Sheep have lefted SW, so Genesis wins by default. No more poll hacking in Nintendo's favor. ;)

You're a moron, the Genesis is way more powerfull than the SNES. Just look at Super Mario World; bland one colour textures. Than we have Sonic 1; detailed rich textures with background animations. The only thing the Super Nintendo had over the Genesis was sound, but that doesn't really matter considering the Sega CD was able to produce CD quality music.
Also: 6 button controller! Look it up.

SNES has the best lineup of RPG's ever made, so the SNES takes the cake in my eyes.

I had a genesis back in the day, and loved it. But I can't really tell if its worse or better than the SNES. All I remember was that it was good enough for me back when I was a kid.

As an owner of both, who also imported games constantly there is no comparison here. The Genesis was an embarrassment compared to the SNES game quality wise. If you people think the SNES is better then I could only imagine what you would've though of it if we got all the missing games from Japan. I mean sure the Genesis had some cult hits like Wonderboy, Snatcher, Ristar, Sol-Fece, and others, but they were no match for the SNES's behemoth Japanese line-up.

The genesis is but one of a long line of more powerful expensive consoles that lost to a less advanced console with better games.

Sure the Genesis rocked with a Segacd and a 32x on it but the thing was $600 bucks how stupid was that?

Sheep left because they got a great game that is a worthy end to the metroid sage??? thinking an 8.5 is a bad score just makes you a fanboy.

anyway the SNES is better.

Because SeGa self-pwned by having extra add-on drives and crap. Add-on drives are for losers. Either include it in the system from the get go, or leave it for the next gen.

Pollhakcing in nintendos favour, Grow up, Just cuse you dont like a resultdosn't mean it was hacked.

SEEEEGGAAAA

Cmon, sonic, vectorman, road rash, streets of rage, better mortal kobats (at least MK 1), excellent sports games, strider, golden axe, comix zone - genesis was great. I'm not downing SNES (great system also), but genesis vs. SNES was one of the greatest console wars.

Actually, add-ons were for the ones who chose to buy them, they were optional. In fact some of the best games of that gen such as Snatcher and Dracula X were for CD add-ons. Of course, people that were too young and a SNES was all their parents bought them, are very ignorant about the games on the CD add-ons of the time, so your comment is hardly surprising.

It's such a hard decision; can't we just agree that this was the best gaming generation?

Spending $200, the game line-up that those add-ons provided was nowhere near the worth.

They were actually. Both had a lot of great games, The PC-Engine alone had more than 500 developed games.

And just to mention some of the great Mega CD games:

  • Dark Wizard
  • Vay
  • Lunar: The Silver Star
  • Lunar: Eternal Blue
  • Popful Mail
  • Snatcher
  • Rise of the Dragon
  • Final Fight
  • Bari-Arm
  • Lords of Thunder
  • Shadowrun
  • Captain Tsubasa
  • The Secret of Monkey Island
  • Denim Aleste
  • Keio Flying Squadron
  • Silpheed
  • Switch Panic
  • Sonic CD
  • The Space Adventure
  • Dungeon Explorer
  • Ninja Warriors
  • Shining Force CD
  • Ecco The Dolphin 2
  • Spiderman vs. Kingpin
  • Eternal Champions
  • Earthworm Jim: SE
etc.

I enjoyed them both (stand alone genesis and snes).

I just played more and enjoyed more SNES titles, this would have been even more so had I actually imported a lot of the library only available on the Super Famicom during that time.

i had a genesis, but had played on SNES too and games definitely looked better on SNES. (street fighter hyper fighting, MK2, 3, International superstart soccer deluxe were on both systems and played better on the snes) + it wasn't all genesis controllers that had 6 buttons and the button placement weren't as good as the SNES's.....i liked sonic though...just sonic 2, couldn't really get into the others.
