Super Nintendo – Super Black Bass Fishing Game

Super Black Bass Fishing for the Super Nintendo

When I think back to one of the early bass fishing games that I actually played for more than 10 minutes, I think of Super Black Bass Fishing.  This was for the Super Nintendo (has it been that long?).  So many of the bass fishing games that have been created since are somewhat of a blueprint of that game.

I will admit, it’s been awhile since I played this game.  My Super Nintendo disappeared through one of my moves years back, so at this moment in time we’re still separated.  I do hope to reunite someday though.

I think you could’ve done the whole game with simply a crankbait or by sinking a spinner bait to the desired depth.  If you jiggled and worked the bait enough, the fish would eventually take it every time.  Then of course that was up to you.  They really tried to get the user to master the pull/tension on the line compared to the size of the fish.  Since it was a game it was way over done.  In real life the fisherman would beef up the line and use power to get the fish in when fishing tournaments, but hey…who said Hollywood or the game world was real life.

There was a lot of lakes to fish and areas to cover.  I do recall myself playing into the late hours on this one.  Just another one of those games that consumed part of my childhood.  Since I like the old school, I’m going to give this one an 8.5 out of 10.  Part of me wants to give it a 9 but the game will be too dated for some to enjoy.
