dilan147 2 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 (edited) Only including a 3 button controller with the Genesis throughout the 5th gen. Assuming people wanted "Vectorman" when it was an unproven game. Nintendo had more respect for the consumer,2 six button controllers and Mario World were bundled with the console while gamers who went with Sega had a caveat right out of the box, ask your parents for a Decent controller after they just got an entire console. There's no reason why a gaming system sku shoul've been this shitty in the final days of 1995!! Edited March 25, 2023 by dilan147 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cooke 2,026 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Genesis was awesome and so was vectorman. Eat poo Dilan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ike★ 2,906 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Shadow-dropping an entire console for $399 in 1995 was worse. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kaz 2,439 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 sega megadrive owned, it had some amazing games and we had way more games for it than SNES, but the SNES is far superior in every way. I never found a true rivalry growing up, there just weren't any Sega-only fans, everyone just agreed the SNES was better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 3,892 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 I actually appreciated all the weird shit Sega was doing at the time. I remember thinking the dreamcast's VMUs were cool as fuck and would change the way we played games 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sugarhigh 519 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Genesis was the only good era for Sega. Yeah Dreamcast is a cool cult system, and Game Gear beat Nintendo to color by like 5 years, but neither was widely popular. I was a total Nintendo kid at the time, but Genesis was a solid system.

Goukosan 2,249 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Launching with a 3 button controller was a total blunder by Sega. I wouldn't call it arrogant.. It was a blunder. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
