What a wonderfully ridiculous game.

I vote Jaguar because it has some truly great games. Tempest 2000, Defender 2000, Missile Command 3D, Doom (best console version ever), Iron Soldier, Cannon Fodder, Brutal Sports Football (sorry, I love it ), Alien Vs Predator, Rayman are all great in my book.

Preach on, brother

Virtual Boy for me. It's the only machine of those listed that I would dare get close to.

Gotta love it.

if you beat the game all the way through (including levels 16 & 17) in one sitting, you get the real ending. it's nothing special, though. the game just lets you blast each bad guy that appears in the game.

It was more like 8.5 million to 9 million units sold. It sold nearly 4 million units in the US alone. The US Dreamcast launch, was the most succesful of any console, until the PS2 came along. I have a feeling that was another deflating moment for Sega, on the hopes of the DC being a contender.

Trip Hawkins had a vision. And some good games. It's just the price was too high. If only the 3DO were cheaper...

Yeah! The price was rediculous. The 3DO was what I envisioned Sega CD was going to be like. The FMV games were'nt grainy and lacking colors and some of the games were pretty good, but by the time the price hit $300, Sega and Sony's better hardware arrived.

I've enjoyed everyone of those games, but never go to play Brutal Sports Football or Missile Command 3D. I'd like to add great games like Powerdrive Rally, Wolfenstein, Theme Park and Syndicate, to that list.

I voted for 3DO, it had some decent games even if they were nothing to write home about

The Neo Geo could almost really be in that list to since it really never took off due to the extremely high price... but that would make this a easy pick poll

It's the Lynx.

There were some decent arcade titles for it (Xybots, Stun Runner, Toki, Rygar, etc.). Road Blasters even has the voice in it... something the Genesis version didn't do. The voice is clear as a bell. The PlayStation Road Blasters is a bit buggy... at one time, the Marble Madness music kicked in (go figure that).

What a shame it is that the Lynx didn't get Japanese developers working on it. That would've ensured a wider selection of games and more arcade titles.

Virtual Boy, for me. Wario and Tennis alone are worth it.
