The Spiritual Successor of the 16-Bit Era

The Super Nintendo Entertainment System and the Sega Genesis have truly dominated the video game industry during the early and mid 90s. The SNES is the best-selling video game console of its time, while Sega's most successful console during its time as a hardware manufacturer surprised the gaming industry when it released Sonic the Hedgehog in 1991. As the success of these two great consoles earned my respect, I was able to find a very suitable spiritual successor that would reminisce the legacy and success of the 16-bit era of video games. And that would be the Game Boy Advance.
