What multiplatform games were actually better on the Sega Genesis?

>>9679603
What if I had SMD/Genesis, SNES, TG16, SCD, NG and Lynx during the 4th gen? Cuz I did.
Didn't have either Aladdin, tho, and forget which one was the one I liked more. The one that plays a LOT like Cool Spot.

>>9679276
Ys 3 was the first one to come to mind.

Anonymous Tue Feb 21 15:25:59 2023 No.9681613

Fatal Fury comes to mind, I had the MD version as a kid. Plenty multi-platform are better on MD, the argument was that SNES had better graphical and sound capabilites so back then everyone just by default thought SNES versions were better without actually comparing other things, like gameplay.

No. Sega Aladdin sucks ass
>What's interesting about Aladdin is that you can ask a person which game is superior and depending on their answer learn about which gen 4 console they grew up with
Not true. The gaslighting that Sega Aladdin is better is so strong that most SNES kids believe it too and maybe even Mikami himself (though might be Japanese decorum)

Sega Aladdin is an absolute piece of shit in every single way except a few animations and (misused) music rehashed 1:1 from the movie. It's literally trash

With a few exceptions, generally most western games made pre-1995 or so were better on Genesis, primarily because the of the system's success overseas. EA games were generally always better on Genesis. The only game I can think of immediately that was better on SNES was Maximum Carnage.
>>9679646
SNES port plays like ass.

More colors are not a substitute for stretched out visuals and poorer framerates.
