It quickly became the best-selling console of the 16-bit era after launching relatively late and facing intense competition from the SEGA Genesis as well as NEC’s TurboGrafx 16. Nintendo managed to sell 49.1 million units worldwide by the time it was discontinued in 2003. For those wondering, the SNES, also known as the Super Famicom, was released a year earlier in some parts of Asia and Europe.
