But the console wasn't readily available for purchase like the SNES & Megadrive were. Many people to this day didn't even know that thing existed at all, let alone during one of the most memorable generations on record. Wasn't the TurboGrafix 16 a 16-bit system? Well, it too wasn't readily available like the main two. In that sense, the SNES being more powerful proves an exception to the topic. |
It wasn't readily available in the US and Europe, where it got its face bashed in by the Genesis that hard that they didn't even bother to put up a fight. It erased the Genesis in Japan however.
Also, as for advertising for NeoGeo etc, do you know the show Icons? It used to be on G4 I think and they had a whole episode about NeoGeo. It actually had a good ad campaign.
