3:1 to Sega so far! I can’t believe it. There be some fellow Super Nintendo fans. Shall we all at least agree that Street Fighter II is a much better fighting game than Mortal Combat?

Had a Mega Drive at the time as you could rent games for it. We used to rent a game for a week between us and each person had it for a day. We couldn't afford to buy the games at £40 a pop as kids. Nintendo didn't allow you to rent their games which made the choice to get a Mega Drive an easy one. However, the SNES had Super Mario World, probably the best game ever. I still love Streets of Rage though, my favourite game on MD.

I’ll count this as a vote for both in the fairness of diplomacy. Although very very tempted to interpret this as a single vote for SNES.

Streets of rage - brilliant Sega game in all fairness. Loved the female baddies in the black and red leather Dominatrix outfits and whips!

All over the place! Northwesr, , Southwest

Mega Drive (Genesis) and SNES.

Both had amazing quality titles but I gravitated more to Sega.

SNES had better RPG's with the exception on Phantasy Star IV

SEGA had better shooters

SEGA had Streets of Rage

Sonic was better than Mario

SNES has Zelda and Super Metroid

SEGA had Mortal Combat with blood!

SNES had a better Street Fighter II port

I could go on but don't want to geek out too much

but loved both the MegaDrive and the SNES. Super Marioland, MarioKart & Streetfighter 2 Turbo were my go-to games on SNES and Mortal Kombat, Golden Axe, Altered Beast, Streets of Rage on the MegaDrive. Friend of mine got all the gadgets for his MegaDrive, the CD expansion and some other stuff, seemed really futuristic
