Which kind of raises a good question, I think. Why WAS there such a big gulf between what was in the arcade and the home systems, at the time? And why did that chasm go on for so long?

The Neo Geo seemed to be very powerful compared to the SNES and the Mega Drive. But it was much more expensive and thus few people had one.
PS: For the record, I call it Mega Drive out of habit since that's how it's known here in Europe and also in Japan. I don't have a problem with the name Sega Genesis at all. The name "Mega Drive" just automatically comes out of my fingers.
I refuse to bend the knee on calling football "soccer", though.
