Mortal Kombat had more better blood on Genesis, right?

yeah. the violence put Genesis on top for me.

Though by the end of the generation the SNES games were probably better. And then Sega started pumping out that useless crap like the SegaCD...

Genesis for sports/fighting games, SNES for everything else.

SNES.

I had Genesis first. 1993. I mostly played sports games at that time of my life. I bought a SNES after I got a "real" job as a teenager. 1997 or 1998. I got the classics- Zelda, Mario, Mario Kart, DKC 1, 2, 3.

I consider myself Team Genesis.

The kids I wasn't allowed to play with in elementary school all had Genesis. That's not why I wasn't allowed to play with them, but I think there's an interesting correlation there. Especially reading the type of RMers here who had Genesis. Bunch of drug abusing, nihilistic rogues. All of you.

This thread is going to tear RM apart.

BTW I was a Sega kid, but that was probably only because I had one and not an SNES. The reason I asked for a Sega for Christmas as opposed to an SNES was because I found a Mortal Kombat cartridge on the ground and wanted to be able to play it, so it had nothing to do with the merits of the system or anything like that.

Wow. An MK cartridge just laying on the ground? That was probably like finding a gold brick in the 90's.

Yeah, I wanna say I found it in the spring of 1994 outside of the local high school (I had to walk past there every day on my walk home). I would've been 9 years old. I held onto it until I got a Sega the next Christmas.

That's the best story I've heard in a while.

What? You mean the primary color motif throughout Super Mario World wasn't edgy enough for you?
