I am wondering if there is some kind of website or list comparing game-titles that were both available on the SNES and Genesis/Megadrive and which had the best version?
Even better are your personal opinions.
What differences were there between the Snes/Gen versions of the same game?
For example, was Mortal Kombat games better on Genesis than SNES, and why (blood)?
edit: or was that only for the first game in the series?
Are the EA Sports titles all better on the Genesis because SEGA was more supported by EA than Nintendo?
Is it the same with titles like the Strike series?
What opinions do you have of these kind of games?
And I mean all games that were released on both platforms, for example EA sports games, license games, Disney games, sports and racing games, platformers, action, puzzlers etc.
Hope to see some input.
For reference, here's a list of games available for both systems.
I will put an (*) next to the titles that are actually 2 separate games for each system.
