What was it that attached to the Atari, I think it was called the Gemini? I remember having some cartridge with a ton of games on it.

I was so young though, but I always remember Hero the most, as it was awesome.

10 year old me would kick current me in the nuts for saying this but it's objectively the SNES.

 

[Dinkin_Flicka]

For me, PS1 had the biggest graphical jump from the SNES/Genesis days. Me and my buddies would pull our money together and rent one and a few games from the local movie place and veg out for the weekend.

I just remember being absolutly floored by Kings Field, Battle Arena Toshinden, and X Games. I would always get slightly depressed when we had to take it all back and step back down to the 16 bit games.

There were big jumps in polygon count every gen afterwards, but moving from sprites to polygons was a game changer.

The eye burning headache shit never happened to me. I thought it was cool.

But the non existent practicality of it kinda killed it in the crib.


Too ahead of it's time.

The shooter and Wario game was sick, if they could have made more stuff like that...

 

[BjPenn2017]

SNES as the games hold up well even today and it just has such an amazing library and multiple genres to pick from.

N64 is one of those consoles I have good nostalgia for but I feel it was kind of a shite system looking back. Games ran like shit, wasteland when it came to rpgs, controllers were awful. Probably the most overrated game system to ever exist.

 

[Wrath of Foamy]

For me? Sega Dreamcast.

Shenmue 1&2, Headhunter, RE: Code Veronica, Soul Calibur, Dead or Alive 2, Powerstone 1&2, Metropolis Street Racer, Sega Rally 2, Virtua Tennis, Speed Devilz, Sega GT and Sonic Adventure 1&2. It also had the Visual Memory Unit.

It also defined a big leap in graphics for me as a kid. Going from Sega Saturn era graphics to Sega Dreamcast as a kid was a really big deal.

I last had that feeling with Bioshock with the Xbox 360.

As it should. They didn't make too many of those...things.

Even as kids, we knew it was such bullshit when we first tried it out. Big stupid face mask, that brought you into a world of red lines and headaches, LOL. They over promised so much with that hunk of shit when it's development news first started making the rounds. The balls it took to actually release it in that state...

Bigger failure than the 32X. That's no small feat.

I actually loved loved it. Red alert and Mario tennis on it were awesome. I get why people disliked it though.

My dad bought me one at full original price($180). Not long after they were selling at Blockbuster for $40 or something like that. My dad got mad and yelled at the poor kid working there.


Seriously though, that thing was a piece of shit.

 

[Kassitus]

Sega Saturn master race.

N64, NES and xbox were also great.

 

[Kassitus]

SNES was great as an RPG machine but kinda underdelivered otherwise.

I was a Sega kid. Genesis and Dreamcast are among my favorite consoles. Dreamcast felt way ahead of its time and had some really great games. Soul Calibur and Shenmue blew my mind. I still remember where I was when I played them for the first time, just left a huge impression. Skies of Arcadia is one of my favorite RPGs to this day and wish Sega would bring it back. Power Stone was a blast with buddies.

Sega Genesis was my first console and I think it aged the best of all old consoles. I played Earthion this year and that game was made on the native hardware and also released digitally on modern consoles. Streets of Rage games, Sonic, Phantasy Star, Earthworm Jim, Ristar, Dynamite Headdy, Alien Soldier, Gunstar Heroes, Toejam and Earl, and many others don't feel dated at all to me.

After Sega got out of the hardware business I've been all about PlayStation and have owned every Sony console since including the portable ones. So if Sega was my first love, Sony PlayStation is like my long time marriage lol
