I have to agree with ICE. Would you place the Jaguar (a "64 bit" machine) in the same gen as the snes/megadrive, or the N64?

I don't think Jaguar belongs to the same generation as the SNES and Genesis even though it was meant to compete with them (kind of like how Dreamcast originally competed with N64 and PS1).
After all, it did come out shortly after the 3DO, which was really the beginning of the 32-bit generation.
Maybe to you, but many people call generations by the features supported, and Wii definitely doesn't qualify. By your measure, the new single-chip Genesis clones with multiple games in one package consoles are current generation... and that's just silly! :DQuote:

Much the way the DS and PSP are from the same generation as the PS2 but should never be compared to it.Quote:

This whole Generation nonsense is crazy marketing trying to capitalize the idea of future tech imo.
It is a pretty good way to categorize consoles by their release but I just wished it stayed at that.
Anyways, about the whole PS3 being the next saturn, hmm
The difference I see is that Sony has been pushing to sell the console for its own sake. Blu-ray should of had been the extra and not the selling point for the casual consumer.Quote:
"Consumers don't buy a game system for its own sake," says William White, vice president of Sega of America marketing. "They buy it for the fun they anticipate that the game software will provide."
Something else that caught my eye was
Sounds alot like PS3:pQuote:
At a price between $350 and $400, the Sega Saturn will attract the sophisticated consumer who appreciates the knock-your- socks-off, can't-find-it-elsewhere home entertainment experience of Sega Saturn game titles.
Now that doesn't necessarily mean the PS3 is a failure it just has been marketed at a different audience because Sony just figured all the PS2 owners would jump on the bandwagon.

-Less power draining(it does matter)
What else you want?It meets all the requirements for quality and cheap next gen gaming.No reason to buy ps3 for some few exclusives and bluray movie.And I repeat for a million time,I am not a fanboy,I am an oldschool gamer unlike the most of you
seriously?Quote:
