Why do people prefer the SNES version, which is just an inferior port of the arcade game, to the Mega Drive game, a more challenging remix of the original?

The four characters were just to play modes with different designs. You miss literally nothing.

I agree with OP. SNES game is a downgraded port and now that anyone can emulate the arcade on a toaster there's no point in playing it. The Genesis game provides a different challenge and even if you play the Arcade version it's worth a go.

I'm not defending him, you are once again trying to derail a thread with meaningless accusations, probably because OP's opinion upsets you.

I also advise everyone to add "Australia" to their wordfilter so faggots like you don't get anymore (You)'s in the future and we can finally lay that shitty meme to rest.

No, people also call Australia-kun out when he shitposts on PC threads and regional threads (PALvs NTSC).
He also does have a personal vendetta against Nintendo.

There are other people that might be impersonating him by now, though, but the real Australia-kun exists. The original thread where the nickname was coined is up in the archives, it was a Castlevania thread.

If I wanted to play Sunset Riders I'd just drive over to my brother's house and play it on his cabinet for some fun times with cold beers.

Sunset Riders is better at Arcade. SNES version is a dumbed down port of the arcade game and the MD version is a B-team work, in no way better than the original or the SNES game for that matter.
