That's two different generations of consoles: the Megadrive was competing against the SNES, while the Master System was Sega's previous generation console competing against the NES.
There wasn't a meaningfully successful third console in either of those generations, at least none that I recall me or my friends ever playing!
- bane 14y agoI think the poster is from Brazil, which had a very long and very interesting Master System history, which lasted well into the 16-bit era. But you are correct, the SMS and the Famicom/NES were from the previous generation, which btw also has the same 2 ecosystem feature I've been talking about above. The Atari 7800 came in a distant 3rd to a distant 2nd dominated by the 1st place player.
