This is a capture of me playing through Terminator 2: The Arcade Game on the SNES. This is not an emulator. This footage was captured directly from my Super Nintendo using an actual T2: The Arcade Game cartridge. I'm playing using the Super NES Mouse.

Here's some new 60 fps footage to replace my older playthrough.

Even though I've uploaded footage of me beating this game with the Super Scope, I felt like showing off the other peripheral that you can use with T2: the Super NES Mouse. A couple years ago I acquired a new copy of Mario Paint, and I decided to put the included Mouse to use with some other games. T2 was an obvious candidate.

I'd definitely recommend using the Mouse for this game since it gives you a far smoother and faster cursor compared to the standard SNES controller. Unfortunately, the cursor speed is still a bit slow overall and there's no ability to adjust that functionality in-game (unlike Operation Thunderbolt). But despite this setback, the Mouse easily beats a D-pad any day.

In comparison to the Super Scope, however, the Mouse still falls a little short. The Super Scope can move much faster than the Mouse and you can use the sights to help direct your shots. The Super Scope also gives you more of a true arcade feeling. But one benefit to using the Mouse is that you don't have to play with the game's altered color palette (unless the other player is using the Super Scope), so the graphics will feel closer to the arcade.

Recorded with the Hauppauge HD PVR and the official SNES S-video cable at 60 frames per second. I used a Toshiba model D-R550 DVD Recorder to upconvert the SNES's native 240p signal to 480i so that the Hauppauge could capture the console's audio/video signal.
