Regional and less remembered system "wars": what are your memories?
I was watching a comparison between different games ported to both the NES Dendy and the ZX Spectrum "Spek" from a post-Soviet perspective (the video by sinc LAIR with auto-generated subs). Properly speaking, there was no "war" between the Russian famiclones and the 8-bit computer. In the very early '90s, the Spectrum computers dominated, then the Dendy was king, then the "Sega" (Mega Drive) was beloved. At some point, the three coexisted (along many other platforms), and people bought one or the others based on income and other reasons.
But that's besides the point of this post. I just wanted to know, which are the "wars" or competitions you remember or know about but that somehow are rarely talked about?
