Literally marketing nonsense. The Genesis on paper was less powerful than the SNES in pretty much every aspect except for the CPU clock speed, where the SNES had a 2.68 MHz processor versus the Genesis’ 7.67 MHz, so the Genesis had a superior clock speed but clock speed wasn’t something you could directly compare as they were entirely different processors. Marketing took this speed difference as an advantage though and rolled with it.
