Why can't anyone ever name a good SNES game that isn't just "the start of this GAMING LEGEND, that's still going today, buy every game in the series, and then buy them again, they're great because it's gaming history!!"?

Genesis had variety.

Shinobi. Golden Axe. Streets of Rage. Altered Beast. Even a bunch of Disney tie-in platformers that were really good. Yeah, nobody is releasing a new one of these every two years, but that's not a bad thing.

loving has amazing music.

gently caress the last boss, though. Told to rush back to the start, and my stupid rear end kid brain went and used teleport card and broke the game scripting that locked me out of the trigger that actually ended the game.

Okay, from what little it could decipher I guess it lets you have more slightly more than 64 colours on a still image? wow, real big achievement, I bet that would've made the games waaaaay more fun :laffo:

A Link to the Past? Who the gently caress needs it? Check out all the colours on this title screen! There's DOZENS of them! :eyepop:

SNES can show 256 at once out of a total of a couple thousand, but I guess that's almost as good

The Sega kids always had hosed up families or something. And you could always tell which kids they were before they even brought up video games.

If Sega hadn't been so mismanaged, they could have come out on top. They made some really cool poo poo, and could have been a real player, but they made a bunch of dumbshit decisions that wasted precious money and time against Sony, which had a lot more of both time, money, and sense.
