Megadrive Or Snes Which Was Better

[Kerby]

well i have to say megadrive. i would have it any day over the SNES. had one for a few years. i could never figure out the stupid pad on the SNES and i never liked any of the games. did anyone play Busby on the megadrive?

[Blaze]

old fred!

Mega Drive, I used to love sonic! Never seen a snes :!Removed!:

[Jones~32]

SNES for me B)

Good old Mario Kart, cant beat it! :D

SNES introduced us to the world of International Superstar Soccer and will go down in history because of it. We even had the Japanese Version which was called "Perfect XI" & didn't have a word of English on it, then they brought out an English version & the legend was started. It also had loads of brilliant games that weren't available for the Megadrive so it was miles better imo.

Megadrive gets my vote.

Sonic games, plus Road Rash - my favourite game ever!

[steve d]

Snes nothing beats 2 player on super mario kart, addictive, fast, funny and different every time.

[chrisb]

Megadrive rules!!!

Streets of rage, golden axe sonic road rash!

Who had john madden(sp?) american footballLeg end

[Demonic Angel]

SNES all the way

Mario Kart, Zelda, Super Mario Bros.... all genre busting games!

Coolest console on the planet! Much better than the Megadrive we also had!

[Leeky]

I got a better one, which is better....

Sony Playstation, Nintendo 64 or Sega Saturn? :D

I vote Sega Saturn

Had the really quality games that you just didnt get on the other two like Sega Rally/Virtua Fighter 1&2/Dead or Alive/Virtua Cop.

Also the Saturn was actually faster and more powerful than the playstation ....just a shame it was too damn complicated for programmers to make games for... :(

[DarkNeon]

I have to go with the SNES, but I also agree with knowlson about the laser gun for duckhunting on the NES, and the games for the SNES were just classic games.

[Karma Supra]

Snes

Better controllers, cooler gun thing, Mario world, F- zero, Starwing!!!!!!! (or star fox if you prefer)

With the "FX" chip the snes delivered true 3d Gaming... did the megadrive have an equivelant???

I also had a nes

[jaxx]

i used to go outside and crash my pushbike/set fire to things

And you've turned out so well.....

[silvasurfa]

Megadrive all day long...

If nothing else because the joypads looked like Batman gadgets-

Why oh why won't someone make a basic scrolling Streets of Rage for a modern console?!!

It would sell millions of copies!

[earpl]

agreed, the little black lad on the blades used to kick ***** :D skating around kickin ***** + all that and you could pick up pipes and beat on some mother with it!!! what was he called?? wasn't the muppet with the mullet caled axel?

found him!!!!

Eddie "Skate" Hunter

and this was his best attack!!

[DaveSR]

Here here ....... skate ruled !

They should re-release that game!

[Jesper O]

Round my neck of woods the only one to have was Sega. Snes looked as though your sister would want to play it.

In my experience SNES players were real geeks or people who went on to own Ford Orion Ghias

Think its was an early indication of your Chav potential.

Mario...honestly....

*****

[silvasurfa]

Yeah, the kid at school who weren't allowed to watch tv had a SNES- nuff said!!!

Can't believe I didn't mention Road Rash II earlier, as gnome said, one of the best games ever, remember that jump in Hawaii when you had the nitro charged Diablo?!!

You'd jump so high you'd be off the screen for a couple of seconds!!!

AWESOME!!!

Ahem - AND Zelda!

[MarcTS]

I'm a bit torn here because as a kid I owned the megadrive - as did most of my mates, but 15 odd years later, I still have a SNES in the house (it's in memory of my Uni days where we'd get drunk and hit Mario Kart till we passed out :D.... hmmmmm I'm going to have to go for the SNES I think by virtue of me still owning one.

[dead_bodys_everywhere]

i thought they were both a bit *****

[Tom.B]

snes still got it and still use it. Mario kart is THE ultimate game so was world cup striker and many others . As for the 64 a drunken night out followed by 4 player goldeneye can never be beaten either! :P

[JappyBeast]

Mario Kart really is the best game ever.

Sonic is over rated and very shallow, once you had played the first level you had played them all!

Oh and the Megadrive controllers were well cheap feeling!
