I was talking about third-party support in Mega Drive years which was pretty good. As you said, Square and Capcom haven't supported MegaDrive that much though but it was most likely because they were afraid of worsening relationship with Nintendo. MegaDrive had one MegaMan game though. It was re-release of first three NES games in one package. Street Fighter 2 also was there. I think Japanese publishers tried to please Nintendo with not supporting Sega heavily. But, western publishers supported it instead. MegaDrive had lots of western third-party exclusives instead of Capcom or Square games.
P.S. Earthbound is Nintendo first-party game.

Western third-party games were laughable back in the day for the most part sadly. The third-party games go beyond Square and Capcom. I believe SNES got TMNT turtles in time from Konami and Sega didn't for example. There is a reason why Nintendo dominated Sega overall.
Also, Earthbound is only co-owned by Nintendo similar to Pokemon. Reggie said Nintendo doesn't really own the franchise.

If remember correctly, sega got the hyperstone heist from Konami, which played very similar to turtles in time. It’s didnt have as many levels as turtles in time, but was still a fun game. Oh and you couldn’t throw the enemies at the screen like turtles in time.
