PCE, SNES and Genesis, screen comparison.

Bomberman 94                                   Super Bomberman 3 (snes)

They both look comparable.  I think either could be done on the other system. 

I am not a huge fan of Bomberman.  I hope that isn't considered sacrilege.

You're the devil.

Seriously though, I like Bman. Great game to pull out when you have friends over. A friend of mine just downloaded Bomberman Live on the 360 because he liked it so much on the Turbo.

The PCE version wins out for me with this one just off the music alone.   other then that, neither beats the other visually.  if you clip the HUD off, they look the same.

BM = PCE, since ever. trash the earlier FC BM and the all the post PCE BMs!!! 0 flair!

I guess I'm the only one that thinks '94 trashes Bomberman 3 visually. Joe is certainly right that both games could be done on either system, but the graphics in Bomberman 3 look extremely bland and generic to me.

[shubibiman]

No, you're not the only one. It's so obvious to me too.

[Tatsujin]

it's more than obvious..it's already xevious!!

BM'94 can only be beaten by BM'93!

[exodus]

yeah, bomberman 93 gives a much better sense of depth and color - likely they did this on purpose to keep the PCE versions the most awesomeeeeee

I think i got the screenshot and system matched up right.

ZX Spectrum looks unplayable.

I've played the arcade Ninja Spirit on MAME several times and it's pretty damn close to the PCE. The PCE port actually looks better in some spots, as you can tell from the screenshots awack posted. The flicker is the main drawback on the PCE.

Yeah, the arcade and PCE versions look comparable, though the arcade version appears to have slightly superior detail.  Everything looks a bit dark in the PCE version.

The ZX Spectrum version looks like it's running on Game Boy.

That could be subjective. Just from that screenshot alone I'm giving it to the PCE. Far better contrast in colours, but you know the arcade version is better overall. It is interesting, though, that the PCE port didn't include the time limit, nor did it have the weapons menu at the bottom of the screen, which is nice to have. Anyway, Ninja Spirit will always be on the top of my TG/PCE list.

The version in the bottom pic looks like an Amstrad CPC game.
