Even the games I listed for SNES are just scratching the surface of it's godly library, I didn't even mention Contra III, Castlevania IV, Kirby's Dreamland 3, the Super Star Wars trilogy, Killer Instinct, Kirby's Ghost Trap, Super R-Type, R-Type III, Gradius III, Pop'n Twinbee, Street Fighter II, Super Punch-Out...
Unlike future Nintendo consoles it brought the full force of both Nintendo's incredible first party gems and the best of the world's third party publishers in a single package that was packed to bursting point with top notch content.
It also didn't suffer from the drawbacks of early CD based systems like the PS1; load times were basically instantaneous and both the games and the hardware were durable as an old school Nokia phone.
| VAMatt said: I think the best was Genesis/Mega Drive, by a wide margin. Then its SNES and PSX more or less tied for second. How anyone can vote for any other system is beyond my ability to comprehend, unless they just weren't around back then. |
I was around for it, even played on both SNES and Megadrive. I did like the latter but the former was by far superior; more great games, nicer visuals, vastly superior sound, and a more comfortable controller.
