Not to mention it had on of the shittiest controllers to ever


The NES controllers were IMO much more sucky. In a Snes and Mega Drive era of gaming IMO available CD32 controllers were OK.



Like a c64 RF monitor... ?


1. The NES controllers were uncomfortable, but atleast they didn't feel like some cheap knockoff controller made in a back alley of Hong Kong. Not to mention the design of the pack in controller was horrid, and the other one you post is an MD ripoff.

2. The CD32 was a piece of shit. You can weasel out of this and say "it had potential" or go on and on with hypothetical "but this...but that...but...". The thing is you can say the exact same stuff about ever other console that failed. The Bandai Playdia could've kicked ass, Bandai just didn't have enough cash...

3. The CD32 frequently appears on list of worst systems ever for a reason. It was poorly made and not even cheap enough to justify its purchase over a A1200. The problems that stood in the way of the CD32 being a success were set in stone the day they decided to put through that half baked design. Say all you want about weak cash flow and legal disputes, it failed because it was crap.

I really dont get why you're arguing this. Most people I know who are fans of the Amiga freely admit that the CD32 was a big mistake and hurt the brand name far more than it helped, not to mention they acknowledge how shitty it was.

Aside; Funny you ignore my post about how the SNES could be hooked up to a monitor without difficulty.

Like a c64 RF monitor... ?

The SNES can output RGB, so its easy to hook it up to a C64 monitor. (dont be stupid and argue this, I currently have my SNES running on RGB)
