It was actually the advertising departments that were running a war. Sega mostly but a little from Nintendo also would put out print and TV ads that would really bash their competitors.

Sure they can, I believe there was even a game where Famicoms have Wars to settle their disputes of which Famicom is the bestest one out there!

It mostly Sega bashing NIntendo, Nintendo only replied when they kinda went nuts and started making ads offending not just Sega, but almost anyone over 12.
(stuff like a Nintendo Power ad with a huge jar full of toenail clippings. And perhaps most infamous the EarthBound "This game stinks" ads that many fans will argue deterred sales.)

Also been on Nintendo's side. Been a Sonic fan too though...but that really started after Sonic Adventure 2 Battle for the Gamecube anyway.
SNES vs. Genesis was the days though. I really don't like Sony for one thing.
Kind of cool to know that ultimately, Nintendo won the war against Sega...even though now I like Sega, and the enemy is Sony.

Well, for one thing, Sonic probably would've been added as a secret character in the Dreamcast port of the cult GameCube classic: Super Smash Bros. 2: Melee Battle.

Ash: Professor Oak, how's your Bulbasaur?
Prof. Oak: Oh, it only hurts when I sit.
...
Prof. Oak: It's only Chansey if Krabby won't let go. Bye, now.
Ash: I don't think I'm going to call him anymore.
