@Legend -- many of what you described came elsewhere --
From Sony.
Memory card -- yes, though Sega Saturn had external memory too.
Disc based media -- Nintendo Famicom Disk. (CD medium included CDI and Sega CD).
Backwards compatibility -- Atari 7800, Atari and Sega through add-ons. (In the classic era, Mattel and Coleco even brought out add-ons that let you play another system's games on your system).
Playing music cds -- Sega CD.
Playing movie dvds on console -- Yes, though others (3DO perhaps) played VCDs.
Microsoft's list is spot-on though.

I am Mario. I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
