Sure, I guess.

True.

>Castlevania Bloodlines is better than Super Castlevania 4
Debatable. I prefer IV but both are great games.

>Aladdin on Genesis is better than Aladdin on SNES
I hear this a lot and just don't agee at all. Basically the only reason people ever give is Genesis has a sword. Problem is, the sword isn't fun to use at all. Graphics aren't as good. Platforming isn't as good. Music and sound isn't as good. SNES Alladin is way better.

I own an equal amount of SNES and Genesis games (40-50). I noticed Genesis games are not as polished as SNES titles.

The SNES's best is greater than the Genesis's best. Genesis is better though if you like sports games, shmups, and arcade- like games though.

Qualify this. What makes FF6, a piss easy game memorable for a sad gril with green hair and a le ebit sneezy tornado man and his octopus pal better than Phantasy Star 4?

Because FF4 and FF5 are on the SNES too. The latter is flat out better and the former did more to set the genre's standards than almost any other game.

Oh hell fuck yes, Bloodlines is one of the best entries in the franchise by far. It doesn't help that SC4 is braindead easy.

SNES is superior in every way but Genesis is an extremely good console as well. Both are excellent and it shouldn't be about discussing which is better but more so about enjoying them both. Also, Genesis has Comix Zone which is still one of the greatest games ever made.

>You realize there is literally no such thing as blast processing, right?
Alright first off that was probably a joke, second of all blast processing refers to a technical exploit game developers could use to "blast" information to increase processing speed slightly in certain situations, the term was just blown out of proportion and became a marketing term
>>
>>386254441
Streets of Rage is sillier, with shit like calling for police artillery back up while on a moving train and a fucking kangaroo as a playable character in the later games. It's a goofy ass game that's fun to laugh at but that's all that SoR has above FF.
>>
>>386247675
>Phantasy Star is also repetitive and stupidly ugly.
take off those rose tinted glasses, the early final fantasy games are monotonous grindfests with very little strategy or thought behind gameplay beside your starting classes. Plus for the time phantasy star was a pretty good looking game, and honestly I think it still holds up.
But chrono trigger is good I'll give you that much.
>>
>>386252674

Blast Processing literally doesn't exist. It's some bullshit they made up for marketing. It did have a better processor which is I guess what they were trying to get across. SNES has more color and detail and way better sound though. So Genesis really didn't have better hardware.

I agree, Genesis Shadowrun has to be among my favorite during that generation.
>>
>>386246978
Damn son.
>>
>>386263775
>better action RPGs

Zelda and Secret of Mana, Soulblazer, illusion of Gaia are all better, shadowrun is also on SNES.

>superior run 'n guns
Super Turrican 1 and 2, Metal Warriors and Cybernator.

Treasure is awesome lol.

>better Virgin/Disney Interactive Disney games including the better Lion King

This is the only thing that is debatable and no Lion King is not better on the sega.
>>

>Secret of Mana, Soulblazer, illusion of Gaia
Look and sound nice but have absolutely garbage gameplay. All of /vr/ is in agreement on this. Even the SNES fans.
>>
shitposting aside, genesis vs super nintendo is the only "console war" worth debating. every other gen its very obvious who the winner is unless your delusional or in denial
>>
>>386247176
>>386260540

The graphics aren't even debatable. The genesis version action looks like the animated film. Particularly in motion, and has so much more personality than the snes version.

You're on crack. gtfo and never come back newkid.

The Genesis and SNES Shadowrun games are different games.
>>
>>386264407
people like to ignore wii's runaway sales success though and the war between xbox 360 and ps3 was damn close at the end
>>
>>386264218
>Lion King is not better on the sega.
Yes it is. You can't see shit on the SNES version due to the low resolution and the hitboxes are ridiculously bugged.
>>
>>386264218
Shadowrun SNES and Shadowrun Genesis are completely different games.
>>
>>386264407
Yeah, it's even more obvious when you see how Nintendo has always been revolutionary, they saved the gaming world too many times to count
>>
>>386264730
jesus, imagine being this insecure
>>
>>386264407
>every other gen its very obvious who the winner is unless your delusional or in denial

This war is no different if you were actually around during the era. The only difference is this is a battle of a 10/10 vs a 20/10 whereas other eras there was only one 10/10 vs 7's and 8's.
>>
>>386264816
What are you talking about?
>>
>>386264913
you felt the need to talk about how great nintendo is even though i never said anything negative about them
>>
>>386264583
You're crazy. I own both and grew up with the genesis version and the snes version looks way better.
>>
>>386263775
Beyond Oasis is terrible.

Maybe if it had a better soundtrack it would be a good game, but good fucking god that noise.
>>
>>386264954
Not at all, I just felt the need to state who saved gaming in the first place before any stupid arguments start popping up, nothing more
>>

Shouldn't you be at band practice, Vinny?

The SNES version of Lion King has way less dithering, that much is true, but there are just too many other downsides. It's very obvious that the resolution difference between the two is significant.

Aurally speaking, only half of the music at best could be called superior on SNES. Some tracks are great (like Hakuna Matata) but there are too many dud tracks where the samples they chose sound dull. The quality of the Genesis soundtrack is very consistent throughout. It doesn't reach the same highs as the SNES version but it doesn't have any dud tracks either. But the real worst offender of the SNES version is the sound effects? What the fuck were they thinking? They are completely horrible, and usually the Genesis version has worse sound effects. Not here.

And yes, the hitbox issue on SNES is a very real thing.

>bad hitboxes in Lion King
I wouldn't fucking dare to try that version in that case.
>mfw remembering the logs and the lava level
>>
>>386264218
SNES didn't have Gargoyles. I would genuinely love to hear how Lion King is better on SNES aside from a few songs when it has worse field of view and bugged collision. I will give you Cool Spot being better on SNES though.
>>
>still salty over ancient console wars

Let it go
>>
>>386265970
this. its been almost 30 years
>>
>>386265805
Gargoyles is pretty sweet. And I'm not going to ramble on here about why the snes is better because I don't care enough what you think. Just go look up all the comparisons online and see for yourself. Pretty much everything is better on the SNES though besides Robocop vs Terminator and Contra Hard Corps which isn't a fair debate because it's more of a sequel and it came out years later so it should have been better.
>>
>>386266289
>Pretty much everything is better on the SNES
lol no
SNES has too many fucked up ports like thunder spirits and earthworm jim

the port of toy story had to have a level removed cause the SNES couldn't handle it and the FPS level which was retained was significantly nerfed on SNES
>>
I dabbled a bit with making music for the megadrive and I came to the conclusion that people just didn't know what they were doing. And it shows even in "good" examples of music posted here.
I mean, why is so hard to find stuff with this audio quality for other games?

Who the fuck cares you cunt. You can play whatever tou like since rompacks are like 2gb for the full set
>>
>>386266689
1) FM sound chips more difficult than the alternatives to use properly
2) Most western developers can't into FM and the Genesis had a disproportionate number of western games.
3) Many Japanese developers that worked on Genesis didn't put much effort into it cause the console was virtually dead in Japan. Although when Japan did actually give a flying fuck, the results were amazing.

>>386266289
I love both systems although I favor the Genny because the action games tend to be faster, I prefer FM synth, and the RGB output is generally better. That said, there are plenty of instances where a dual system release is better on SNES, or debatably better on SNES.

But none of that matters. What matters is that you seem to believe Lion King is better on SNES when that is objectively wrong. Fuck the "look up all the comparisons online" thing. Play that shit on original hardware and make up your own damn mind.
>>
>>386246609

The Sega Genesis Home Alone 2 game is miles better than the SNES version
>>
This was the only generation besides the one directly after it that really necessitates having both consoles (the one after really necessitates N64 and PS1).

They're both fucking great
>>
>>386268071
Gamecube's library was better than the N64 though.
>>
>>386268305
Not really. With a few minor exceptions like Melee you had inferior sequels like Sunshine, Wave Race, 1080, etc and arguably Wind Waker and F-Zero GX. And then you had a whole bunch of third party games that the N64 didn't get, but most of those ports were shoddy and loads better on Xbox.
>>
>>386268738
Sunshine > 64
F-Zero GX > X
Wind Waker kind of sucked and I didn't play the rest. Gamecube finally picked up with third party support though, Resident Evil for example.

>>386253238
Zombies ate my Neighbors

>>386268839
doesnt count, nintendo had to pay for those games to come on the gamecube
>>
>>386267461
>Play that shit on original hardware and make up your own damn mind.
I have, a 100 times over. I've owned them both for 20 years and the snes is better.
>>
>>386254462
This was actually good.
>>
>>386268738
N64 didn't have Metroid.
>>
>>386246609
Had no good RPGs
>>
>>386268839
>Sunshine > 64
Nah
>F-Zero GX > X
Only if you thinks graphics are more important than gameplay.

>>386269039
True, Metroid Prime is one of Gamecube's best assets, alongside Melee. But I can't really think of too much else going for the console. REmake and RE4 were good though, though the former was ultimately just a very spruced up PS1 game.
>>
Nintendo lost every generation.
>>
>>386269231
F Zero X gameplay was barebones, GX was a straight upgrade. Track design was way more interesting in GX.
>>
>>386269370
The track layout is in fact very similar between the two games. Don't let GX's fancier backgrounds fool you. GX's biggest problem is the handling and physics model isn't as fucking A1 as F-Zero X.
