Your Nintendo dream list

[Weltall]

That game has some very nice 2D graphics.

Seems like I've heard about this game before...

I've posted about it a few times before here.

Several years later Disciples 2 is still my choice for the PC game with the best 2d graphics and artwork. That game is just so beautiful...

But still I do think that the SNES is 'good enough'. Games just don't have to be the best looking to be the best... yes better looking is nice, but SNES graphics are good. Go ahead and improve the graphics, but it won't really make the games any better, it'll just make them prettier... compared to NES to SNES, where you really can inprove the gameplay by making the graphics better. Now resolution, yes, increasing that can really change a game, but that's going nowhere on consoles until everyone has HDTV.

Disciples does look very pretty indeed.

The reason SNES isn't good enough is because even standard TVs can display better than what the machine is capable of. Rhapsody is 640x480, which is, give or take, what most SDTVs use. SNES again is also limited in color pallete, which is another big crutch.

I think SNES was great, and good enough also, at one time. Even now the games are not ugly by any means. But that time of the graphics being adequate is quite past us now. Now it's good enough for handhelds. But SNES ceased to be 'good enough' somewhere around the time Castlevania: Symphony of the Night came along and did things the SNES could never do.
