Let’s face it, despite how uber-popular the SNES is, it doesn’t receive a lot of homebrew, especially when compared to the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, and its older brother, the original NES. Both of those classic consoles have received more content over the last few years than newer consoles like the Nintendo Wii U. Even PC […]
