So what? It still was very succesful and was more powerful than the Mega Drive.

So generally a business wants to do better, not worse, as it goes along, especially if it expanded into new markets.

Its an unfair comparison, NES had a lot more time in the market and not really a lot of competition. The point is that not always the most powerful console loses the consoles wars as shown by the Super NES.

The two systems had comparable time on the market ('84-'90 for the NES, '90-'96). There were an abundance of systems to rival the NES; you haven't heard of most of them though because the NES was so dominant. The SNES base unit is largely considered to be inferior in terms of graphical power to the Genesis. And the point, or at least my point, was not that the most powerful console always loses.
