| − | | + | #REDIRECT [[sega:Blast Processing]] |
| − | '''Blast Processing''' was a marketing term coined by [[Sega]] to advertise the fact that the main processor of the [[Sega Genesis]] was over two times faster than the one on the [[Super NES]]. However, this is a scam. The [[Super NES]] CPU ran slower in clock cycles per second, but put out more instructions per clock cycle, also known as [[MIPS]]. This is also known as the Megahertz Myth. [[Sonic the Hedgehog]], the first game on a long series, was the posterboy for this campaign, being faster than any other platform game at the time.
