I thought the Sega Saturn's analog was the first one in console gaming. You know, they launched Nights with it's own analog controller. Then again checking wikipedia it says Nights was up against Mario 64 in sales that year... I just kinda remember playing Nights first and I rented a N64 the week it came out.
Okay, since when does "mainstream" mean "most important console?"
If we are going with important innovation then wouldn't X-box Live and use of a hard drive be big steps? I understand other systems went online first but the original X-box was the first to start succeeding at it and the first to have a hard drive. We could bring up Live related aspects like downloadable content and voice chat on a console.
Either way I can't help but feel like this list and subsequent posts become only about what systems the posters like most personally. |
Dreamcast was online first. Also I believe it may have had a hard drive, Not sure but it had the first console MMO.

Couldn't you argue that the SNES had online first?

Genesis also had it. I cant see which had it first lol. But I guess.
JPL78, the xbox was a failure. First hard drive platform for playing games was. . . get this. . . the computer!!! But yeah Xbox and mircost ruined it all by charging foir xbox live.
