SNES vs. Genesis by a gap that's really hard to communicate.


I was just a kid, and I was oblivious to console wars back then. My older brother owned both consoles and I would just play whatever games that were available. If only I could have maintained that innocence.

 

 

OP, I'm going to attribute my choice of greatest rivalry to my own personal experience- the moment it finally dawned upon me that consoles of choice created something ugly known as console wars . mid to late 90s, PSX vs N64. God I can still remember classmates fighting over what was better during lunch. It just got ugly. It came down to if someone owned one or the other, that was the better console and the other person was stupid for owning the opposite. Even if you were casually talking to someone and mentioned a console you would get snarky remark about it.

I guess the next war was Dreamcast vs Gamecube vs PS2, but I was safely living overseas in that time, away from the cruel console battles ( I didn't even realize sega was still releasing consoles at this point, shows you how much I know).  But Only to come back to the current console wars, that I'm a part of. I wish I never visited this site in 2007!
