Anyways! It's time for a little Retro SNES VS Genesis match! B-)

TMNT: Turtles in Time or TMNT: Hyper Stone Heist?
Super Castlevania IV or Castlevania Bloodlines?
Contra III: The Alien Wars or Contra Hardcorps?
The Magical Quest: Starring Mickey Mouse or Castle of Illusion: Starring Mickey Mouse?

TMNT IV
Super Castlevania IV
Contra III
Castle of Illusion

That sounds about right, 1 game out of of 4 was better on the Genesis :P

@MadAwesomeBooby
Maybe you should swim over to Ristar Island and grab some Strawberry Sonic Shakes while waiting in anticapation for Vector Man to announce the all mighty Sega CD 2 with Ultra Blast Processing!. :p

SEGA!

Anyways! Castle of Illusion is a great little magical gemmy' that i'll never forget(hell i bought it on cart 2 months ago in anticipation for Power of Illusion for the 3DS) when i got with my Genesis Model 1 in the early 90's. Yet I couldn't stand sonic(I payed over $100 for that sloppy boring annoying crap that completely P-A-L-E-D in comparison to the mind blowing Super Mario World), but Castle of Illusion was pretty fantastic. But there's no way in VideoLand it can compete with the surreal and amazingly atompsheric Super Castlevania IV. I don't think any Genesis game can! :p......Maybe Bloodlines? Hehe obvious choice is obvious! :D I'll see for myself this Halloween october when i get it on cart.

Ever wonder why SNES hasn't had another game uploaded to the VC? Nintendo has run out of good games for it. Sorry folks that is all :P

@MickeyTheMega
Sonic 1 of course. I also bought 2 later on which I wasn't crazy over either. I remember renting 3, and while i have shadeymemories of playing it I found that it was easily the best of the 3. Rocket Knight Adventures however beats the Streets and rageall over the 3 sonic games imo.

@MadAussieBiased :p

STRIIIIIIIDERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. :DGenesis kicks Shell, but i've got to admit I never liked using it's sloppy feeling oversized controller. The buttonsnever felt good on it either....A bit too squishy for my liking. And btw the SNES VC just got Mega Man X2. ;) But ya, how was 'World' of Illusion? Another one i rented backwhen Sega was Omega, but as far as memories go Castle easily over shadows it.

@Wave-0-Rama All just a bit of old school shenanigans mate ;) I owned both consoles and realize the greatness that was the epic 16-bit era and the whole 2-way street deal as far as software is concerned while owning a C64 & Amiga500 and pretty much everything under the sun around those times :)

You obviously didn't touch the almighty mega 6-button awesomeness with the D-pad that had all the diagonal points which made games with street fighter moves more bearable to pull-off with less blisterific thumb invasions of the exploding kind :P

I've only received a quarter of my Megadrivian collection via VC and some I didn't even know existed before ;) but there's a big hole in what VC has to offer... Where are all the great EA & Disney gems, what about the sweet as movie licences Robocop & Terminator how bout Outlander & Chakan :( I hope the WiiU can bring me my epic VC dreams ;)

Sonic 1 I can understand, since it's basically a Mario clone, minus the naunces that made the early Mario games good. Sonic 2, though, was great, especially the level design. I love games that have tons of multiple paths, and Sonic 2 has 3 or more in every level. Sure, they all take you to the same end, but it still makes the experience more interesting for multiple playthroughs. Really, the levels in Sonic 2 are perfect in every way. Sonic 3's a greater game still, but I felt its levels weren't well-made as in 2.

Lol So true there Ryno. So than why is it that Genesis games haven't been added to the VC lately? The last SNES game to be added to the VC was in June while the last Genesis game to be added was in May. Score one more for SNES :P.

I'm still waiting for my 16-Bit Mario Paint: Wii Edition. :p
StarFox and Yoshi's Island obviously seem to be the only other 2 unreleases Nintendo SNES VC offerings.
As for Disney and movie liscenced games hitting the VC? Ya...That will never happen, unless we're living in a world full of Neon mullets and clouds made of cotton candy. :o
