Favorite Platform that Failed?


By Genki - Posted on 06 August 2008

What would you say was your favorite? Would it be the 700 dollar behemoth that was the 3DO, the Dreamcast with its online capabilities or maybe something else?

I'd have to say the Virtual Boy. Despite the critiques it got, it was still a pretty kickass concept, and I would love to get my hands on one. Despite being named a 'commercial failure,' the consoles still sell for a lot on ebay: not for collecting value, but because these people (like me) actually want to PLAY them.

Does the MSX count as a failure? Cause that's probably it. Also, my favorite failed game is Earthbound.

Dreamcast. I'm sure plenty of people would say this, but come on, the console was so ahead of its time, what with online capabilities, advanced graphics and some kick ass games. and then along comes PS2 with its stupid built-in DVD player. Oh well, at least we can always remember it for what it was...

Dreamcast, seeing as how I'm buying a $1000 Dreamcast with extra RAM called the NAOMI 2. Wai~ Melty Blood Actress Again.
