Poll: Sega vs Nintendo

[Vondrakenhof]

Escapists I'd like you to remember a simpler time. A time when gaming was cartoon like and simple fun. A time of innocence. A time when the console war was just a feud between Sega and Nintendo, the Megadrive and the SNES. Everybody loves one of these and I was hoping people would share their experiences, preferences and favourite games of D-pad and 3/4 button fun.

Nintendo! Even though I myself owned a Sega Genesis first. Hooray for 15 year old console wars!

Nintendo Ofcourse I grew up with Mario and all the other Nintendo characters When i was 6 I got super mario RPG, still my favorite mario game, for my birthday and it helped me to learn how to read lol. I hated reading until i could put graphics behind it so yea Nintendo FTW

NINTENDO!! i was a huge nintendo fan about a year ago and always defended it when people said they were shit.

BUT.. after researching all the games currently out for the Wii.. i completely went off them. for the simple fact that about 95% of the games are absolute balls and a complete rip off. there are only a handful of games out for the Wii that are worth it (Mario galaxy, Zelda, resi 4, metroid, etc)

but saying all that. Nintendo ARE better than sega in my opinion.

Nintendo i loved those consoles

 

[RetiarySword]

Its nintendo. They had mortal kombat, street fighter, metroid, zelda, mario when it was good, and the best, killer instinct!

 

[Altorin]

Nintendo is what Genesisn't

i have a love for both, as the mega drive was the first console i got when i was little, but the snes was just awesome!

My first game system ever was the dreamcast and oh how I remember those good times.

I'm disappointed that Sega only has 2 votes. Me being one of them.

I grew up with the Sega Genesis. In fact, I had Sony in my house before Nintendo...

 

[ZeroMachine]

I've been a Nintendo man all my life, but I did like Sega.

 

[PureChaos]

Nintendo all the way, would choose it over Sony, Sega and Microsoft.

Ah the days when people could only afford one console unless your parent were rich. I backed Nintendo back in the days. Super Nintendo was my first console and I owned a Game Boy before that. I still give Nintendo support today when they actually can be bothered to make proper games.

Nintendo!!

Our neighbours had a Sega, so there was super rivalry between our homes,

But we always had the most kids in our house anyways, everyone wanted to play mario or streetfighter.

 

[Da_Schwartz]

I had both and overall i'd have to vote nintendo. BUT Sega had some really sweet games. A few titles that nintendo couldn't touch.

 

[soulasylum85]

definately nintendo. i love all the great games that were out for nes and snes. ahhhh the days when nintendo still gave a shit about their fans.

 

[NeutralDrow]

Sega. Genesis was my first console and still has more games that I like than either of Nintendo's consoles at the time.

For irony value, I currently own only three other consoles: N64, Gamecube, and Wii.

 

[zauxz]

Sega.

I loved it.

I HATE the sega team now tho.

 

[Simriel]

Nintendo. Sega has died. Face it.

 

[GonzoGamer]

I put both.
I played my NES (SMBs, Castlevanias, Mega Mans(Men) more than SMS but later played the Genesis (Original Sonics, Original Phantasy Stars, Castlevania), more than the SNES.
