The most powerful systems are never the sales leader

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.

I don't know, I just think if a console is not readily available WW, it shouldn't be lumped into a comparison like this. The SNES & Megadrive were the two main, ready-anywhere consoles. And really, even with the Neo-Geo and TurboGrafix 16 present, it means little to the overall point, because the SNES was the most powerful between it and it's nearest rival and won it's gen quite handily.

I'm just saying there's an exception to the rule here.

Eh, I can agree with that. SNK almost completely disregarded the PAL market.
