i was just saying that there are loads of psx games with#"the nintendo feel", only crapper.
like crash bandicoot,
like spyro
like medievil
like croc
etc
and the "good games" you listed were all developed by other companies, not sony, unlike the nintendo games.

Yes, but that has nothing to do with the actual console. And it shows that its so good that it attracts better outside developers.

it's not just about "attracting" outside developers.
it's also about wheather or not the console company is willing to give license.
eventually sega always draw the shorter straw because of their pointlessly restricted licensing. generation after generation.

Sega US helped hold the DC down while EA raped it

their refusal to develop for the platform because the PS 2 would be "more better" didn't help the console's chances in the US much

Sega actually did everything they could to help DC dev's - way above and beyond anything Sony did for the PS 2 :)

SNES is the best console bar none. It had all your classics return as these monster creations of 16bit gold, and had all kinds of third party support, and people still new what making games was all about.

SNES featured some of the greatest of all time

Mario World
Super Metroid
Contra 3
Castlevania 4
F Zero
Mario Kart
Pilotwings
Sim City
FF 2 and 3
Secret of Mana
Zelda
Street Fighter 2: Turbo (best SF evar!)
Killer Instinct
Mega Man X
Donkey Kong Country (although franchise went too far)
etc. etc. etc.

There are just too many good games on SNES, when in comparison the N64 had a handful of decent games, and even some of the games that sold really well weren't all that great.

I will say that the next best system is classic NES, followed by Dreamcast, the fun machine :)

Consoles have never been able to recreate the feeling I got from playing my SNES though, and the consoles that I see coming out right now have no chance of bringin that experience to me.

Viva la Contra!

SNES. I haven't had fun with a console since...

Super Mario RPG. That game STILL rocks, and then graphics are great for so primitive (but classic) a system.

Find a game that's more fun than Metal Warriors for SNES.

Split screen mayhem at it's best.

One of the only games where I sat and played someone 200+ rounds in until we both got exhausted and nearly passed out.
F'ing awesome...

I will say that Winback owns me on N64 though. That is a real time killer when you're with your buds.

Who cares?

I did like Shinobi though, and Streets of Rage, both of which I played on a friend's err... MegaDrive? Yeah, that was the name. :D

I never had a console of my own. I had a computer, yaknow. No need of a console. Oh, well. No money. And my parents highly disapproved of consoles 'cos they were just "stupid playing machines"

super contra for snes? yea i liked that one the best too. i would also like to see a 3d remake of ninja gaiden. i can remember awhile back that tecmo(i think they made it) had a poll on their site asking if they did make a new one which system would you like to see it on, gamecube was first gameboy advance was second and ps2 was third,etc........
