Censorship was less severe on Sega systems than on Nintendo's, for one.

For two, yes, SEGA generally developed more non-kiddy games than Ninty.

For three, grow up manchild.

>4th gen console war

The only winners were the idorts. It was the best video game era, if you didn't own both systems back then, you missed out. It's too late now, since most of it is probably spoiled for your retarded fanboy mind.

Anyway, speaking about "kiddy/childish" games and what not, is there any Sega-developed game with a title screen as gruesome as Super Metroid's? With bloody corpses lying on the floor and all.
I know there are some 2nd party western stuff like Eternal Champions but Nintendo also had Killer Instinct back then, but I'm talking about actuall Sega of Japan-developed game.
Because most Sega games I can think of are either kiddy (Sonic, Alex Kidd, Fantasy Zone, Castle/World of Illusion, etc) or "adult" but very sober and more like "E for everyone" like OutRun, Virtua Racing, etc.
I guess brawlers like SoR and Golden Axe are more like it, but they still aren't as dark as Super Metroid's title screen.
I might be forgetting something though, I mean, it's SEGA we're talking about, they must have something even more gruesome than SM's title screen, right?
