SNES games have aged better, the PS1's visuals were pretty warpy and terrible and many games suffered from poor Camera angles and controls, plus long load times.

When you bring this up you also have to remember snes games frequently didn't age all that well either. Huge swathes of its library have massive slowdown problems in ways the sega genesis and even pc engine didn't. And looking back at games shared between the consoles the genesis is absolutely the better platform for  action and arcade experiences. and one of the best case studies is merely comparing Contra III to Contra: Hard Corps. Now thankfully there is the romhacking scene out there attempting to fix slowdown in snes games much like the romhacks to fix the colors in gba games.

Now overall the ps1 is just the far more important and significant product. It really changed everything around it. Snes was just another console that managed to have a better than normal quality game ratio because the 16 bit era was the sweet spot of console games getting close enough to the arcade experience.
