I remember those commercials. Sega was pretty good at "attack ad

Yes they never told us that the Game Gear was a "Battery hog"

Lol at blast processing. I think about this commercial when people try to tell me that DVD is more powerful then Bluray.

Someone actually tried to make that argument. wow.

Also, what's really funny about that first video is that the SNES was overall more powerful than the Gen.

At the best i'd guess someone just said that seek times on DVDs are better then Blu-ray since 360 has a faster reader.

We all know the snes had the superior video processing. Blast processing was about the CPU. As for the rest... of course every company is going to say the best games are on its system.

Yes

Even on Youtube you could see that the clockspeed on Genesis did nothing to improve the quality of its games. SNES was better quality in every way.

Pfft, obviously those were sucky developers who couldn't tap the full potential of the Genesis and unlock the power of Blast Processing. Why, with Blast Processing, Street Fighter could have been 10, no 20 times more awesome but they had to make it multiplatform on the clearly inferior Super Nintendo. Heck, Turbo was only going a 10th of the speed it could have been running at had it been on the Genesis and used Blast Processing.

I only had that problem until my parents decided that they were tired of buying me batteries. So they bought me a battery pack and then I played the Game Gear all the time.

I have a battery pack too, but it's almost as big as the Game Gear. Anyway here's another classic Sega Commercial

They even put a VHS in some magazines to promote the Sega Cd games. I remember Time Gal, I saw the pictures in a magazine and was really excited to get that game because of the graphics ....... then I played the game and was really bad.
