Mind you we know enough to understand that the ports aren't as good as the real deal, but to the average joe they are the same.

I am way, way better on Genesis MK1 and prefer it to the arcade game. And yes, it’s because it’s what I had at home.
And I was playing MAME in the 90s…. 25 years ago, Howard.

Battletoads & double dragon. (Nes, snes, gen) snes being the best version.
Beavis and butthead (snes version)
Elemental master (genesis)
Might as well have clay fighter 621/3 or sculpters cut on the 64 even though I liked the snes ones better

That's sort of how I feel about MKII on the SNES, except I owned the MKII arcade machine for like a decade or so.
I don't agree that the arcade version is always the best version. Sometimes the console port has improvements over the arcade version. Tekken got extra modes and actual endings, Soul Calibur / Edge got extra characters and modes, SF Alpha games got extra modes and characters as well. Cant play as Link in the arcade version of Soul Calibur ;) If you wanna go more retro I think the coleco version of mouse trap plays better than the arcade version and I liked Rygar on the NES better than the arcade. Im sure most of us would rather player turtles in time on SNES over the arcade version.
I have a darksoft MultiCPS2 and still play Alpha 2 and 3 on my Saturn sometimes. Nothing wrong with enjoying both.
