Don't make me post the scanners gif again.
Sega Genesis/CD/32X model 2 combo.
The Sega Genesis, of course. When I think of so many great consoles, the Genesis has the largest number of great games, and has many games of every genre. While the NES has many great games, the number of crappy ones are very high as well. The Genesis to me, is an equilibrium, it has all the "Right Stuff", and a great variety of it. What more could you possibly ask for?:)
I'd probably end up voting for the SNES or PSX... I can't choose!
Why the PCE CD is not there together with PCE?
MD + MCD FTW!
Megadrive, not even close for me
Yeah, now that I see the poll the Genesis CD 32X is the obvious choice for me. If my house was on fire and I had time to save any electronics my Genesis 1 CD 32X and original Revenge of Shinobi would make it in the box.
i find it difficult to think of GEN/SCD/32X as 1 system.
it can also do SMS just as easily as it can do 32X.....
In fact, it's much easier to do the SMS. Any flashcart will do the trick since a basic SMS is inside the Genesis shell. The PCB is something just to take care of the different cartridge format.Quote:

It's not very different from on-cart enhacement chips. Sega just used an expansion slot for the Sega CD and the cartridge slot for the 32X.
IMO the 32X is closer than Sega CD to be a standalone console but both integrate with the Genesis hardware and use it for all games in some extent.
The Sega CD and 32X are part of the Genesis library because they use the Genesis for their graphics and sound, each system becomes one system in their games. If either add-on was designed to be totally all inclusive it would be different.
The Master System is actually included in the Genesis, but the Genesis can only use the PSG, so I don't see how the Master System is part of the Genesis' library.
How the OP would have read had I started the thread;)Quote:

There was no winning trying to fit all the systems I wanted to into just ten poll choices. I included SCD and 32X with MD/Genesis because SCD and 32x cannot stand alone as systems without the addition of a Genesis console. In hindsight, I should have added the Turbo CD to TG-16/PCE, but I cannot redo it now.
This was a tough choice, NES, and PS have the best veriety+Quuality ratial out of every system, the DC has two of the best 3 fighters ever made+some oddball game not found elseware, then the Gen/CD has some damn good unique games, where there just aren't games on other system that can really compare, because they're so different. Then there's the SNES which has ton of RPGs(one of my main genres), among some amazing oddball games that no other system has+ great games for every genre, just not a ton of games for every genre.
In the end, I had to go with the PS(it has ports of a bunch of the SNES RPGs, + first US releases of games that weren't brought over when the SNES came out), it has a big veriety+high quality games for "almost" every genre(tactic, Tactic/RPG, Diablo-Diablo clones, racers, puzzle, arcade compilations, platformers, exc).
Lets face it, if you can't find a ton of games you love on the playstation, you don't like gaming in general(unless if the "only" genre you like, is fighting, in which case the DC, because yea the Playstation is rather lacking there, well as faq as quality goes, anyway).
A PC! :p
