The Sega Genesis had way better beat 'em ups and arcade ports. Games like Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, X-Men II, Mortal Kombat, etc.
The SNES had way better RPGs and platformers. I put in a lot of hours on Super Metroid, Yoshi's Island, Super Mario RPG.
What was better really depends on what you wanted out of the console. As a kid with two brothers, I think the Genesis was the better system for a multi-kid household.
