Which is better? Atari Jaguar or Panasonic 3DO?

What's next: complaining that the Amstrad GX4K, SuperGrafx and PC-FX don't get mentioned much?

The Amiga CD32 was a direct competitor released just before the 3DO and Atari Jaguar were. Those other consoles you mentioned simply were not.

In fact, were there even ten CD32-exclusive games released? (And just so we're clear: by exclusive I mean they didn't exist in some fashion already on the CDTV/A500/A1200.)

The console had a very short lifecycle as mentioned earlier within this thread, the parent company was unable to meet demand (and thus the console was too risky for big investments from developers). The best CD32 games are enhanced versions of A1200 originals, sadly the A1200 did not come with a CDROM drive by default, so the bulk of these games were primarily designed for using diskettes.

For example Naughty Ones is almost the same on Amiga 500 and Amiga 1200, the A1200 version only has extra colors. The CD32 version is almost exactly the same as the A1200 version which uses just one 880KB diskette, so 99.9% of the available disc space was left unused. A fun little game, but does not show of what the CD32 is capable of.
