it is possibily teh best system ever

Sega had more original games then SNES. SNES just got lucky with all its RPG.

Genesis:

Vectorman 1 & 2
Sonic 1, 2, 3, 3D
Eternal Champions (owns Killer Instinct)
Mortal Kombat (Has real fatality)

SNES mainly because Mario >> Sonic, and Zelda >> *

I liked genesis, but the snes just had so many better games.

SNES. Although the Sonic games are one of my favorite series ever. I like both systems, but favor the SNES.

SNES...
However, Genesis had Shining Force 2 and Beyond Oasis in its favor.

Why do you play NES?

Anyway, Sega had better sports titles. They had WSB which pwned all the SNES games.

Mario can't hold a candle to Sonic series.

Vectorman > Donkey Kong

Sega also had better arcade to port transition.

how could you people say snes shame on you ;)

genesis had sonic 1, 2, 3, sonic and knuckles, sonic 3 and knuckles, sonic 3d blast, sonic spinball. It also had Streets of Rage 1 and 2. It also had phantasy star games, which owned the final fantasy series. add to that the overall coolness of the genesis, and you have a system that is real cool.

This is a heated race for supremacy of classic console.

And yes.. STREETS OF RAGE OWNED!!!

This is no contest. Sega Genesis isn't even fit to wipe the crap from SNES's monkey's behind.

Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasy
SNES also had far better hardware specs.

I also couldn't stand their POS 3 button controller compared to SNES' default 6 buttons.. you had to shell out extra $30-40 for the genesis version. Great marketing guys
