Ps1 vs Saturn vs N64 vs 3DO vs Jaguar vs Dreamcast

N64.Not MANY titles.But to many stellar addictive games.

The most fun i had was with my N64 and Goldeneye, F Zero and Mario Kart multiplayer, the hours we wasted on that machine just cannot be counted!!!!:D:D:D

Definitely the Playstation 1. Hell, the PS1 has now outlived every console to date(not counting the 360, PS3 and Wii) with the release of MGS: The Essentials.

More over, theres just much more better games on the PS1 than the N64.

This belongs in Systemwars.

Why did you mix more than 1 generation?

The Sega Saturn all the Way-IT HAD SAKURA WARS!

PS1>N64>DC>others.

the n64 was only better than the ps1 if you could stand the controller and liked all the kiddish games, and didnt care for the, for lack of a better word, more mature games.

Take it to system wars.Buffalo_Soulja

Take a discussion of "legacy" platforms to the system wars forum?

Who would participate in that?

Playstation all the way!

I think the top would probably be PS1, just because it simply had so much on it, but I think the N64 could also be an acceptable #1 because it led the way in a good few genres and was pure genius as a multiplayer machine, so My list would go

1# (arguably) PS1

2# N64

- big space in quality -

3# Saturn

4# 3DO

5# Neo Geo CD

6# CD32

- big space in quality -

7# Jaguar

8# CDI

Take Jaguar and N64 out of there and place them in their own list. The 64-bit list.

3DO vs Genesis+32X vs Sega CD+32X vs PlayStation vs Saturn

these were all the systems in marketed in the US claiming 32-bit power back then. Sega foolishly had their plate full during that era, they should have either never made the 32X or never launched the Saturn, running both kept their fanbase split across two different platforms that were incompatible with each other. So when they canceled the 32X they burned up half of their fanbase who then had to buy a new system to stay current, most bought a PlayStation in revenge.

1) N64

2)Dreamcast

3) PS1

4) Saturn

5) 3DO

and 6) Jaguar

PSone that was a real console

N64, definetly. It has my favorite mario, zelda, starfox, and donkey kong gameconkertheking1

True all the way. My fav zelda is on it, my second fav donkey kong is on it, fav mario game is on it, star fox, kirby,banjo,conkers it had every thing. ps: its the only one from that gen that i owned.

SLIisaownsystem

so are you saying the others aren't because i can make a case for n64 easily. infact i don't even have too but i will

im finding it very hard to choose between the n64 and ps1. and i dont think dreamcast should be on the list and should be compared to the likes of ps2 and gamecube .ect

PS1 wins easily with N64 a in second place and Sega Saturn takes the bronze.

Dreamcast was not part of that generation. And Saturn is my favorite console ever.savebattery

Really, it was. It might've been the successor to Saturn, but it was released early, and by the time the PS2 and especially Xbox and GC it was dead. It basically lasted from 99-01, which is definitely part of the N64/PS era.

Anyway, to me it's

1-N64

Big gap

2-Saturn/DC

3-PS1

Jaguar :P

For me it's the N64 because it was the last "fun" console (my opinion).

But Dreamcast is more of a 6th gen (PS2, GC, Xbox) console.

If we relativize, nothing :)

It was a self-proclaimed world's first "64-bit" console with nice graphics (certainly better than SNES and Mega Drive), cool-looking design and "rad" games :P

As for the topic my list would go like..

1. PS1
2. Dreamcast
3. Saturn
4. N64
5. Jaguar
6. 3DO

The Jaguarwas a decent console, it just lacked the 3rd part support, and themarketing.The 3DO was a failure from the start simply because it took the same problem the Sega CD had, and built off of it. The PS1 is #1 simply because it had gamesno other systemjust couldn't top. PS1 had Tekken, MGS, Final Fantasy, Spyro, Crash,Battle Arena Toshinden, and a ton of other games. Saturn I also believe was a better system than the N64, problem was.. graphics were a huge influence back then, and the Saturn didn't capitalize on that.It alsodidn't help that a lot of it's great games were only released in Japan. But I believe Shenmue actually showed how good the Saturn could look if it was utilized in the proper way, even though the game was never released for it.

ironically some of the later Saturn games were starting to outdo the PS1 games of the time in alot of ways, just before Sega killed the Saturn off

Really tough call between the PSone and Sega Saturn, but I'll take the PSone in a slight edge.

I absolutley HATED the damned N64, its easily my least favorite console of all time.

the N64 paddle is by leaps and bounds the worst gaming device ever created, the cartridge format was limitting and outdated, and man, I just couldn't find any games to play when I had the N64. Seriously, after Zelda:Ocarina, Zelda:Majora and Paper Mario, I can't think of another game from that system I actually enjoyed playing all that much. (maybe Ogre Battle and Resident Evil 2, but even then, I had the superior versions/entries on the PSone)

I absolutley HATED the damned N64

Why so emotional?

You sound like the N64 killed your pet or something :P

LOL, naw, it didn't kill my pet, but it certainly ended my love affair with Ninty.

When I was a kid, I was all about the NES and SNES, but the N64 was just such a huge letdown for me pesonally.

[QUOTE="snes_vs_ps1"][QUOTE="Darkman2007"] a bit overexcited arent you ? :P besides , alot of the things the PS1 did were being done by other consoles or arcades, both before and during the PS1 lifespan , its just the PS1 made them more popular.Darkman2007

[QUOTE="Darkman2007"][QUOTE="snes_vs_ps1"] Before 1995, when you said "Nintendo" you said "Gaming". Since 1995, Playstation is "Gaming"snes_vs_ps1

[QUOTE="snes_vs_ps1"][QUOTE="Darkman2007"] that just implies popularity and marketing , norhing to do with innovation it has an amazing game library no doubt, can you name me some things the PS1 did first? Darkman2007

[QUOTE="Darkman2007"][QUOTE="snes_vs_ps1"] No wait...1977-1984, Atari was Gaming. 1985-1995, Nintendo. 1995-2005, Playstation(Sony, whatever) Since 2005, the Xbox is the standard. The brand "Playstation" is easily the most popular in all gaming history, it popularised gaming to an unprecedented level & that says a lot.I mean, who the hell has evne heard about N64, DC, GC, Saturn etc?Few people on the other hand, everybody has heard about the Playstation speaking here about all groups of ages, even 60+ lol. The Playstation may not be the first console with 3D Gaming but it made it popular, its responsible for creating this standard....uhmm, it made for the first time CG animation, in FFVII :D It brought the Dual-Shock controller.The first console to sell 100 million units...i don't know man...let me give you another link, another Top (just kidding:)snes_vs_ps1

[QUOTE="snes_vs_ps1"][QUOTE="Darkman2007"] there was CG long before FF7 , on consoles like the 3DO, heck even some Mega CD games had and quite frankly most people have heard of those systems maybe you didn't know about them , but that doesn't apply to everybody. and again , youre talking about marketing, thats how a console gains popularity and just because a console is popular doesnt mean its necessarily the best. My bother for instance owns a Wii and a PS3, by your logic, the Wii is much better since it sold alot more, and more non gamers know it. stange how that Wii is gathering dust while hes busy playing the PS3. I mean , come on , debate me some inovations not what some marketing guy said I will give you it on the dual analog sticks , but it was Nintendo who had the Atari 5200 with hte first analog stick back in 1982. later on it was the N64 and Saturn , which both had analog controls before the PS1.Darkman2007

[QUOTE="Darkman2007"][QUOTE="snes_vs_ps1"] I don't know man, in this topic it's just PS1 & the rest of the world.That's what History decided, to make the PS1 the standard, this was the course of events even if the PS1 has no innovations like you said.snes_vs_ps1
