Sega vs Nintendo the rivalry
Much like the Super Nintendo, the Sega mega drive was 16 bit, it had an array of really classic games and original arcade ports on the console. Which meant no more spending money in the arcade all the action could be had in your own home gaming. The version of the console you own can be distinguished by the colour buttons on the mega drive. Unlike the Snes (Super Nintendo entertainment system) which is more difficult as the variations are done by way of circuit board upgrades. Both consoles are classic home entertainment systems.
Upon release gaming had changed forever, most games had a two-player mode version available, allowing split-screen mode in lots of games, Some games like Wily Wars you scrolled along with the level together uncovering the action-filled world of enemies around you. Some Games allowed you to play the Hero or enemy, you decided who to control Contra hard corps or champion edition street fighter had characters to choose.
