Lets be reality, nikkas was fukking with SEGA before CACS started buying up SNES

[Master Teacher]

I remember SNES had better graphics but Genesis had smoother faster gameplay

SNES had bigger sprites and more colors, but not better graphics

There's not a game on SNES with better graphics than Comix Zone on Genesis

SNES mortal Kombat didn't even have blood, SNES was a trash system

look at Final Fight games compared to Street of Rage, Final Fight is ass, the characters are WAY TOO BIG and the screen was too small, and the move like shyt

Streets of Rage has a wider view, more characters on screen even though they are smaller, way better music, way better gameplay

Mario on SNES was trash, Sonic killed that nikka he the top dawg, making blockbuster movies, the 16 bit sonic destroyed every mario game

The last good Mario game was Nintendo 64, Mario had a spark when he started now he just garbage

all them JRPGs on Super Nintendo are ass, JRPGS didn't become a genre black people played until Playstation, that's the real golden era of JRPGs

Nintendo won the war so what is this thread trying to say

 

[Days of Future Piff]

The Genesis had some hot games (Sonic 3+K, Streets of Rage 2, Shining Force 2, Phantasy Star 4, Gunstar Heroes, Castlevania Bloodlines, etc)… but I still think that the SNES had the overall better catalog.

Super Mario World/All-Stars, Zelda, Super Metroid, Mega Man X 1-3, Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy, Turtles in Time, Castlevania 4, Yoshis Island, Donkey Kong Country 1-3, Mario RPG, Earthbound, Secret of Mana, Mario Kart, ActRaiser, Contra 3, Killer Instinct, Street Fighter 2 w/ 6 buttons.

Still the goat system IMO.

Toejam & Earl, Shinobi III, Comix Zone, Ecco Dolphin, Golden Axe, Earthworm Jim, & Vector Man just to name a few more classic titles

 

[Frieza666]

I always preferred Sega to Nincacdo and Sonic to that cuck italian. Its been a lot of blind dikkriding for them from video game journalists for decade now, when was the last console they made that actually had good modern technology

 

[TaxCollector13459]

My big brudda had both segas
The big azz mixer looker one
And the smaller one.

Sonic 1-3, sonic and knuckles, vectorman, streets of rage 2, and beyond oasis make genesis better than snes

Sonic 1-3 its own games and add it to the kunckles port and each become a whole different game. Lowkey goat shyt

Earthworm Jim was multiplat and I’ll give you Shinobi III (). I’ll even go a step further and concede that Earthworm Jim played better on the Genesis since it had additional levels and tighter controls. X-men 2 was another joint that played better on Sega IMO since you had 2-player action and additional characters (Nightcrawler and Magneto).

The rest of those games you mentioned are definitely good, but they aren’t seeing Chrono Trigger, Donkey Kong Country (esp. 2), Yoshi’s Island, Mega Man X (and X2), or Super Mario RPG.

Even the underground SNES joints that went Japan only for the longest were flames. Terranigma, Front Mission Gun Hazard, Seiken Densetsu 3, Fire Emblem Genealogy of the Holy War

Sega had sports games on lock because of its faster processor, but when it came to RPG’s and action RPG’s, the SNES was the undisputed GOAT of its era.

90s Squaresoft >>>>>>>>

I want to say that fighting games were generally better on SNES too. Street Fighter 2 with 6 buttons, Killer Instinct, and the best version of TMNT Tournament Fighters.
Nintendo took an L with the OG Mortal Kombat (no blood? )but they came correct with MK2, which was a better game than the first anyway.

Chrono Trigger's nice bro but don't sleep on Vector Man & Comix Zone lol





And the Shining Force games were pretty nice but I'm not into RPG's much

Unc from NY was sending them bootleg Dreamcast games through

 

[Days of Future Piff]

Man, the Dreamcast was a good system--and I say that as a lifelong Mariohead and a Nintendo fan to the grave. The DC didn't deserve to go out as early as it did. Jet Set Radio, Sonic Adventure 2, etc.

It's a real shame that Sega started falling off with their business decisions in the mid 90s. Sega had a spark when they started but they were doing too much with all of this unecessary extra stuff they kept adding to the Genesis (like the 32x). Meanwhile you had Donkey Kong Country running perfectly fine on a regular SNES.
They dropped the 32x with no games then announced the Saturn back-to-back. Then they ABANDONED the 32x to launch the Saturn prematurely with zero communication between retailers or third party developers, so the Saturn had no games at launch. We all know the rest of the story with the Saturn afterwards ("Bernie Stolar dropped the ball with the RAM cartridge, X-men Vs. Streetfighter could've expanded the market"). We never even got a proper Sonic game on the Saturn because Sega's Japanese and American branches couldn't get along. That international beef destroyed the company from the inside out.

By the time Sega finally came correct with the Dreamcast, they had already burned too many bridges with consumers and it was too late. The Sony hype train for the PlayStation 2 was unstoppable by that point.

To be fair, Nintendo also took a MASSIVE L with the Virtual Boy, which was hot garbage (except for Wario Land).
...But Nintendo REALLY shot themselves in the foot when they stuck with cartridges over CD's in the 90s, however. That move drove third party devs (Konami, Square, Capcom) to jump ship for the PlayStation and directly led to Nintendo getting their lunch money taken by Sony for over a decade.

The only thing keeping Nintendo relevant after that was the strength of their franchise games. Mario 64 and Pokemon were gamechangers, and Ocarina of Time crushed the buildings. But still... the N64 pickings were slim compared to the PlayStation 1 catalog.

Im not gonna lie, growing up I knew ZERO brehs that played JRPGs. The only reason I even know about them was because of EGM and how they used to hype FF7.

JRPG's were a slept-on genre unti FF7 crushed the buildings. Which is a shame because the 16-bit era had some of the best games ever made for that genre. Chrono Trigger, Phantasy Star IV, Final Fantasy 4 and 6, Lufia 2, Shining Force 2, Super Mario RPG, Secret of Mana, etc.

The PS1 had some fire RPG's though.
FF7, 9, and Tactics

From 89-93 every nikka you new had a sega Genesis, you would rarely find a nikka with a SNES, untill about 94, and that was cause cacs was buying snes like crazy. I never owned no damn snes, and really didn't play on till like 93.

Fact of the matter is that sega sega was the better console, but Nintendo had a legacy of gaming that was undeniable, and nikkas started jumping on the Snes bandwagon with cacs

we had both

Parasite eve too, but it was more horror
