  1. blast processing was a made up marketing tool back in the late 80's early 90's, the bloke from The "Guess who" game should do his homework!!!!

  2. The guy representing is so lost mario is italian! for another in that time the thing was how fun the game was, not the graphics , both consoles were amazing.

  3. lol, I knew you'd be Sega. I was a PC gamer from the start, and always thought that consoles were dumb as a concept, cuz you could do anything you wanted with a PC, but you can only play games on a console. sure, back then consoles were ¼ of the price of a computer, but now it's insanely inflated, and they cost as much or more as a full PC. back then i had friends who had console systems, and I thought overall, that the games that released exclusively on Sega were better, though I did enjoy playing on whatever was at hand.

  4. If we were judging the system's on raw power alone the SNES blows the Genesis out of the water in all categories except for 1 (CPU processing speed I believe, hence the blast processing moniker that Sega smartly used in advertising). That being said I have to give credit to Genesis for bringing the cool factor to gaming culture in that era. Both system's brought lots of great games to the table in different ways. As much as I love SNES I'm glad Genesis pushed Nintendo to do things differently over time in certain areas of the gaming industry.

  5. Super Nintendo wins. Final Fantasy VI, Chrono Trigger Super Mario World, Link to the Past, Donkey Kong Country Super Metroid, Earthbound do I need to keep going?
