Wanna know why the technically superior Mega drive and Master System failed other than crap marketing? Download the game libraries some time and tell me that 99% of them aren't shite whilst keeping a staight face. There are many absolute classics but they're lost in a sea of mediocrity.

For example, I've been going through Nintendos back catalogue, and apart from Super Metroid all their 'classics' suck.

I'd given up on Sonic games by the time 3 came out - I think that was around the time that I got hooked on civilisation.

megadrive = about 7 mhz
a500 is 12mhz i think, but percent to speed increase is massive really

Though I found it a little easy if you went and took the Lightning Chaser (Blue/Green).
For me though the best one is still Sonic 3 & Knuckles, as good today as it was then.
Honourable mentions go to Rocket Knight Adventures, and Sparkster as you just felt so cool playing it.
