Yes they did.  2D fighting games first became popular during the 4th generation those wheren't meant for kids.  Also the Genesis popularised sports games on consoles those wheren't meant for kids.  Also during the 4h generation you saw the introduction of the Videogame Rating Council which would have been completely unecessary if all the games during that period where kid friendly and aimed at kids.  Plus the the two attachments for the Genesis the Sega CD and 32X wheren't aimed at kids.

No they didn't. i was there. Kid games galore. It's what they were focused on. They were following ninty's lead. A handful of fighting games didn't change shit on the overall game libraries. Those type of games exploded on playstation and it was their focus. 

I'm older then you so I was there also.  And the only title on the Genesis that was mainly aimed and advertised towards kids was Sonic The Hedgehog.  Also the PS1 didn't cause the explosion of any type of genere it just made 3D gaming popular.
