Just wondering. I've always considered Super Nintendo was the best console of its generation.

hmm tough choice, but I'll agree with Paradise on this one. I remember having a bit more fun with my brother's Super Nintendo than with my Sega Genesis though it really is a tough decision. I did like how the Super Nintendo bumped up from the small hand gun you got with the game Duck Hunt on Nintendo, to the Bazooka you got the a similar game on Super Nintendo. I think we still have the Bazooka somewhere...

The Mega Drive. Too many good memories. Although I did love playing Mario on the Nintendo and Sim City 2.

I'm surprised to see that Sega Genesis is so popular. Most games available on this console were also available on Super Nintendo. There was also 66% more Super Nintendo sold than Sega Genesis.

Super Nintendo had so many great titles:
- Final Fantasy series
- Chrono Trigger
- Super Mario World series
- Super Mario All-Stars
- Legend of Zelda: a link to the past
- Contra III
- Super Mariokart
- Super Mario RPG
- Super Metroid
- Donkey Konk Country series
- Sim City
- Secret of Mana
- Star Fox
- Super Punch Out
- Mega Man series
- Super Castlevania IV
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV
- Super Star Wars series

I don't know which ones are also available on Sega Genesis.

Super Nintendo. This isn't even a legitimate question. Genesis was great, but Super Nintendo was in its own league.

Stay calm...
Concentrate on the screen...
You are about to experience the future...

Never before have you had to cope with advanced 3D graphics,
Three hundred and sixty degree rotation,
Ninety six levels,
Thirty two thousand colours,

Even. More. Enemies.

Congratulations: You Win

The ultimate challenge is waiting.

****

One poll. One choice.

SNES. You know it makes sense.
