I always felt that the Genesis was for casual gaming (NOTE: I do not mean casual gamers per se) where the SNES was for more involving gaming.
The Genesis did have a lot of great games, but they weren't very deep games, much like the few sega games that come to mind today are. They will give you a great sense of enjoyment, but I could only play them for short periods of time.
While the SNES had its share of games like this (all systems do), they never felt as good as the Sega casual games. Where the SNES excelled was in its more involved games such as Super Metroid, LTTP, and the RPGs (I didnt really play any of the rpgs, but the consensus is that there were a lot of great ones).
Shining Force, Shining Force II, Zero Wing, Light Crusader, Warsong, Pirates Gold, Sorcerer's Kingdom, Exile, Wanderers from Ys: Ys III, Rings of Power, Traysia, Shadowrun, Langrisser II, Crusader of Centy, Streets of Rage 1-3, Sonic games... hmmmm... any of these ring a bell?I always felt that the Genesis was for casual gaming (NOTE: I do not mean casual gamers per se) where the SNES was for more involving gaming.
