Their next console was the saturn
Doom, and Quake where 8bit color pallet, but came out mid 90s
ah, saturn; maybe that is the one i was thinking of
boomer memory; only 16 bits at a time
😉
Nintendo's big mistake was sticking with cartridges even with the nintendo 64
It did work
And the nintendo 64 wasnt a failure by any means
That's why quake looked like shit 256 colors doesn't go well with dynamic lights
But it could've been more
Still, the nintendo 64 had plenty of nintendo charm to carry it
Then the Playstation 2 came along and basically became the best selling console of all time
Outselling both the genesis and SNES combined
reminder that the Gamecube was actually underrated for the generation it was a part of, hardware-wise.
Untill people got over the Xbox having a HD
Gameball
Oh GOD
Also, carts are superior to disks by a lot, disks were only superior in storage capacity for roughly two console generations, but carts, especially large carts like the NES/SNES/N64/GB/GBC/GBA had, were able to include additional hardware rather than just game data.
There's a reason why there's a problem with Ruby/Sapphire GBA carts irl these days, and it's because part of the expansion hardware that was in those carts had an expiration date (a non-replaceable battery that managed the clock).
@Timeward Man.. I got a Game Cube, a Game Sphere, and a Game Tetrahedron
@UrstMcRedHead what about the game icosahedron?
Modern carts tend to just be flash memory though because there's no real need to include expnasion hardware any more, as the systems they connect to have far more capabilities than they did back in the olden days.
... plus the GBDS line actually had a clock in the device, with a whole host OS
Probably not by too much, given there's two kids and the dad hasn't disappeared for smokes 5 years ago.
I mean, if he returned it afterwards can you really be mad given what he used it for?
the 5yo he saved was even white
Heh.
Citizenship is based of of origin of birth though....
