I wasn't claiming that the Amiga didn't have those plugs. I was pointing out that the other systems didnt. No matter what you think, the Amiga is not a video game console. It is a gaming PC (although a very good one). Like I pointed out the once popular Amiga CD32 dedicated games console can be connected to monitors as well. On some units out of the box through a SCART/RGB port (other models could be expanded to include such a port) or through the standard included S-Video port. IMO having a Snes with monitor support wouldn't have disqualified the console as being a games console. |
But TV support doesn't make the Amiga a games console. That is my point. The Amiga is a PC. Ergo, comparing any spect to it is unfair, as PCs need higher specs to do their functions past gaming.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
