The Genesis has 16Bit emblazoned on the top of console. That could easily be the end of discussion right there, but the Genesis also pwns the PCE with its "High Definition Graphics". Even the PS3 and 360 can't compete with that. All this time I've been deluding myself that PCE games look as good as the Genesis, or the SNES, for that matter. The PCE has an 8Bit CPU and there's nothing left to discuss; it's simple math: 8 < 16. I don't mean to troll on a dedicated NEC forum, but the truth is the truth. It has taken many years of listening repeatedly to what I thought was misinformation to finally come to realize that it was I who was wrong.

Oh that was good, let us all be delusional in that case!

Who counts bits these days anways? By that logic the intellivision would be better than the PCE! [-X tut tut

You're stupid, ceti.  The Genesis is clearly a 24 bit machine (16 bit 68000 + 8 bit Z80 = 24 bits of MEGA POWER!), just like the Neo Geo.

See? I mean the PCE is hopeless against such awesome power.

The Sega-CD with its 40 bits of MEGA POWER! even further outclasses the weakling PCE.

OH MY GOD, YOU'RE RIGHT!
that blast processing just seals the deal, I'm a Genny man now, how can anything else possibly compete with the juggernaut that is the Genesis?
I mean just look at them, the Genesis is bigger!

I'm so convinced now I'm going to delete my website and wipe all my backups and create the Genesis Software Bible (it'll only take six days, on the seventh I will rest).

Genesis = 7 letters.   PCE = 3 letters.

If you spell out PC-Engine, then you have -4 letters.  Genesis wins!
