>>1302698My brother had the Genesis and I had the SNES. We both played the other systems extensively. I found the variety of good games sifting through multiple genres to be much, much stronger on the SNES. From Mario World to Turtles in Time to the Mega Man X franchise- all the way through to Secret of Mana/FF2&3, Robotrek...things like that made me like the SNES more.
Phantasy Star 4 was excellent, though, and like I said the sport games like NBA Jam and the Mutant League franchise were much better on the Genesis. Also so off-the-wall games were more abundant and inherently more entertaining on the MD.
All in all, however, SNES beat it out for me personally. But like a commenter said earlier in the thread, that doesn't mean I'm not grateful for having it growing up.
