Awesome idea for a video. Thanks for sharing. By the way, what exactly is an "Atari 5600"?
Also, don't the early adopters normally get the brunt of the problems with a system. Did not the XB360 early models have severe overheating problems that got worked out later?
I wouldn't mind a PC Engine myslef, as for the Neo, I have an MVS 1-slot board / Supergun - overall costs came pretty high but its pretty fun, especially for two players. The prices the games are going for these days is daylight robbery though (and we are talking MVS and not the even more absurdly expensive AES). That said there's a few multi carts available for the MVS which kind of lighten the overall cost of gaming.Quote:

Several consoles had phenomenal launch titles. Someone getting a Colecovision, NES, or TG-16 had a plethora of strong titles from which to choose, and even systems like the SNES and Saturn had a couple strong titles with some odds and ends mixed in. Heck, the Dreamcast launched with 19 games, including gems like Power Stone, Soulcalibur, Ready 2 Rumble, and Sonic Adventure (for those who liked it, I didn't), and even the N64 had the excellent Super Mario 64, which stayed in top 10 lists for N64 games for years to come (just like Super Mario World). I think only the Genesis was really worth waiting for back then (discounting, of course, price drops), when Sonic was bundled with the model 1.Quote:

That said, you do have a strong point about price. Why buy now when it's cheaper in a year...or ten.

i didn't mange to sort a dreamcast launch shirt for my line, but to my credit, i did have my Ryo Hazuki sweater thing going. i will also buy a drink for the first local to recognize it...with the exception of people with me in said line who just enjoy talking about how we're never gonna get part 3 ( ; _ ; )
wow a ryo hazuki sweater. where did you get that?
Awesome you deserve it. Ha yup them comments.Quote:
