SNES Vs Genesis

Why SNES is superior: 1. Sales: Here is what we know in terms of the SNES's objective superiority: Sales: SNES outsold the Genesis by 49.10 million units to 40 million units. http://en.wikipedia.org... http://en.wikipedia.org... Clearly, public demand for the SNES was higher, and numbers don't lie. In terms of games, Super Mario World sold 20.60 million to the Sonic the Hedgehog 1's 15 million. http://en.wikipedia.org... http://en.wikipedia.org... The stats just go down hill from there. Objectively speaking, more people bought the Super Nintendo and its games over that of the Genesis. 2. Tech Also, the SNES, coming out later, had the advantage of Super-ior (haha) technology over the Genesis: http://web.ics.purdue.edu... The Genesis beats the SNES in CPU speed, Internal ROM, Synthesizers, headphone output and backward compatibility, yet the SNES wins in RAM, Sound RAM, Audio, possibile colors (32,768 to 512), simultaneous colors possible (256 to 64), onscreen planes, maximum simultaneous sprites, maximum sprite size and display resolution. The only area the Gensis is superior to the SNES in terms of actual gameplay is in speed. Otherwise, the SNES wins every time. It is true that the Genesis was able to beef its system up with add-ons, but they were generally commercial flops, and I personally never knew anyone who actually had them. Even if you take Sega CD and Sega 32x as counting as part of the "Sega Genesis", these were commercial flops, whereas the SNES itself was able to bend its technology to make such amazing games as the Donkey Kong SNES series, Mario RPG and Yoshi's Island. 3. The Pro's supporting evidence Exhibit A: "you can have Mario, the genesis has sonic" Rebut: It is true that the boss battles may be better on Sonic, and it is absolutely true that it is faster, but consider the boss battles of Super Metroid, in comparison. And Supermetroid is incredibly epic, as far as 16 bit games go. And what about the boss battles and epic nature of Megaman X-X3? This is a cartoon game which I would argue beats Sonic on almost all accounts except for "speed". Exhibit C: Multiplats. It is true that some Genesis games were better, but it is not true in all cases. Killer Instict was far better on SNES than Genesis, as was Earthworm Jim and Street Fighter. Likely, for every game which was better on Genesis, there is another game on SNES to equal it out, if not exceed it. Yet the people's preference was for SNES as a whole. Exhibit D: Sports games --- I have no idea on this one. However, what about racing games? Mario Cart (as a 2 player, not a single player) and F-Zero are simply the two best racing games of that era. Exhibit E: Arcade games - maybe. I dunno. It's not enough to make it superior though. Thanks for watching!
SNES Vs Genesis

While there are alot of great games on the SNES, the genesis has alot of underrated games that are never mentioned nowadays, you can have Mario, the genesis has sonic, whose faster gameplay and better boss battles makes it a far more epic and fun game in my opinion. While the SNES owns the RPG market, i'm willing to accept that, the genesis has a lot of underrated RPGs which in some ways are better than what the SNES has to offer, including the phantasy star series, the incredible shining force series and beyond oasis makes the genesis lineup great. The genesis also has better multiplats, such as the batman and robin game, the aladdin game, castlevania bloodlines, the better contra game etc. If your into sports games the genesis is for you, with joe montana football, monaco and other great games. If you want action platformers the vectorman games on the genesis is for you, another underrated game on this system, as well as that there is columns the best puzzle game of the 16bit era in my opinion, there are also some arcade ports on the genesis not available on the SNES like altered beast and bonanza bros. As well as having the superior beat em ups with streets of rage and golden axe. THis is my argument as to why the genesis is better than the SNES i look forward to my opponents reply

Australia Day should be changed from January 26th to another date

Before my opponent suggested that Australia day is a time of grief and sadness for the Aborigines but in fact it is a happy day that should be celebrated as we now reconcile with the aborigines and reflect on how we acted towards them back in the days. Australia Day (26th) is a very historical day as it is the anniversary of the arrival of the first fleet of 11 convict ships from Great Britain and the rising of the Union Jack at Sydney Cove commanded by Captain Arthur Phillip, in 1788. Although Aboriginals call this day "Invasion Day" this was when Australia actually became Australia. Countries, for example America have their "National Day as 4th of July" because it was when they received their independence from Great Britain.
Australia Day should be changed from January 26th to another date

My opponent talked about how Australian's have done a lot to reconcile with Indigenous Australians, but my opponent failed to mention how Australia day brings sadness to the Aboriginal people as January 26th 1788 was the day their land was officially taken off them. My next point is that, Australia day is a day of grief and sadness for the Aboriginals. Between 1788 and 1900 the major effects of European settlement took place. Colonisation came with it"s horrible impacts on the native people of Australia and occurred in stages. The major killer of Aborigines was disease, Europeans brought smallpox, influenza and measles to populations of native Aboriginal tribes that had never encountered diseases before. Quickly these diseases spread through densely populated Aboriginal tribes, claiming many lives. As well as this European settlers didn't recognise Aborigines as owners of the land and quickly began farming and building infrastructure while not considering Aboriginal culture. Europeans also brought alcohol and tobacco to Australia and Aborigines soon became addicted and lost touch with their culture. Not only does Australia day bring back days of sadness for the Aboriginal people but also loss of people particularly Aboriginal children. Australians now recognise this period (1910-1970) as the Stolen Generation, when Europeans took Aboriginal children away from their families. This was due to new government policies that tried to get rid of Aborigines all together. Europeans taught the Aboriginal children to reject their indigenous heritage and to adopt white culture. Their names were changed and they were not allowed to speak their traditional language after this some were adopted by white families, others were put in institutions and were regularly subjected to abuse. So the date of Australia Day should be changed so that Aboriginals don't have to be reminded of the abuse their ancestors went through.
Australia Day should be changed from January 26th to another date

I believe that we shouldn't change Australia Day. Reconciliation means the restoration of friendly relationships. In Australia's case, the restoration of friendly relationships between indigenous and non-indigenous Australians. In the article "Day of Shame" by Andrew Bolt's it suggests that we non-indigenous have done a lot to make up for the wrongs we made towards the Aboriginals and made events to prove how sorry we such as: National Sorry Day (May 26), granted Aboriginal land rights, formal apology for the stolen generations, introduced Koori courts and spent billions to lift Aborigines out of poverty. Andrew makes a clear statement saying "No to the race-baiters. No to laws dividing us by race. No to those who want to shut down debate on all this and let's say yes to judging each other not by the colour of our skin or the race of our ancestors, but by the content of our character. As individuals." This statement clearly states that we should not debate on changing Australia day and to stop labelling people as racists just because of this one National day but say yes to judging other by who we are not our background, race or religion.

January 26th, Australia Day. It's different for everyone but traditionally it is a day of great celebration for Australians to reflect on what happened 228 years ago. When Captain Arthur Phillip lead the First Fleet as well as 759 convicts to the Great land of Australia. The First Fleet arrived at Sidney Cove on January 26th 1788 and changed Australia's history forever. Now Australia day, previously called Anniversary Day or Federation Day is a day which does not fully represent all Australians. I believe January 26th is not the right date for Australia as it does not respect Aboriginal culture or recognise the multicultural country we live in. My First point is that Australia day does not recognise the original custodians of our land. Before the Europeans came to Australia, Aboriginals were living off the land we now call home. After the Europeans arrived many Aboriginals were killed and taken away from their families, and soon most Aboriginals lost their sacred culture and connection to the land. Typically the history of Australia day has been a cause of unrest amongst parts of the population as they have commiserated with the Aborigines with regard to the plight and misery the day brings to their culture. Australia day each year marks a day when a population of people lost their homes, families and culture. The date of Australia day needs to be changed to include the inhabitants here before the Europeans and should include Aboriginal culture.
Australia Day should be changed from January 26th to another date

My opponent before said that Australia Day does not represent the "multicultural country we live in today" but in fact we do as my father who migrated from Bosnia and Herzegovina is happy enough to celebrate the day with family and friends. Also the source that was cited was not sufficient as it only talks about people migrating to Australia and that's it. Australia Day is not just celebrated with the Non-indigenous it is celebrated with everyone within the country despite race, gender, age, and religion. We acknowledge that the Wurundjeri people are the traditional owners of the land and as I said early on we hold "National Sorry Day" each year where the Australian Prime Minister, formally apologies to the Aborigines for taking away their land, the hurt and grief of how they were treated and stealing their innocent children just to benefit our race. Australia does not see Aborigines as "flora and fauna" anymore, even thinking that that was what they were classified as is stupid enough.
Australia Day should be changed from January 26th to another date

My opponent's points were not correct as the day all the states in Australia united was in fact called Federation Day and was actually on January 1st 1901. My opponent also mentioned how Australia Day is a very historical day, which it is but today's generation sees it as a day that does not fully represent all citizens in Australia. To reaffirm my previous arguments, Australia day does not represent the multicultural country we live in. Every year many migrants and refugees enter our country and become Australian citizens. It"s 2016 and Australia day still doesn"t recognise the many other cultures that live in Australia, as we are a very multicultural country. According to (http://www.skwirk.com......) 25% of Australians were born overseas and since 1945 six million people have migrated to Australia.Currently Australia Day really only represent the day Europeans arrived on Australian soil. Moving into the future I believe we need to recognise all cultures as well as the original owners of the land. Currently Australia day being on January 26th doesn"t work for our population and there are numerous other dates it could be held on. Such as Federation day (January 1st 1901 when Australia became one country), when Indigenous Australians were allowed to vote (27th Of May 1967) and when the government apologised to the Aboriginals for the Stolen generation (February 13th 2008). These alternative dates would be better choices for the date of Australia day and are days of great celebration without being about only one culture. In Conclusion, January 26th should not be the date for Australia day. It does not fully represent the original inhabitants of Australia"s land as well the multicultural country Australia has developed into.
I will not contradict myself.

It seems my opponent has conceded my points and is trying to win a different way. Semantics is defined as The meaning or the interpretation of a word, sentence, or other language form. . http://www.thefreedictionary.com... While a loaded question is defined as (of a question or statement) containing a hidden trap or implication. . http://www.thefreedictionary.com... My opponent claims I violated no semantics and Multiple negation is not allowed. But I never used double negatives in my questions so I have not violated that rule. To start off I would like to say that the two loaded questions that I used neither had an effect on if my opponent contradicted himself. The questions while being logical fallacies are not semantics. In no way am I playing with the meaning of the words or sentences. I am offering a question with no right answers but still that is not playing with the meaning of words. I have clearly in round 3 pointed out that my opponent made contradictions. He also in round four is trying to play the technicalities. I have not violated any of the rules he sent forth and have shown that my opponent contradicted himself.
I will not contradict myself.

"Will your answer to this question be no? " "If the answer to this question is no, is no the answer to this question? " I would like to point out, regardless of whether or not I contradicted myself. .. .. . It is observable in the quoted questions that Con violated the rules. By playing semantics, which is clear violation of the rules. .. .. . Rounds 1 & 2- Con asks Pro ten yes or no questions. Round 3- Con will state Pro's contradictions (if any). Round 4- Pro will defend alleged contradictions (if any) or admit defeat and Con will attempt to refute Pro's round four defenses. Pro reserves the right to define words according to the online version of the Merriam-Webster dictionary unless Con defines the word in his question. No semantics No trolling No profanity No vulgarity Multiple negation is not allowed The question: "Yes or No? " is not allowed as any of the R1 or R2 questions. He violated Term 1 and Term 5. .. .. .. . Reason: My opponent has not presented a logical question. He has presented a "loaded question". Aside from being a logical fallacy, such questions may be used as a rhetorical tool: the question attempts to limit direct replies to be those that serve the questioner's agenda. He represented a loaded question, which is a clear violation of the rules. .. .. .. . .. .. .. ..

Lets look at some of his contractions. Serious arguments. My opponent answered question 2 yes, question 10 no, and question 11 yes. According to his number 2 answer that means all of his answers are correct otherwise he is contradicting himself. But by saying no to question 10 he is saying no mathematical symbol between 5 and 9 will get a number greater than 5 and less than 9. That symbol is a decimal point. 5.9 is less than nine but greater than 5. And since he concedes that a decimal point is a mathematical symbol in question 11 he is clearly contradicting himself. He answered a question incorrectly so he is contradicting his answer to question 2. Also If either the New York Yankees or Washington National win their division series he is contradicting his answer of question number 2. So when you are voting if either of those teams won my opponent lost this debate. Ok now on to my not serious argument mostly for my own pleasure as I am bored. In questions 14 and 13 my opponent says he is not gay but has eaten a sausage. But the rules of the Internet (http://rulesoftheinternet.com...) clearly state in rule 3334 "Sausages are only eaten by gay men. No Exceptions." This clearly shows my opponent is contradicting himself. He is either a homosexual or has not eaten a sausage. No Exceptions. Also in question in 17 he says the house that I live in doesn't have 4 bedrooms when it in fact does have 4. Another contradiction is my opponent in question 18 says he is not a criminal and in 8 says he has not lied on DDO. As my opponent's DDO profile says he is 14 it is obvious he is contradicting himself as all 14 years males who have internet access have seen porn. As watching porn at 14 is a crime, my opponent is either a liar (contradicting question 8 and 2) or a criminal (contradicting question 18) The last contradiction I will point out is in question 12 he answers no to Have you made a contradiction in this debate? So if my opponent has made the contradictions I have proved then he has contradicted himself yet again by answering this question no. I believe I have proved that my opponent has contradicted himself in this debate meaning con wins.
I will not contradict myself.

11. Is a decimal point a mathematical symbol? Yes. 12. Have you made a contradiction in this debate? No. 13. Are you homosexual? No. 14. Have you ever eaten a sausage? Yes. 15. Will the St. Louis Cardinals lose the series to the Washington Nationals in the NLDS? No. 16. Will The New York Yankees win their series against the Baltimore Oriels in the ALDS? No. 17. Does the house that I live in have 4 bedrooms? No. 18. Are you a Criminal? No. 19. Are you smarter than a fifth grader? Yes. 20. If you divide 30 by half and add ten do you get 25? No. 30 divided by half is 60.
I will not contradict myself.

Ok. Sorry I guess I didn't see in the rules where it says no loaded questions..... On to the questions. 11. Is a decimal point a mathematical symbol? 12. Have you made a contradiction in this debate? 13. Are you homosexual? 14. Have you ever eaten a sausage? 15. Will the St. Louis Cardinals lose the series to the Washington Nationals in the NLDS? 16. Will The New York Yankees win their series against the Baltimore Oriels in the ALDS? 17. Does the house that I live in have 4 bedrooms? 18. Are you a Criminal? 19. Are you smarter than a fifth grader? 20. If you divide 30 by half and add ten do you get 25? Hope you enjoy.
I will not contradict myself.

Thank you for accepting my challenge, and I would like to clarify that yes, I will be answering either "yes" or "no" to each question......... Unless I find your question to be a fallacy, I will then counter it............. And I would also like to clarify something else: The definition of contradiction; contradiction- a proposition, statement, or phrase that asserts or implies both the truth and falsity of something. And I would also like to clear up what my resolution means......... For instance, if you ask me "Are you homosexual?" and I answer "No" then you ask me "Are you homosexual?" And I answer yes......... Then my answers have contradicted themselves.......... 1. Does .9 repeating equal one? No. 2. Are the answers to my questions correct? Yes. 3. Will your answer to this question be no? My opponent has not presented a logical question. He has presented a "loaded question". Aside from being a logical fallacy, such questions may be used as a rhetorical tool: the question attempts to limit direct replies to be those that serve the questioner's agenda. 4.
