Favorite consoles of /vr/?

This "adjusted for inflation" autism completely misses the point.

>>3540921
How so?

>>3540921
I don't know if it misses a point, I don't know what kind of a point it was trying to make.

>>3540927
It's just an image of consoles.

Is it really just an image of consoles though?

Who are these anons that always support the WonderSwan and 3DO? Is there any good reason to like either?

My favorite console was the Wii, but only because it was backwards compatible with the the gamecube, and gave us the virtual console.Also ease of soft modding helps.

Stripping those things away, it's still probably the gamecube.

>Favorite consoles
In order of preference/time played;
NES
PS1
Genesis + SNES (equal)
Neo-Geo AES
Saturn
Dreamcast
Xbox
N64
Wii (for emulation purposes, not a fan of the library)

>>3542116
15/24 consoles in the image are retro, I think this would have a bit more leniency to it if you ask this Anon.

>>3542172
CDs were a mistake. We should never have adopted that format over carts.

snes followed by nes. grew up with the nes and then when i finally got the snes it felt like a nes on steroids. did not get that feeling from the n64, feel like the ps did the better part

Just home consoles? Okay. Here's my top 5.
5. Playstation X
4. Mega Drive
3. Dreamcast
2. Saturn
1. Master System

Hi, James.

Top 5:

PS3
Genesis
Wii U
SNES
Dreamcast

Honorary mentions:

Wii
SMS
NES
N64
Saturn
2600
CDi

The rest I either haven't had a chance to play or just have basically nothing I care about in the library (for instance, everything I care about in the entire xbox lineup is either better on PC or available on another console with a better controller).

>>3542186
Agreed 100%. The N64 has always seemed weird to me. PS1 seems like a true SNES successor (minus the Nintendo IP), a lot of similar games, similar form factor, similar controller.

N64 is kind of it's own thing, the complete shift of old Nintendo to new Nintendo. The birth of modern gaming.

Come on, son. Gotta step it up.

>>3542220
Why do you think the Master System is inferior to the Saturn, Dreamcast, and "Genesis" or whatever the fuck that is? What's wrong with liking the PSX?

I doubt it's bait. He's probably just not American, and the Playstation X thing seems like satire of those who say PSX when referring to the Playstation.

>>3542227
How is it bait? Everyone says PSX.

Do you think everyone who disagrees with you is Australian?

Hard to believe both the 2600 and Intellivision were so comparatively expensive when they were released.

I was born in 1980 and am just barely old enough to have gotten to play them prior to the NES coming out.

I can still just barely remember the after effects the game market crash. By that point everything was getting clearanced out and heavily reduced in price while stores were almost giving the stuff away.

>>3542364
It wasn't a game market crash, it was a home console market crash.

>>3540916
3DO

>>3542368
True, but I didn't get my first computer until 1994. For me PC gaming wasn't even a thing back then.

>>3542378
What about arcades?

>>3542379
I only really started going to arcades in the 90's around the time Street Fighter 2 was getting popular.

All hail Vectrex.

N64 and Dreamcast were literally bargain price retro consoles, holy shit.

>>3542169
There's plenty of quality indie games on Steam and such that are exactly that small.

>gaming became the stock market

good thing I never sold my consoles and can pirate on most of them.

>>3540925
Because it only adjusts the price based on the current value of money. It doesn't take into consideration things like cost of living increases, average wages, or poor economic environments. It's a superficial comparison. $300 in 1995 felt less expensive than $300 in 2012 because of those factors.

>>3542963

Hi Trump.

>>3540916
I hold NES, SNES, Genesis, N64, and Playstation all in the same high regard. Those were my childhood through teenage consoles and I have more fond memories of playing games with my friends on them than anything since.

Yeah, for the model 2. Model 1 was $400 and the fucking thing died.

>>3550059
yeah continuing to use cartridges would mean we have to stick with early 1990s technology in every other aspect as well while with optical media we can use all the current technologies. Makes total sense.

>>3550083
optical media is damn near obsolete now too

>>3550086
What's modern? I don't normally exist past 2002.

N64 is the gem of game night, so it's my current favorite.

Seems about right, though there are a few surprising conclusions. Wonder how this would go over if PS2, GameCube, Xbox, and Game Boy Advance were included.

From the ones I was able to play, my order would be:
Ps2
Ps1
N64
NGC
Xbox

Snes
Sega Genesis
NES
Ps3

In no particular order, would like to try:

Colecovision
Atari 2600

Shit Tier
Ps4

>>3540916
If the SNES has a bad game, i'll eat my hand.

>>3540916
Well, looks like SNES and GBC are the winners.
I still prefer the NES, though, personally.

>>3557271
I'm surprised the Neo Geo Pocket Color is as well liked as it is. I've never even seen one. What games does it have?

>>3557271
Game Boy Color is the most universally popular device on here? Damn.

>>3542184
It had already been an international standard, and would become the main method of consumer data transfer for ten years — and not because of game consoles that had incompatible formats for their CDs.

The main problem with first CD consoles was that they were misbalanced for that amount of data, didn't have a performance to process it, and were partially oriented at old types of games (for example, expecting "3D stuff" to be models near the center of the screen or inside a small window so that polygons don't suffer much from lack of perspective correction, while people became possesed by the promise of full 3D worlds). You have 2 MBs of memory to fit game code and level (or level segment) data, what's next? Making 300 levels to fill a CD? Or, being a smart guy who knows about compression, making 3000 levels for your game? No wonder people burned all that space on WHOPPING HOUR OF FULL MOTION VIDEO SEGMENTS and full screen graphics with some kind of arkanoid intermissions between them (sometimes quite literally). Moreover, more comprehensive content (say, uniformly styled portraits, eyecatches, animations and bumpers for the whole progression of the game) means more work and bigger team (and modern game development projects couldn't really be imagined), while getting C-grade Hollywood studio with a green screen to make some was definitely faster, cheaper, and more manageable (if we don't mention Wing Commander... which we shouldn't mention).

What we should mention is Killing Time (3DO version) that incorporated streaming media into game world quite nicely. I wonder why it hasn't been done more often (at least before Half-Life made everyone crazy about scripted interactions of 3D models and killed animated sprites for good).

>>3542963
You really don't know what you're talking about. Especially when you talk about how things were in 1995, before you were even born.

When will GameCube be retro, friends?

>>3563179
It already is.

>>3542963
You're talking fucking nonsense you retard. I remember when SMB3 was £60 long after the SNES came out and there were barely any NES games sold anymore and that was much more than £60 now because people got paid much less, it's literally the equivalent of a years old game costing more than £100 new.
