How about the Zune launch?
Or the Kin phones.
Or what was that Microsoft knee-jerk tablet that they announced when they heard about the iPad?
Both Microsoft disasters.

The Phantom. I mean, it was so advanced it didn't even have a CD-ROM. Not to mention they covered the board in plastic or glue just so no one could mess around in it.

OUYA.

and to top it off, the woman that ran the company had it bought from her by probably another dumb woman.

I use Google Allo with my bros daily, that's not to say they failed launch though.

Master Chief Collection, but something tells me that's not the kind of product launch you mean.

Also, I wanna fuck that clown.

Pretty much. Between the DP Rape that was the Genesis add on scene and the Saturn's not so easy programming (and the fact that it used quads over tris effectively murdering 3d multiplats) , devs were like "What the fuck is you doing" and went on to Sony.

This being said, Saturn is by far the most autistic gaming hardware since the Neo Geo.

jfc so much this. i bought in to the meme. shit hardware, shit company, literally just looked like an android launcher until a week after official launch, Literally didn't have system support for TV Safe Zone, like wtf that's console dev 101

>>59600219
Zune was okay, but wtf was the purpose for the kin? like homestly curious that shit existed for all of 4 months

>>59593145
literally best launch - but history before it hurt it
>>
Either OUYA or the Kinect

Or as I like to call it "wtf is this shit? Just bring us more Borderlands games."

And coincidentally, I'm nominating that shit Borderlands Pre Sequel. Moon 'Strayan humour killed that in every other market.

It was good hardware though, kinda reminds me of the PS3 cell architecture. If devs would have took their time and developed games nicely it would have been better then the other consoles of the time.

>>59594661
This. I work a soul destroying evening job in an electronics department. I still get at least a few people a week coming in looking for Wii controllers or games. They're invariably shocked when I tell them it's been out of production for so long that the system that followed it has now gone out of production.

Is there any logical reason why you would fucking say that post is underrated? Has anybody expressed any kind of dissatisfaction or criticism at all against it? Are you delusional? Are you reading replies that are nonexistant? Maybe you come from communities with voting systems, but there is literally no way that you could know what other people think of that post you just replied to here. Maybe it's psychological. Maybe it's your own post you're replying to, like a 12 year old fucktard liking his own facebook posts thinking his swelling autism is going unnoticed. Maybe your self esteem depends on you tricking yourself into thinking someone out there thinks your post is worth something. Or maybe you are just a retard, the worst kind of retard, the one who thinks he's smart, the one who thinks he's the only one to have gotten the joke, to have understood the post. Well, guess what, faggot, that post is by no definition underrated so why don't you do the world a favour and go check out what the bottom of your toilet smells like?

Screw you! The N-Gage was awesome af!
Games were easy to download, so you only needed one card and you could install any Symbian game on it.
I never had any issues side talking or using the including headphones to call either
