SNES or Sega Genesis?

[Doc]

What is your more preferred system, the SNES or the Sega Genesis? I have to go with the SNES, because I liked the games that it had on it more than the Genesis. While the Genesis had great games in its own right (Sonic Spinball anyone?), the SNES had more fun and addictive games. What are your thoughts?

Ha -- both suck! I'm still stuck in the 8-bit era.

But, if you had a choice...

[JC]

Actually, to be honest, I've never played any game on either system -- NEVER. Had one of those handheld Segas at one point. I short of skipped from 8-bit to Playstation. Don't know much about what's between.

[Doc]

Hmm...you need some catching up to do, then...

[Toneman]

It's a tie for me.

Let us compare the following titles:

1. Castlevania 4 or Castlevania (Dracula X)  Versus  Castlevania Bloodlines.. I choose Catlevania 4 and Dracula X....

2. Contra III Versus Contra Hard Cops ... I choose Contra III...

3. Super Mario World, Super Mario Kart, Super Mario RPG Versus Sonic, Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Sonic 3D Blast and all Sonic games for Megadrive.... I choose Super Mario, OF COURSE!!

4. Mortal Kombat I, II, III (SNES) Versus Mortal Kombat I, II, III .. I Choose Mortal Kombat for SNES.

5. Eartworm Jim (SNES) Versus Eartworm Jim (mega drive) ... I choose Megadrive...

Four to one, I think the answers it´s clear... Super Nintendo !! Of Course.... It´s Better!!!

Please post other comparisons and make your conclusion...

My vote clearly goes to SNES. It is my most beloved system of all times. I like it even more than NES. *dontbeatme*

Super Mario World, Yoshi's Island, Secret of Mana, Donkey Kong Country, Final Fantasy IV, V and VI, Dragon Quest V and VI, Street Fighter II Turbo, Super Mario Kart, Lufia, Terranigma,... I could go on and on.

The Genesis was a fun console, but I would have to say that I got much more enjoyment out of my SNES throughout the years.

[Doc]

Same here. The Genesis has great addictive games, though.

Only the SNES could have brought us EarthBound.

I had both, so I chose both. Diversity is cool.

Only the SNES could have brought us EarthBound.

Actually, any system with a 16-bit processor could have brought us EarthBound, it was just Nintendo's SNES that actually did

I've only played a Genesis once at a friend's house (Sonic the Hedgehog, woo!) and it was fun, but I guess I'll have to say I like the SNES more by default.
