Return of Jafar is so ass. King of Thieves is great, though.

There's not much of a Prince Ali section in SNES either. While you get the Whole New World fly through, you don't see anything else, and they instead opt to do some original level in a pyramid.
By 'better adaptation' on the Genesis, I'm including a lot of other facets aside from the story, like character designs including all of the unique palace guards, and the peddler. The inclusion of other tracks outside of Friend Like Me and Whole New World. Just the overall look of things like recreating the massive stalagmite the lamp sits on, instead of just plopping it in the middle of a path. The ending did suck hard compared to the SNES version, though.
