Streets of rage was fun to play on xbox with people.

Road rash would have been awesome as a thing.

FUCK YEAH! ROAD RASH! Played the hell out of RRII on the Genesis. Snatching the chain and whoopin' ass with it was SOOO satisfying!

Better games. Better GRAFIX. Better arcade ports. Mode 7. And Nintendo 1st Parties.

There is nothing to talk about.
It wasn't just due to the marketing. When the 16 bit era was in full swing, Nintendo completely solidified itself as "family friendly/for the kids", so while they were busy launching awesome and theoretically superior games on paper, Sega was happy to launch the "darker" stuff and, of course, the blood-laden port of Mortal Kombat. Disposable income coupled with 90's teen angst was a cash cow the big N rarely milked.

They did it to themselves. And that's what really hurts.

In other words; the marketing.
