- In the late 1980's, the north american video game market was dominated by Nintendo. Many tried to dethrone the king, but only one ever gave it a run for its money: Sega. In part one of this series, we take a look at the origins of the Sega Genesis and how Sega went from a small upstart console manufacturer to Nintendo's biggest rival.
This is one of my favorite wars so can’t wait for this to release
I had a master system and it was bloody awesone. Outrun, the taz game, rocky boxing and alex the kid was brilliant
Love these vids
Good music Double dog!
Legit underrated channel. Amazing videos, please don't be discouraged by your (relatively) low sub count. I'm sure you'll blow up soon!
The war that defined the gaming industry and boy was it something special. Glad i was able to live it. There isn't another generation like this one.
"Hi yo nakayami"
Not sure if ill be in time for the premiere, but im definitely excited!
After sonic heroes the console games are just terrible. The last good 2d sonic games happened on the ds. Sonic is a franchise that died thanks to nintendo.
Sonic mania
Nintendo never caused Sonic to die, it was more like Sonic Team collapsing in on its self you can blame. Specifically Takashi Iizuka.

well thx 4 your awesome video
cheers.🍺
I didnt grow up in the 90s but sega’s history is fascinating
The 90s was the true consoles wars. You had Sega fighting against Nintendo and later Sony jumped in to battle Nintendo as well. I would say it was the golden age of gaming.
Really happy to see you publishing another series. May I ask what your background and job is ? feel free to pm me
Love Sega and the genesis vs Snes was such a great console. Most people tend to forget that the war was between Sega and Nintendo not gamers fighting over who's system was the best. Sega went in on Nintendo do to Nintendo's dirty tactics they used on Sega. Nintendo went as far as to try and keep Sega's master system out of stores and telling 3rd party devs they couldn't port their games to the master system.
Good old Nakiyami
Out of the master system and the Sega megadrive... The Sega megadrive has much better graphics and music.
The master system the music sounds really distorted and the graphics look blocky
Your channel is so underrated. Your videos are amazing!
Funny thing is that Nintendo also tried to release the Famicom in united States of America through Atari which did not want to put out the Nintendo system neither! 🤣🤣
Great content as always - keep it up 👍🏻
It was a classic competition event though I wasn't around to experience the war between Nintendo and Sega. These days it's a lot more complicated between who's fighting who and honestly there's so many games these days that I don't particularly care for either side.
What is the game at the 6 min mark? Im pretty sure I played that game in a arcade 25 years ago and been trying to find it ever since haha
Dude this is great thanks for making this series
The 16-Bit War between the Super NES and Sega Genesis was as legendary as the Monday Night War between WWF and WCW. There was also a time when both Sega and WCW beat Nintendo and WWF a few times in a row before the latter two makes a successful comeback and eventually won the war.
Dang it. Now I want someone to make history of WWE videos. 😂
I always make that comparison as well. WCW during their prime is my favorite time in wrestling. Somehow with all the talent in the world they let the ball slip and WWF started to destroy them in the ratings. The Sega vs Ninteno thing is more complicated because Sony took Sega's target market and then some. I think without the Playstation Sega would have handled Nintendo on the home console front. The Saturn would have had 2 years on the market by it's self. Would have dominated 3rd party sales due to being CD based and Square probably has to move to Sega without Sony.
Sega laid the groundwork for how to beat Nintendo and Sony took that blueprint and excecuted a hell of alot better. So it's never been accurate to say Nintendo beat Sega. Heck Playstation destroyed both Sega and Nintendo. The Playstation outsold the N64 4 to 1 and then the PS2 outsold the gamecube 7 to 1. Nintendo realizing they weren't going to be a player in a traditional home console sense. Adjusted and has found a niche with the Wii and now the Switch which have incredible sellers.
The war isn't over! Too many folks still believe the Genesis had way better sport games, but NHL '94 and Madden '94 onward are fine on the SNES. And then there's ISS Deluxe, NCAA Basketball, Ken Griffey, Quarterback Club, Striker, Stanley Cup, Super Tennis...
Genesis was also good, make no mistake: Heavyweight Champions, golf games, Mutant League games, World Series...
I'm not sure if you mean the graphics enhancing color-enhancing Blast Processing (which was never used) or simply the higher processor speed (which did help with crowded games).
But none of the best Super Nintendo sports games have slowdown: NBA Jam, NBA Live, Ken Griffey, ISS: Deluxe, NHL '94/'96, Madden/Tecmo/Quarterback Club.
I won't move on until these untruths are remedied : )
@Benjamin Owuye Jagun Are you sure?
Feel free to try them out yourself, or look up what people are saying on the internet. Nobody mentions slowdown or slower frame-rates in the SNES when it comes to those games. Yes NHLPA '93 and Madden 92/93 were smoother on the Genesis, but since '94 things were even.
