Genesis Vs SNES

Zídanee · January 4th, 2002

So people which one of these old cloassics truly rule?

PS - I vote Genesis.

**fivefeet8** · January 4th, 2002

I have always been a sega fan.. Although I did have both systems with a bunch of games for both..

Nightmare · January 4th, 2002

I think both of them rule. But Snes indeed had more users and fans than genesis.

Quasius · January 4th, 2002

Well, I like RPG's. Although Genesis had a few good ones, overall SNES wipes the floor with Genesis in this catagory.

Carmofin · January 4th, 2002

dunno...
naturally i'd say SNES, but when i think about which games from that time come to my memory first its Toe Jam and Earl and Landstalker...
well, at least here in europe it's the Genesis in my opinion ^_^
here we never got a final fantasy and most of the other RPGs for the SNES never got released here as well.

RZetlin · January 5th, 2002

SNES, Chrono Trigger... Need I say more?

Zídanee · January 5th, 2002

Bah you cant just go on 1 game.........

I could easily say Genesis Sonic....end of story

Jonys · January 5th, 2002

Snes...
Mario....
Zelda.....
Chrono....
Rock and roll racing.........

(well gen haves Sonics and that helicopter games...wich i used to like very much.....but i prefer snes...)

Don't forget to mention Final Fantasy 2-5, all of which rocked.

And to boot, I tried some Genesis emulation once, and I didn't enjoy it.
It's kinda sad that the poll only has 9 votes so far.
All in all, anyone who thinks Genesis is better has been lied to.

**Ryos** · January 5th, 2002

Er...First of all, 2-3 didn't appear on SNES, but rather the NES. 4-6 were the SNES FFs. And there are plenty of reasons one might select the Genesis over the SNES, especially when it comes to sports games.

Zídanee · January 5th, 2002

You see Ryos knows what hes talkign about ...(like i never said u diddnt lol).......and he has also made at least one reply in my last 32 potsts lol (sorry to stray off topic

)

password0k · January 5th, 2002

I meant no offense to anyone (especially a moderator

), but FF 2&3 were on the SNES.

There might have also been an NES version (I'm not sure) but I can send you proof that they were on the SNES.

NuGgEt · January 5th, 2002

No, FF 2 and 3 WERE NOT on the SNES. Final Fantasy 4 when released in America was called FF2, and FF6 was called FF3. So yes, there is a FF2 and a FF3 on the SNES, but they are actually Final Fantasy 4 and 6!

FF 1,2,3 were originally designed for nes. And FF 4,5,6 for Snes.

I think u r confused, the english version of FF4 (japanese version ) is called FF2 and FF6 is called FF3 if i am not mistaken.

Hmm, there is no ff5 for english version?

**Ryos** · January 5th, 2002

> Hmm, there is no ff5 for english version?

Square did not release the original SNES version in English (although Woolsey had already translated at least a large portion of it), but it was later released in Final Fantasy Anthology. We were better off with 6, which, other than maybe BoF 2, was my favorite SNES RPG.

You can also play it translated on many snes emus.. Patch the translation patch onto the Jap FF5 rom and your off playing it in english..

To stick with the topic:

The genesis had the best sports games.. Then there's the shining force series, phantasy star, and many others.. And I wasn't lied to.. I had both systems and I played my genesis more than my snes..

Now I understand, sorry for the misunderstanding.

Also: Super Metroid was a kick-ass game! :laser:

January 5th, 2002

it's true that in europe the snes had about as much rpg's as the genesis had. Still, my vote goes to snes. Sure, I love Sonic, but overall I liked the snes games better.

Yeah, I liked sonic but, seeing at Mario Kart, Final Fantasy III, Chrono Trigger, and many other games... well

Neojag · January 5th, 2002

i remember playing world cup italia or toe jam and earl 2 so well

*sigh* but for RPG lovers (including myself) the Snes is far better...
