because it's fucking 50 years old

>>5883472
But it came out 30 years ago.

>>5883469
Because you don't like arcade games.

Fart noises

>only 60 colors at once
>sound chip that could only make piano sounds without farting
It it weren't for Hard Corps, this thing would be worthless

>>5883469
Because it was made before your switch. Before you even.

Come on, anon. I'm a Nintendo fanboy and I still will admit that the Genesis has some amazing games, like Gunstar Heroes, Rocket Knight Adventures, Splatter House, Shinobi, Monster World, Castle of Illusion, Quackshot and YuYuHakusho to name a few.
I agree with the farting noises, though. And that was weird considering that some Genesis games had an incredible soundtrack.

Too many games have fuckhuge characters so you can marvel at the sprite detail but don't take screen space into enough consideration design-wise.

shitty graphics and sound

>>5883717
B-but.... it has Blast Processing!!

>>5883469
Why are you a fat fuck

It wasn't that bad. Its extensive library of football and baseball games is only rivaled by the N64's selection of racing games.

>>5883469
it was literally a souped up master system

>>5883868
>literally a souped up master system
it had as much in common with the master system as the snes has. megadrive was based on sega's arcade hardware, you dense cunt.

>>5883521
>I love my NES with its 25 colors and grating fart soundchip

>>5883887
Cope

>>5883589
>too many mutt games
ftfy
most japanese developed mega drive games actually had small character sprites. hell even on multiplat games, the mega drive version's were smaller.

>>5883868
Breaking News! Super Nintendo is less powerful than a Master System! You heard it here first on /VR/!

>>5883868
Shit you are tarded

>>5883589
If anything that is less of a problem on genesis as compared to SNES due to genesis having the higher resolution. This is most apparent in multiplat games such as Pitfall. SNES version has a significantly smaller FOV.

>>5883469
>B-b-but muh Mario and Zelda! Muh Mertroid and slowed-down sprite action! Muh Chrono Trigguh! Muh colors and sampled sound with reverb!
Cope, Nintendrones.

Is having a lack of slowdown what kids call mediocre these days?

>>5883469
Because you are playing the mediocre shit games that people tell you to play. The real question is, where is your spine OP?

>>5883547
this

I think it's harder to get into the MD than into the SNES.
A console is only as good as it's games. No Mario, no Zelda - not to say there are no good MD games but none of the amazing titles lived on with still standing IPs - like Mario or Zelda for example.
That's probbaly what makes it less interesting for people that didn't grow up with a MD/Genesis.

>>5884854
>muh grafiks and sownd iz all dat mattuz
Guess who's missing the entire point of video games? Zoomer-tastic, zoomer spastic!

>>5883469
Because you play shitty american sports games?

>>5886003
I guess the point to you is being a huge faggot and if you don't reply to this post your mom is going to die tonight.

>>5883469
It isn't.
Stop being a colossal fgt.

>>5885969
>IPs
Do not use this word unless referring to internet protocol. You have been warned.

Because you have shit taste.

>>5883521
Hard Corps is the best game on the console, but Bloodlines and Rocket Knight and a small handful of others are essential too.

>>5884854
NES is probably the best-sounding console, and its library makes the Genesis look like a joke.

>>5883521
>only 60 colors at once

this shit was inexcusable for a home console released in 1988

early games were fine due their simplistic nature, but mid-late releases tried to make up for the lack of colors with a fuckton of dithering

>>5886374

Intellectual Property. It's a common abbreviation, maybe not in the IT sphere but in copyright and trademark law - as well as gaming.
Get used to it, sperg.

>>5886374
I was a SNES kid but I always liked the dithered look on some MD games. Like Vectorman and Aladdin.

>>5883469
Why do you suck cock?

>>5883469
Same thing SEGA kept doing again and again til it went out of the console market.
>Hey, let's put out a KILLER console before EVERYONE ELSE! BWA HA HA!
>Put out killer console before everyone else
>4 months later here's the competitor's way, way, WAAAAAAAAAY better console
>Goodbye SEGA

Happened with the Master System, the Genesis, the Saturn and the Dreamcast then they gave up.

>>5886007
My mother is already dead. I know this for sure because 'twas I who raped her to death. That fucking bitch. Also, this doesn't make any sense:
>I guess the point to you is being a huge faggot
Am I to infer from that comment that all those who enjoy a game because of its playability have homosexual tendencies? Strange little maggot you are. I want to drop a piano on you, and then I want to beat what's left of you into pulp with an Acme mallet. You odious shit. You serial hamster botherer. You honk of a pedo clown's nose. May the fleas of ten thousand camels infest your armpits.

>>5883484
1990 was 70 years ago

>>5886587
>4 months later here's the competitor's way, way, WAAAAAAAAAY better console
Nigger are you even trying?
>Happened with the Master System
Guess you really aren't.

>>5883469
Because your mom and dad never loved you and you take pills you make your dick fall off. Faggot.

>I am a Literal Larping Zoomer Who Wasn't Even a Sperm in My Dad's Nutsack in 1988: The Post: The Movie
Damn near every arcade arcade and even PC game was rife with dithering intended to be blended with analog signals. A cursory glance in MAME with games from the late 80s would show you this, but I understand that being a zoomer you need to act like an authority on shit you've never even experienced second hand.

It's because a lot of composers had to use shit like GEMS

>>5887138
>It's because a lot of western composers had to use shit like GEMS
Ftfy.
And even by 1995 composers were able to makes GEMS come through, don't rely on third impressions of zoomers who their info from Nintencuck autists.

Fuck off bass and guitar are the only instruments in GEMS that don't completely suck -toejam & earl also uses it. And even then it sounds utterly pathetic next to metal squad

Don't bother, nintoddlers are brain dead cult faggots. Just laugh at them and move on.

>>5887164
It's not a nintendo vs sega thing, it's a GEMS was a pile of shti and americans are talentless hacks type of thing. Jesus check your insecurity, tranny.

What?
It's shameful that teachers encourage kids to use wikipedia as a source these days.

>>5887224
Just show us where the GEMS soundchip molested you and when that made you decide to chop your dick off, transnigger.

because it was the budget system
it'd most overrated console ever if sega hadn't gone on to release two more

>>5887268
who would be more credible than actual human beings?

>>5883469
Its actually way better overall but snes has mario and zelda

>>5887286
Anything touched by American AIDS is corrupted and unholy. By the way it's a sound ENGINE not chip.

>>5887353
(You)

>>5883469
it used plain old off the shelf hardware in an economical way, crappy low resolution texas instruments VDP (meh) low end FM chip (meh) 7.6mhz 68000 (not even 10 or 12mhz? why?) basically it was weak and uninspired. possibly hindered by a backwards compatibility requirement to the master system also.

>>5883469
Your taste in games sucks obviously.
