While I liked the games from the SNES more, in terms of actual console war, the PS3 era was way more fun. But that's just because as a kid I personally didn't notice much of a fight between SNES and Mega Drive. The numbers on this site say that Sega sold more consoles in europe than Nintendo. But at least in germany, interest in Sega seemed minimal. I still remember seeing a Mega Drive bundle in my local store that was reduced multiple times and still was sitting on the shelf. Nintendo absolutely dominated back in the day, in my sphere of influence at least.
PS3 and X360 were shockingly close and the race really motivated Sony and Microsoft to go great lengths. We were just bombarded with great games left and right, good times. Nowadays we get a fucking loot shooter every now and then and that's it. I kinda miss console wars, I must say.
