Didn't it also have a much larger color pallet due to it's video processor?  Something like 10X the amount of available colors and more able to be displayed at a time.


If I remember correctly, they were both 15 bit color (around 32,000 available), but Genesis could show 61 colors max and SNES could show 256... someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Almost, the Genny was 64.

And "the most powerful console never won" is just an interesting coincidence, not anything to make predicitons off of.
