While Sega does put up a good fight, and absolutely deserves it's place in gaming history. Nintendo really is the uncontested, and seemingly unbeatable champ. While the companies targeted demographics have always been on the younger side, they have managed to create franchises beloved by all ages.
The Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), commonly shortened to Super NES or Super Nintendo, is a 16-bit home video game console developed by Nintendo that was released in 1990 in Japan and South Korea, 1991 in North America, 1992 in Europe and Oceania, and 1993 in South America.
Here are all 42 games Sega has confirmed for the Sega Genesis Mini:
- "Sonic the Hedgehog" (Action/Platformer)

The Sega Genesis, known as the Mega Drive in regions outside of North America, is a 16-bit video game console that was developed and sold by Sega. Licensed third party re-releases of the console are still being produced, and several indie game developers continue to produce games for it.
