This has to be a joke, right?

[mick_aka]

Apologies if this is a re-post...

What a collosal bunch of fucktards.

[playgen]

Thats one of the worst lists of all time!
What the hell are Dreamcast and Saturn doing on there too, the author must simply have crap taste in games and far too much blind admiration for Nintendo.
"Virtual Boy would be higher on this list except its made by Nintendo." says it all.

[17daysolderthannes]

wow, that dude managed to play every bad or mediocre game for every system and then proclaim it junk. Nevermind the fact that Sega had THE BEST controllers of any console ever made, the smoothest gameplay (on most of the systems), and a large library of excellent games. I've been collecting for SNES and Genesis and I think my Genesis library is bigger even though I already had about 20 or so games from my childhood for SNES before I started collecting (I never had a Genesis as a kid, though I did play my cousins all the time, and loved it I might add).

[16-bit]

What? No CDI? But seriously, Dreamcast, Saturn and Genesis? Was this guy on crack or something? There are way worse systems than those.

[mick_aka]

I also love the fact that the really long rant I posted in the comments earlier today appears to have been deleted.

[TmEE]

Some Regal-Sin type person in charge maybe ?

[Kogen]

Since the "add a comment" part is not even set to English, I assume that site is run by Autistic people?

Anyone who would put that there has poor taste in games or just actually never played it.

[Zebbe]

Yes, all Spanish people are Autistic. Makes perfect sense, especially after reading this.

[Mr Smith]

The words "hardcore", "Nintendo" and "fanboy" leap to mind, followed quickly by "idiotic" and "pratt".

He seems to have a grude against Sega consoles, besides, the Mega Drive is Sega's greatest console with a glut of awesome games. How anybody who isn't a lobotomy patient can claim it is worse than the 32X (which even Sega fanboys cannot defend) is insane.

[Rusty Venture]

I don't see the point of getting upset over a list some no-name website posted.

[Genesis Knight]

My guess is they're just trying to get attention by making people mad, but whatever. This list is so wrong on every conceivable level that it's really more pathetic than anything else. The author should turn his attention to tasks he's better suited for, such as sitting on his thumb. Obviously objective research and educated argument isn't his thing.

[GeckoYamori]

This has to be a troll article, I can't logically fathom it being anything else. So please, don't feed it!

Do bring acid or fire spells, however.

I'd say you have fairly good judgement in this article having been wrote by a troll.

[AD2101]

That actually pissed me off...

Which I'm assuming was the author's intent as there wasn't one good point in there, and the fact that he neglected every good game on the system, except for that 1 sentence about Sonic is just shameful. I'm pretty sure all but the most bitter of Nintendo fanboys ripped on this kid for his lack of knowledge and BS that he pushed around as fact.

One last blurb until I purge this clown from memory: Thunder Spirits better than TFIII? Nigga plz

[Damon Plus]

Yes, all Spanish people are Autistic. Makes perfect sense, especially after reading this.

I'm offended by that comment.

[TmEE]

don't take things too seriously...

[Joe Redifer]

The thing that pisses me off is that they consider the 32X a console unto itself. It is a add-on peripheral, nothing more.

[TmEE]

same for MCD, which makes me think why it isn't there in the list......

[Metal_Sonic]

TEH ARTIKLEZ R TURE!!!!
SEGA NOOBZ WIHT NOOBI SASTEMS R TEH SUXZORS LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.

[Kogen]

I'm offended by that comment.

I think he was joking, unless you are too.

My point was the article is in English yet the "comments" part was in Spanish.

[Melf]

Yeah, that article is obviously another "let's troll something to stir up controversy and increase our hits!" tactic. It can't possibly be serious. Hell, the mere fact that the person who wrote it doesn't even know how to use paragraphs invalidates it for me.

Move along, nothing to see here.

[17daysolderthannes]

worse than the 32X (which even Sega fanboys cannot defend)

Say what you want about the 32X, but I love the hell out of my small 32X collection. IMO, the 32X, like the Nokia N-gage QD (b/c regular N-Gage did kinda suck) was just mismarketed and brought into the wrong place at the wrong time without proper developer support.

[Dirt Ball Gamer]

Yeah, im used to seeing sega bashing websites where they really have no idea what the systems or games were all about. This one comes as no shocker. Whats annoying is the sega bashing comments on sites like kotaku left by nintendo fanboys and FPS fans, not that sega doesn't have many faults, but the comments are always very uninformed and vague. Just hating on sega based on sega's recent failures forgetting all the quality games that the older systems offered. The only vid related sites other than this one that I like what they have to say are the video game den and I forget the other one at the moment.

[Rusty Venture]

I'm pretty sure some of the comments made about Nintendo over here don't sit well with those infatuated with the big N.

Not that I care.

[snume]

Not all Spanish people are Autistic. But that site is already erased from my browser history. i wonder if we shouldn't remove the link from the first post so as to halt the traffic going to the POS website. He/She/They is probably getting ad revenue from the site and I don't feel like supporting idiocy.

[sonicwatcher6969]

Five worst consoles ever and 4 of them are sega??? The virtual boy was only in there because no matter how much that person OBVIOUSLY LOVES NINTENDO OR SONY can not deny how bollocks the virtual boy was. The 32X I would'nt have been suprised to see on there, but what about the useless N64DD?

The guy must love his master system, mega cd, game gear, nomad and pico though.

[jetlag]

waste of time

I don't think the 32X hardware was a flop, but the software didn't take full advantage of it. Mostly drumsamples and voice's were improved.While you could do so much more (star wars arcade).

Comparing the snes sound to the megadrive is always resulting in the same lame excuses.
Why don't they compare the mega cd sound to the snes.both PCM.

[esb09]

Typical Nintendo fan boys.
'
I have my issues with the SNES but I wouldn't dream of saying its one of the "worst" consoles.

They're the kind of people who think Donkey Kong Country is third or fourth greatest game of all time.

I "love" also how they used Pitfighter (freaking PITFIGHTER) as a good comparision game for the sound differences between the two systems. Yeah, I'm sure the programming geniuses that made that game really took advantage of the Yamaha chip. /sarcasm

[Wesker]

Yes, all Spanish people are Autistic. Makes perfect sense, especially after reading this.

Well, it seems this apparent autistic on here still has enough mental sanity to consider the list as an absolute anti-Sega fanboyish crap.

Quite funny of you telling so deductive and self-conclusive what Spanish people are supposed to be. Maybe I should call you the Swedish Mr Holmes?

PS: I highly doubt Spanish speaking people would write a blog fully and only in English. And there isn't either a real evidence of them being Spanish. Those guys could simply be English-speaking people having registered their blog in a Spanish blog system.

[esb09]

Has this just started a major international incident between Sweden and Spain? Should we call for the UN?

EDIT: Or maybe General Chaos?:p

[K.K.]

Maybe I should call you the Swedish Mr Holmes?
Bullshit! I'm the Swedish Mr Holmes!

[Zebbe]

Maybe I should call you the Swedish Mr Holmes?

No, you can call me the Swedish Android.

[Lesko900]

The Genny as number one? You've got to be kidding me. The fact that the Dreamcast is on the list as well makes me think it's either a gag or he has something out for Sega. I mean, the Dreamcast wasn't a gigantic success, but one of the worst of all time? And Genesis as number one? Blasphemy.

I knew this idiot couldn't be taken seriously as soon as I saw

'The Saturn launched many arcade titles like the Street Fighter Series which never can claim greatness for a video game system.'

Besides that, he makes horrible points. Sorry if this has been posted before, I didn't see anything about it.

[The Sports Guy]

Already mentioned in another forum.

[Wesker]

No, you can call me the Swedish Android.

A notable representation of autism, ironically.

[Zebbe]

I think you've missed the whole point.

[Lesko900]

Okay, someone please delete this then. Or close, whatever.

I knew I likely missed it somewhere.

[Wesker]

I think you've missed the whole point.

Nonsenses. I only trust to this whole point.

MERGED! Woo!

Now look what you did. You merged those irrelevant messages in the middle of the irrelevant discussion between the irrelevant autistic android and the irrelevant autistic of myself.

[Genesis Knight]

Geez, sorry to break up the love fest.

[Rusty Venture]

This thread is irrelevant goodness in a chocolate coated shell.

[dragonboy]

By the way he mentions some stupid thing in a football game as the best thing on the Genesis, and the way he only does comparisons on garbage games, this guy is defenately a retard.

[Black_Tiger]

I'm pretty sure some of the comments made about Nintendo over here don't sit well with those infatuated with the big N.

Not that I care.

I had a similar thought when I glanced over that the list. But it's comprised almost entirely of an extreme variant of fanboy commentary that only show up around here randomly.

Although that list shouldn't be taken seriously on its own, here's something that single-handedly discredits the rest of the site-

[Lesko900]

Damn right it shouldn't be taken seriously.

Cara should be #1.

But yeah he's a tool.

[Rusty Venture]

The *mom* from "Wonder Years"?

It's times like this I remember what my g/f said when watching the show:

"The mom on 'Wonder Years' sure has an ass on her" (talking about her huge ass).


What the fuck is this site actually about? Women of "Wonder Years" "Worst Systems" and a bunch of Wizards and shit...what do any of those have to do with each other?

[Melf]

I "love" also how they used Pitfighter (freaking PITFIGHTER) as a good comparision game for the sound differences between the two systems. Yeah, I'm sure the programming geniuses that made that game really took advantage of the Yamaha chip. /sarcasm
Actually, they did, but you can read all about that in our interview with one of them next month. :)

[Smii]

They're all ingredients. Stick them in a blender. Whizz 'til smooth.

Voila ~ essence of nerd.

[Black_Tiger]

What the fuck is this site actually about? Women of "Wonder Years" "Worst Systems" and a bunch of Wizards and shit...what do any of those have to do with each other?

Nerdity. They're card game enthusiasts who dabble in other nerd-core interests.

Whats sad is that they're aspiring to be hardcore "gaming" nerds as well, but fall flat on their faces.

[esb09]

Pit Fighter has good sound? Whaaa? I've only played it on emulation but it seems like a pretty awful game.

[Melf]

Ah, I didn't say it had good sound. I said they took advantage of the hardware. ;)

[Rusty Venture]

Ahh, yes....the nice way of saying it blows.

[matteus]

Ah, I didn't say it had good sound. I said they took advantage of the hardware. ;)

Took advantage of it.....is that in some sordid manor down a back alley?

Or they had so many spare cycles of CPU left that they decided to put a hidden infinite loop running in the game to increase the overall hardware performance.
