Is there anything more sickening than Atari Jaguar apologists?

You mean the inferior Jaguar port of the PC game?

Jaguar games are mostly shit but they have a distinct "Atari" quality to them that particularly appeals to some people.

That having been said, I strongly prefer the 3DO. You have to dig a little harder to find good exclusives on it but it's only because they're somewhat lost among all the good 3DO games that were multi-platform.

To me, that's much better than how the good Jaguar games really rise to the top of the crap but I think hipsters might prefer to know a whole bunch of deservedly obscure, terrible games.

Fact: The Atari Jaguar has Xbox360 levels of performance if it is properly programmed.

Follow-up questions, were there actually any Jaguar games programmed that efficiently?

>>3396431
It would be possible to get more out of the Jaguar than was actually accomplished during the system's life, but in saying that even at its peak it couldn't compete with 5th gen consoles.

Hell, Jaguar's dedicated blitting chip is less than four times slower than the N64's general purpose GPU at blitting operations.

PS1 can even do proper textured rectangles faster than the Jaguar's blitter peak performance.

Yeah, real shame that they didn't realize the most important thing about your console is the software it has. All that hardware and not one even remotely decent title throughout the entire lifecycle of the system.

Now if we could get modern console makers to realize this, we'd be doing good.

>It had very little of actual quality on it.

But what it had in that small selection was amazing. Alien vs. Predator on the Jaguar is still my favorite Alien/Predator related game.

The Jaguar is comparable to the 32X in performance and game library.

Jaguar has slightly more power as it's not piggybacking a 4th gen system.

32X has slightly better games because Sega's a better developer than Atari.

And Sega Saturn is comparable with modern video accelerators when properly programmed
I remember John Carmack loved Jaguar, but I still don't get why.

This is my favorite meme

Jaguar had a great port of wolfenstein. Rayman was great too.

At least it had Rayman, Tempest 2000, Power Drive Rally, Super Burnout, a decent version of Doom, a decent version of Raiden, and Pinball Fantasies. That's more good games than what the Virtual Boy had (although 3DO and 32X still beat it for library quality).

It doesnt have a following at all dude

It had a cool af box though.

>>3398208
You'd be surprised.

>>3398208
It has a small but dedicated homebrew scene, as well as some legitimate fans. I don't want to say they're hipsters, but some of the love must be from people who like more obscure stuff.

>>3398347
They're called hipsters. They like unpopular things (even if they're unpopular because they're shitty) solely because they're unpopular. They want people to ask them things like "YOU like the JAGUAR?!". They also, though not always (1% of the time) do not like things solely because they are popular. They want people to react in shocked ways, planning out their conversations, "you don't like the NES? HOW?"

>>3396601
32X had half the library but twice as many good games. Poor Jaguar.

>>3398419
The hipster boogeyman strikes again

Any other good Jaguar games?
