Story Breakdown: Wayne's World (Super NES)

One of the best parts of a video game is the ending, but who has the time to go back and play through every game? Let me introduce you to Game Over: The Early Years, the weekly show where we dive into classic games and spoil both their stories and endings. From the biggest hits to obscure classics, we're taking a look at some of the best and most memorable conclusions in video game history.

Today we're celebrating the 25th anniversary of Wayne's World by suffering through the Super NES video game. Yes, this is a terribly generic 2D action game that barely resembles the Saturday Night Live sketch, but the way it tells its story is definitely worth paying attention to. What's more, it has a 5 minute long ending that features a total of three Top 10 Lists. Three! See what I'm talking about when you watch this episode of Game Over: The Early Years.


Still want more endings? Then I recommend you discover 23 Endings: The Early Years, the holiday series that ran during the 2017 holiday season. We cover Ninja Gaiden, Street Fighter II, Super Mario Bros. 2, Ghostbusters, Golden Axe, Metroid, Double Dragon, Flashback, Final Fight and many more!

And while you're just clicking on stuff at random, I suggest you head over to the Defunct Games YouTube page and subscribe to the channel. We're posting new episodes of Game Over: The Early Years every Monday, along with brand new game reviews throughout the week.
