Ok, who here failed to DO THE MATH and didn't buy an Atari Jaguar?

In keeping with how fanboys vent, and reason, I will go under the Mt. Fuji logo and reason like an Atari fanboy!  Mt. Fuji symbol mode ON!

Ok, which of you didn't buy a Jaguar?  Didn't you DO THE MATH?  Didn't you know 64 bit (and yes, the Jaguar was a 64 bit system, just as the TurboGrafx-16/PC Engine is a 16bit system) was greater than 32 bit?  Come on, more bits mean more power!  As can be seen here:

PC-Engine was only 8-bit! The 16 in TurboGrafx-16 was just a marketing ploy!

The PC-Engine had a 16bit graphics chip in it. It was in the same class as Genesis and SNES.  Anyhow, the point here is number of bits doesn't matter anyhow.

Exactly, "bits" referred to the CPU, not GPU, and PC-Engine only had an 8-bit CPU. The 16 in TurboGrafx-16 was a marketing ploy, much like the Jaguar spouting about it's 64 bits that you mention in the OP.

PC-Engine was really 4.5th gen, it released two years after the Master System (Mark III), but three years before the Super Famicom and was somewhere in between powerwise.

Anyway, back to your question, I didn't get a Jaguar because I wanted a Saturn, but I ended up getting a Playstation instead. I didn't get a Lynx because it was too big, I had a Gamegear and PC-Engine GT instead.
