I think the Jaguar is a far better argument for power =/= winner, the Neo-Geo is just such an odd example.


If the Neo-Geo was "odd", the Jaguar was the Fairy King. Even if it was significantly more powerful (was it really?) I understand that it had badly flawed hardware and that its controller was an abomination. Not to mention that Atari had a worse image at the time than Sega had circa Dreamcast. And the Jaguar had no good launch titles.

The jaguar was more powerful but had plenty of hardware issues and was wicked complex, with a shitty controller.

But it was designed and marketed as a home console, and it actualy sold surprisingly well at launch. Besides, even though the Atari name was battered, it was still reckognizable. SNK was only know by the "hardcore" and the Neo-Geo had nowhere near the availability of the Jag - not to mention its games cost 200-300 a piece.
