the SNES you have got to be kidding me

I said from a business standpoint, not from the consumer's standpoint.  If you read what I said, you'd realize why: the SNES solidified what "next generation" meant, and set things in motion for Sony and Microsoft to enter the market and all but destroy them in the coming years.  As a catalyst for future failures, the SNES was a monumental mistake for that reason alone.  As a product, however, it was pretty successful and definitely did a good job of pleasing the consumers who went upmarket and bought one.  Which makes its catalyst nature all the more devestating, business-wise, of course: it was a Trojan horse, that suggested that the "next generation" strategy would keep working, even though it was setting things up for a market invasion by larger corporations.
