Retro consoles that you won't go back to

Anything by SEGA.

The older I get, the more I hate threads like this, and the if you could pick one game type.

On a side note I actually find the 2600 hasn't aged as much relative to other machines. It's still very colourful and moves like lightning, compared to the early 3d consoles with sluggish games.

Saturn - prices are riddonk!!

Road rash is on the PS1, as is starblade, return fire is OK I suppose but no system seller, and also on PS1, street fighter is poor, no six button action there as far as I know.

And PO’ed. And Icebreaker and it’s sequel. Games I sank FAR too much time into. And the EA Sports games were great too.

Yes you also have gems like Killing Time, StarControl II, Star Fighter Way of the Warrior (love the game and the music) . 3DO was a fab system, that was way ahead of its time. Still love it to this day.

Rattling of games that do nowt fir me, 3do stank as far as I'm concerned, glad I only got stung once, when it was mega cheap, no way I will go back to that, system.

[beecee]

Lol, ahead of its time, maybe it was. doomed from the start, from the way its licenceing was done, with no way to effectively get development money back, too expensive for the time.

Six button stick readily available for street fighter and a good Sam showdown as well. No issues with you not liking the system, but to say there isn't one good game on it is a bit crazy in my opinion pal.

Oh, and slam'n'jam 95 is probably my favourite basketball game.

Re read my post Colin, never said there wasn't one good game on it.( none that you could not get on other systems) as for exclusive games, I'm fussy and I could not find any I liked, so got rid.

My second least favorite system ever. ��

I do like road rash, but I liked it better on PS1.

[Colin]

Anything and everything 8bit and earlier.

Neo Geo - tried this and was majorly underwhelmed.
3DO - just no good games for this at all, well none you cant get better version on other systems.
Jaguar - as above.

really?

[beecee]

Next sentence mate....

[Colin]

Yup, I read it, and even with that added caveat I still don't agree with you.

[beecee]

I had it, didn't like it. Like I say the games I remotely liked were available elsewhere, and to keep a system for one or two games I just thought were OK, makes no sense to ME.

Doomed from the start and being expensive are quite different, to saying there are no good games out for it.

We all have our opinions.
