And marketing ahead of its time that attracted the precursor generation of the 'dudebro'. So what?

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

There is nothing to talk about.

Sonic,Plus all the sports games ran faster on the Genesis. What killed Sega was how badly promoted and managed the Saturn was in teh USA. Then how easy it was to copy games on the Dreamcast. In both the 8 and 16 bit eras the Sega home consoles were more powerful. Just in the 8 bit era they got off to a late start.

Just like your sales comment (Genesis sold more than SNES? LMFAO), this information is incorrect.

The Genesis had a faster processor than the SNES. The SNES had far better video and sound chips. The Genesis could display 256 colors on screen at a time out of roughly 65k possible colors on their palette; SNES could display them all on screen out of roughly the same number of colors (65k). The only benefit Genesis had was that raw processor speed, which allowed some games to run a bit faster but at the cost of inferior graphics/sound.

This shouldn't even be a question, the SNES came out like 2 years after Genesis, of course it was the more powerful system. The SNES had a plethora of features that the genesis never had as a result.
