The colors look dull on the Genesis version but even worse is the less thumpy music which can’t compete with the radder sounding tunes on the SNES. While the Genesis version performs well enough that you wouldn’t be losing out if this is all you had, looking at it with a critical eye finds some small differences that gives the Super Nintendo version of Zombies Ate My Neighbors the advantage. The SNES version lands the knockout blow in this round with brighter graphics and better quality sounds.
No differences whatsoever in the gameplay department with both releases acting as carbon copies of each other however the Super Nintendo version comes better equipped with the more appropriate controller helping it to win the round overall. The Genesis does offer an option to customize the buttons but it still can’t compete with the already perfect layout of the Super Nintendo. Even though it’s a microscopic difference, it’s enough for me to be able to tell them apart. Let the battle begin!īoth games feel exactly the same in terms of gameplay but I will give a slight edge in controls to the SNES version mainly due to the fact that Zombies Ate My Neighbors requires 4 buttons which fits onto the Super Nintendo controller’s face buttons perfectly while feeling more awkward on the Genesis. The game was released on the Sega Genesis and the Super Nintendo and offers the same adventure in both titles yet executed in slightly different ways to meet the hardware demands of the console they were being played on. Zombies Ate My Neighbors even has boss battles in it which are challenging and helps to increase the gameplay variety. The exaggerated “neighbors” that require rescuing are all over-the-top and easy to spot like cheerleaders, picture taking tourists and meandering toddlers just to name a few. The game also includes a huge variety of fun monsters to stomp through like chainsaw-wielding Jason Vorhees lookalikes, gigantic babies, slow plodding zombies, etc.
There are several different weapons to find and use such as water guns, soda cans, tomatoes, bazookas and many more in a quest through 40+ stages including back yards, shopping malls and the like. The game can be played either single or multiplayer and there are 2 unique characters that you can choose from ( Zeke and Julie ) but they play exactly the same and only have cosmetic differences. Zombies Ate My Neighbors is a top-down shooter where your goal is to rescue neighbors from all kinds of different monsters in an attempt to find the exit of each stage and move on to the next one.
