Yes, and the Genesis was the only time Sega was ever close to Nintendo (or anybody else for that matter). And the SNES still outsold it by 19 million units. That's more than the amount of Saturn's and Dreamcast's sold. That's more than Xbox's that have been sold. Really, the Genesis was never that close.
Anyways, these numbers pretty much kill the Sony/Xbox argument. Any other discussion on this point is well, pointless, if not plain stupid.
