Am I wrong to love how similar this thread is getting to the lunchroom conversations from the era?

I think a lot of adults have found a nice home on the Genesis because of its acessible arcade and Amiga ports. I'll love my SNES all the same, even if its arcade ports don't get the same recognition as Shinobi. Games like Magic Sword, King of Dragons, and Cybernator are every bit the equal, though, but 16 bit shooter fans are screwing themselves by not having Turbografx or PC Engine Duo. Yep, Musha, Axelay, and ThunderForce are great. Play the Star Soldiers, Blazing Lazers, Gate of Thunder, Spriggan, Gradius II, Salamander, R-Type Complete, Air Zonk, L Dis, Sapphire, etc. and then try to tell me how good Sol Deace and Sub Terrania really are.

They all suck truck nuts at 3D out of the box. All of them. If that is why you play a 16 bit console, you might be confused.
