't get discouraged, no. The third time through (A 6 hour marathon) I beat it. For that ending.
Same here. Could never play through the game back in the day, because of the lack of a save feature. Through emulation and save states, was finally able to finish it, only to be massively disappointed by the ending. I imagine the devs just figured no one would actually play through the damned thing, so why bother making a proper ending.

I dunno if I'd say *worst*, but one I always hated was Ninja Warriors. The game is nut-punchingly hard, and to top it off at the end all three playable robots self-destruct! I guess they were literally created as weapons and don't seem to ever show any emotions or feelings, but it still sucks that they couldn't get a happily-ever-after teaching more peaceful ninjas or working in construction or something. I remember little preteen me was actually legitimately sad for like three or four days over it, it was one of the first pieces of media I'd ever consumed with such a bittersweet finale.
I actually liked the ending in Ninja Warriors, as it explains that the androids where literally weapons without consciousness, I also like the fact that the people realized that it was all for nothing, as Mulk (the one that send the androids in the first place) continued the advancement of the androids making an even more powerful army, thus becoming another dictator. Gotta love that last line: "Some things never change"
I would add Jurassic Park. The ending where you just fly off from the island after a 2 hour grind playthrough... I think I snapped the cartridge in half after that.
Oh man I agree with you. If that game had a save or password feature it wouldn't be so bad. But nope, it has neither. Beat that game once and never again.
Wow, the ending to that wrestling game was really messed up! Otherwise really fun video and thank you for the spoiler tags. (I still want to try to actually beat 7th Saga.) Maybe try game openings or intros next?
Honestly, it's one of the most memorable endings in the entire 16-bit era. Few games at that point, and few games even today, will actually end with a truly bad ending. There is no "good" ending - that is the end of the story that they wanted to tell. It must've taken some serious balls to do that.
Am I the only one who got creeped out by the Fire Pro Wrestling special's ending? :P The background music is kinda creepy and the fact that there's a suicide in a snes games makes it even more weird and creepy :D
Correction on that 7th Saga ending review: that creature you killed at the end of the game (Gorsia), it's literally Satan in the japanese version. And the entity that you were helping and will be born as his descendant (Saro) it's literally GOD. So, you destroy Satan, that managed to destroy your body with his final attack, so god imortalizes your soul, making you his descendant. I mean, it sounds way better than what you told us in the video. Nonetheless, great video as usual
One thing you forgot to mention about 7th Saga is how convoluted the last act of that game got. So the King who hired you to find the 7 Runes was actually the Evil Demon guy that the King defeated years ago. The Evil Demon guy possessed the King's body and hired the lot of you guys to go out to find the 7 Runes that are the key to his power. After finding all 7, Evil Demon guy returns but God says "You can't defeat him, so I will take you back in time to defeat him in the past... for some reason." So you defeat the Evil Demon guy in the past but that only seals him away for future generations to deal with, but you DIED so you get reincarnated to be the King who defeated the Evil Demon guy in the first place... WHAT THE HELL!?
One game to mention was Pirates of Dark Water for the SNES. The animated series never had a story ending, so they decided to do the same thing with the game as well. I was SO mad when I finished that one. I loved that show, and hoped they'd try something different...😒
Super fire pro's ending is the best, I love it. Its as obscene as the endings on wwf wrestlemania arcade. It makes me laugh every time and is my favourite snes ending.
Man, not only is Separation Anxiety's ending that bad, IIRC you can even get into a brawl with the bosses from Maximum Carnage while the credits are rolling in that game, and it turns into a survival mode. So they went in completely opposite directions with the endings in each game.
Yeah Maximum Carnage was a much better game the only thing missing was a 2 player mode. It's like they added 2 players on Separation Anxiety in exchange for presentation and game play.
Great Video as always! But you really forgot about Jurassic Park. It's not a bad game, but has no password or saving function and after I let my SNES run for two whole days, because I couldn't make it through in one run, all I got was this lousy textbox...
I came here just to talk about that crappy ending. Such a long and painful playthrough to get just a "Congratulations, you escaped Jurassic Park" screen. Oh, man... #Facepalm
Honestly, I really kinda don't get why Fire Pro Special is #1. It's a sad ending, but it had a lot of effort put into it compared to everything else on the list, and as mentioned, it's pretty much the kind of way a lot of wrestlers go out. A game having a dark tone doesn't make it bad; hell, the fact that games can deliberately and successfully evoke emotions other than satisfied happiness is probably one of the best arguments for games as a legitimate artform, and it's kind of bonkers and awesome that I'm saying this about a WRESTLING GAME of all things.
sadly this game designer designed the WRESTLINg ending of CHRIS BENOIT even before it happened... did the character in the game kill his wife and kid before the soicide ? Cuz if so it IS the chris benoit ending.
Tragic suicide has to be the most eerily accurate depiction of reality. All that’s missing is a painkiller and steroid addiction mechanic and you’ve got the worlds first real pro wrestling simulator
Thanks for showing me the ending for Separation Anxiety because I suck and can never get past the 2nd level. It's basically YOU'RE WINNER but with Carnage...
7th saga gave me my first taste of major betrayal. It's been a while, but if I remember right the dwarf took my items, and ran off with them while I slept at an inn. Hard as nails game, but it was fairly unique.
I am far less concerned about spoilers to this video than I was about the last one. ;) But I admire the dedication and service you show to your viewers in providing time links anyways. Great job as always.
Out of curiosity: are you speaking about the Star Trek game where Q drags you from the future to posses your father's body for a chance to save him (your father) from a time fart? And ALL because Q was bored and felt it would be amusing to watch? He even posses other characters during your adventure just to diss at your failures. That one per chance?
I have learned so much! I will include so many of your phrases into my daily repertoire, such as "quarter-ass"! Stellar video, thank you so much! Great video
@@BigDaddyCola I agree, I think the Issue SNESDrunk has with the ending is that it's the same has the original NES game. Just a lazy cut and paste, like my college papers Lol
Oh, come on... Yeah, I agree that using the same format for Super Ghouls n' Ghosts as they did on the original game wasn't the best idea of the world, but... Gotta luv saving the princess, getting a hug and a kiss, riding her back on your horse and even getting to sleep with her... I mean, on one of your videos about Super Mario World, you kept saying how fulfilling it was to get to know even your enemies' names and all... this ending is really similar to Mario World's ending!
Really appreciate your weird (to me) midwestern indignation about #1s ending. I agree with you. Just really enjoyed word choice. I like that even tho you use regular swear words, your channel doesnt need to get off on excessive swearing.
Dude the ending to super fire pro is effing amaze-balls bro, i mean its a wrestling game with murder and intrigue then ends in suicide... Insanity, yes, but terrible ending? I think not.
I LOVED the Fire Pro ending, what a unique twist to all of the Rocky-style typical wrestling hoopla. Great twist for a fun bunch of games; Suda51 also just had a sequel scenario written for the newest Fire Pro. You play as the protagonist's son. Man, the Worst SNES ending that always comes to mind for me is Outlander. (Like the video, don't read ahead, if you care): The game's insanely difficult, but cool. You scratch, struggle, and claw your way through the entire game, beat the final boss, and find your dad. He comes at you and says some gibberish, you say "wait...what?", he says more gibberish, you say "oh no...this ordeal has driven him insane...okay, let's go home, Pops", and the credits roll.
Jurassic Park was a very disappointing ending too. Especially with how hard it was to get, and a possible game ending invisible glitch that someone can stumble on in the boat stage after you finish the objective there.
I remember playing fire pro wrestling on my GBA back in the early to mid-2000s. I played it a lot but actually I enjoyed making custom wrestlers more than actually playing the main game.

...and now with that out of the way, before watching/opening description: Jurassic Park!
Huh, not there? I've always felt that one's ending was a real slap in the face. Basically the same short mode-7 sequence as in the game's intro, except playing in reversed and with added helicopter sound, followed by a text screen saying _"Congratulations, you have escaped Jurassic Park"._ Roll credits.
A complete and total letdown of an ending for a long(ish) game you can't really beat on first or second try (unless using a guide that tells you where the items are and what to do next) and that has _no_ save feature or password system of any kind.
As a kid I borrowed JP from a friend a few times but never managed to beat it back then, even with a couple of attempts where I left my SNES running for long periods in order to not lose my progress. With emulators I then got to witness the ending in all its lacklusterness.
I was looking for this game in the comments... maaaan it was infuriating as a child to beat it, and get that crappy ending!!!
Jurassic park 2 true ending is no better, believe me.
My copy of Jurassic Park froze twice, in the same place, a long way in. It happened after accessing a terminal on the ship, exiting the terminal screen, and turning left.
But I didn't get discouraged, no. The third time through (A 6 hour marathon) I beat it.
For that ending.
Same here. Could never play through the game back in the day, because of the lack of a save feature. Through emulation and save states, was finally able to finish it, only to be massively disappointed by the ending. I imagine the devs just figured no one would actually play through the damned thing, so why bother making a proper ending.

Rival Turf: best ending ever, you punch the bad guy in the bawllz xD
I dunno if I'd say *worst*, but one I always hated was Ninja Warriors. The game is nut-punchingly hard, and to top it off at the end all three playable robots self-destruct! I guess they were literally created as weapons and don't seem to ever show any emotions or feelings, but it still sucks that they couldn't get a happily-ever-after teaching more peaceful ninjas or working in construction or something. I remember little preteen me was actually legitimately sad for like three or four days over it, it was one of the first pieces of media I'd ever consumed with such a bittersweet finale.
I actually liked the ending in Ninja Warriors, as it explains that the androids where literally weapons without consciousness, I also like the fact that the people realized that it was all for nothing, as Mulk (the one that send the androids in the first place) continued the advancement of the androids making an even more powerful army, thus becoming another dictator. Gotta love that last line:
"Some things never change"
I would add Jurassic Park. The ending where you just fly off from the island after a 2 hour grind playthrough... I think I snapped the cartridge in half after that.
Oh man I agree with you. If that game had a save or password feature it wouldn't be so bad. But nope, it has neither. Beat that game once and never again.
Wow, the ending to that wrestling game was really messed up! Otherwise really fun video and thank you for the spoiler tags. (I still want to try to actually beat 7th Saga.)
Maybe try game openings or intros next?
7 saga is good
Luckily for you he missed something in the ending. It's still mediocre but certainly interesting.
the boss name was dick slender lol so much going on with that ending
Conglaturation! You have just completed a great game.
And proved the justice of our culture.
Now go and rest our heroes!
What? The ending of the wrestling game sounds *AWESOME!!!*
it's like a true japanese ending (cuz a lot of their shows and movies don't shy away from brutal endings where all the main characters die...)
well, it was written by Suda51
@@apoplexiamusic lol hell yea i love that shit. i hate the same happy endings all the time its too predictable
Seems a bit inappropriate for a wrestling game to me
Honestly, it's one of the most memorable endings in the entire 16-bit era. Few games at that point, and few games even today, will actually end with a truly bad ending. There is no "good" ending - that is the end of the story that they wanted to tell. It must've taken some serious balls to do that.
Fire Pro is more hardcore than ECW
Right? Dick Slender... Hahaha
That Super Fire Pro Wrestling ending developer read too many Shakespeare plays or something...
Am I the only one who got creeped out by the Fire Pro Wrestling special's ending? :P
The background music is kinda creepy and the fact that there's a suicide in a snes games makes it even more weird and creepy :D
It was nice to see that in snes era Suda51 was already Suda51
CabaioMonte Already, not still.
@@DiarrheaIsFun oops, you are right, I gotta work more on my English
Correction on that 7th Saga ending review: that creature you killed at the end of the game (Gorsia), it's literally Satan in the japanese version. And the entity that you were helping and will be born as his descendant (Saro) it's literally GOD. So, you destroy Satan, that managed to destroy your body with his final attack, so god imortalizes your soul, making you his descendant. I mean, it sounds way better than what you told us in the video.
Nonetheless, great video as usual
One thing you forgot to mention about 7th Saga is how convoluted the last act of that game got. So the King who hired you to find the 7 Runes was actually the Evil Demon guy that the King defeated years ago. The Evil Demon guy possessed the King's body and hired the lot of you guys to go out to find the 7 Runes that are the key to his power. After finding all 7, Evil Demon guy returns but God says "You can't defeat him, so I will take you back in time to defeat him in the past... for some reason." So you defeat the Evil Demon guy in the past but that only seals him away for future generations to deal with, but you DIED so you get reincarnated to be the King who defeated the Evil Demon guy in the first place...
WHAT THE HELL!?
Good job with the arrow placement pointing to the timeline, satisfying to see it point to the right time
Wow just listening to you talk about that Fire Pro Wrestling ending pretty much ruined my day. That's gotta be the most F'd up ending ever...
It might be my depression talking, but I love the ending.
I wonder if Chris Benoit ever played it to the end?
The story was actually really good until the suicide part.
Watch the bad ending to battle golfer yui.
@@azinyefantasy4445 The bad ending was so redundant.
One game to mention was Pirates of Dark Water for the SNES. The animated series never had a story ending, so they decided to do the same thing with the game as well.
I was SO mad when I finished that one. I loved that show, and hoped they'd try something different...😒
I don't know if I'd say #1 is the worst ending, just unexpected
But if it was a game that Suda51 worked on then it's honestly just Suda being Suda
He is apparently working on a story for Fire Pro Wrestling World.
Super fire pro's ending is the best, I love it. Its as obscene as the endings on wwf wrestlemania arcade. It makes me laugh every time and is my favourite snes ending.
Man, not only is Separation Anxiety's ending that bad, IIRC you can even get into a brawl with the bosses from Maximum Carnage while the credits are rolling in that game, and it turns into a survival mode. So they went in completely opposite directions with the endings in each game.
Yeah Maximum Carnage was a much better game the only thing missing was a 2 player mode. It's like they added 2 players on Separation Anxiety in exchange for presentation and game play.
Great Video as always! But you really forgot about Jurassic Park. It's not a bad game, but has no password or saving function and after I let my SNES run for two whole days, because I couldn't make it through in one run, all I got was this lousy textbox...
I came here just to talk about that crappy ending. Such a long and painful playthrough to get just a "Congratulations, you escaped Jurassic Park" screen. Oh, man... #Facepalm
Hey, don't forget they play the opening zoom in on the island in reverse.
The Plok ending was a sneak peak of the comics lmao
Honestly, I really kinda don't get why Fire Pro Special is #1. It's a sad ending, but it had a lot of effort put into it compared to everything else on the list, and as mentioned, it's pretty much the kind of way a lot of wrestlers go out. A game having a dark tone doesn't make it bad; hell, the fact that games can deliberately and successfully evoke emotions other than satisfied happiness is probably one of the best arguments for games as a legitimate artform, and it's kind of bonkers and awesome that I'm saying this about a WRESTLING GAME of all things.
That wrestling game ending and entire story is awesome. They should of made way more dark storylines than they did on older generation consoles
sadly this game designer designed the WRESTLINg ending of CHRIS BENOIT even before it happened... did the character in the game kill his wife and kid before the soicide ? Cuz if so it IS the chris benoit ending.
Still praying for the eventual fan-translation of Fire Pro Special. Keep up the great work.
"it's not even half assed, more like quarter-assed"
"Tug of war with Cyclops and he's crying." .... #DED 🤣🤣🤣
I always hated the ending of Jurassic park 1......blergh
Or the PSX Jurassic Park game, where the prize for winning is a video of Jeff Goldblum insulting you.
I agree with all of your choices, except #1, which is a much better (yet sadistic) ending than words & a picture.
#TeamSNESdrunk
The ending for #1 seems depressingly prescient of what actually happens to real world wrestlers.
Tragic suicide has to be the most eerily accurate depiction of reality. All that’s missing is a painkiller and steroid addiction mechanic and you’ve got the worlds first real pro wrestling simulator
I've made Cyclops cry so many times in my life that I should be imprisoned for abuse.
Thanks for showing me the ending for Separation Anxiety because I suck and can never get past the 2nd level.
It's basically YOU'RE WINNER but with Carnage...
My brother and I played that game, and when we finish it, was like WTF is this shit! Jajajajajajaja... xDDDD
@@evilblader7
I never could beat it because I've only played it in single player
@@philcollinshill2951 Ooh... what a shame :(
Cool I just completed 13 SNES without even trying , thanks SNES drunk 🍻
Your description of the No. 1 choice got a good laugh out of me, thanks for that.
And it is a great fun list.
Even Vince Russo wouldn't think up a Wrestling storyline like that. That's messed up, man!
Bro don't give him any ideas bro
Oh he would. Last I saw him, he was running Rocky Mountain Pro and had a man as the women's champ.
@@jesuszamora6949 really damn he losing it
@@dave2518 Is he, though? This is the same guy who thought it'd be HILARIOUS to make fun of a disabled person's disability. Not sure he's ever had it.
@@jesuszamora6949 he's a scum bag
7th saga gave me my first taste of major betrayal. It's been a while, but if I remember right the dwarf took my items, and ran off with them while I slept at an inn. Hard as nails game, but it was fairly unique.
Super fire pro needs a English translation ASAP!
I am far less concerned about spoilers to this video than I was about the last one. ;) But I admire the dedication and service you show to your viewers in providing time links anyways. Great job as always.
Best spoiler system ever
When I saw this video popup, I thought to myself "If 7th Saga isn't in this list, he's going to need to make a second video"
SNERK if you wrote a crossover with a certain PSX game with that Star Trek game, you could have a literal Deus ex Machina
Out of curiosity: are you speaking about the Star Trek game where Q drags you from the future to posses your father's body for a chance to save him (your father) from a time fart? And ALL because Q was bored and felt it would be amusing to watch? He even posses other characters during your adventure just to diss at your failures.
That one per chance?
Sounds like a lot of video games are just an escape from reality, which provide frustration and addiction in the end.
Watching the best endings video the other day I was wondering why the wrestling game wasn't on it. Well, now I know.
I have learned so much! I will include so many of your phrases into my daily repertoire, such as "quarter-ass"! Stellar video, thank you so much! Great video
That Rival Turf ending still gets me to this day. Thanks Snes drunk for all your videos-especially on beat em' ups!
The ending for Karnov on the NES. It just abruptly reads: "Congratulations! The End."
I finished Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts. Good to know I'm legit at something
I just beat it myself finally after all these years. I actually loved the ending despite how simple it was
@@BigDaddyCola I agree, I think the Issue SNESDrunk has with the ending is that it's the same has the original NES game. Just a lazy cut and paste, like my college papers Lol
Oh, come on... Yeah, I agree that using the same format for Super Ghouls n' Ghosts as they did on the original game wasn't the best idea of the world, but... Gotta luv saving the princess, getting a hug and a kiss, riding her back on your horse and even getting to sleep with her...
I mean, on one of your videos about Super Mario World, you kept saying how fulfilling it was to get to know even your enemies' names and all... this ending is really similar to Mario World's ending!
Damb Suda started off the bat stronk in the way left field xD
If you were a Spectrum channel then terrible endings were very standard due to having bytes of memory left for the ending 😂
Impressive how you managed to get the arrows to line up
Really appreciate your weird (to me) midwestern indignation about #1s ending. I agree with you. Just really enjoyed word choice. I like that even tho you use regular swear words, your channel doesnt need to get off on excessive swearing.
Pro fire wrestling’s ending is pretty awesome imo! Probably better than most snes wrestling games.
Dude the ending to super fire pro is effing amaze-balls bro, i mean its a wrestling game with murder and intrigue then ends in suicide... Insanity, yes, but terrible ending? I think not.
I LOVED the Fire Pro ending, what a unique twist to all of the Rocky-style typical wrestling hoopla. Great twist for a fun bunch of games; Suda51 also just had a sequel scenario written for the newest Fire Pro. You play as the protagonist's son.
Man, the Worst SNES ending that always comes to mind for me is Outlander. (Like the video, don't read ahead, if you care): The game's insanely difficult, but cool. You scratch, struggle, and claw your way through the entire game, beat the final boss, and find your dad. He comes at you and says some gibberish, you say "wait...what?", he says more gibberish, you say "oh no...this ordeal has driven him insane...okay, let's go home, Pops", and the credits roll.
Not to mention, the twist actually makes sense (it's not just a twist for the sake of it).
I beat Outlander on Sega twice and that ending is pretty bad. Almost as bad as the side-scrolling levels.
Hella rad how you maid the skip times
Solid solid solid work sir
At least Fire Pro didn't have a secret Chris Benoit ending! 😳
I mean, really it was close enoug haha
It kinda just was a Benoit ending
kek
i'm just now starting to realize that you are a connoisseur of SNES games. i respect your skill!
I feel bad for all the kids whose parents watched them play Super Pro Wrestling and that ending played. WTactualF
Jurassic Park was a very disappointing ending too. Especially with how hard it was to get, and a possible game ending invisible glitch that someone can stumble on in the boat stage after you finish the objective there.
5:30 Plok gets SNESdrunk
I remember playing fire pro wrestling on my GBA back in the early to mid-2000s. I played it a lot but actually I enjoyed making custom wrestlers more than actually playing the main game.
Maybe you need to play the first six sagas before the seventh makes sense.
After having beaten both Top Gear and 7th Saga, I can unequivocally agree with both of these on the list. And I love both of the games.
Some of these are still better than Game Of Thrones 🤷♂️
The cyclops line was hilarious.
lol the ending of top gear the dude looked like the doomguy xD
Chris Plissken The “Doom” guy cosplaying as Ayrton Senna, maybe.
Another fantastic video from SNESdrunk. I only subscribed a couple of months ago, but you quickly became one of my favorite TH-camrs
INCANTATION;
mediocre game / GREAT band
It's messed up for a game, but the end may be the most realistic pro wrestling story ever told on a console...
"Thats like, quarter-assed." Lol I love it.
I didn’t know there was a Chris Benoit video game. This changes a lot.
