OT: look where Crash is today. I loved those games back in the PS1 era, Crash Bandicoot Cortex strikes back...... good times.


This wasn't about Crash winning, it was about PS1 winning by putting it in peoples minds that the PS1 was cool and Nintendo was for losers.

It worked.

Please, nobody was convinced Playstation was cool by a guy in a mascot marsupial suit yelling childish things. The library did that.


Yes, yes it did. It made Crash seem cool. Sony basically took Sega's ideas and ran with them. Remember the commercial where Sony was launching N64's in the air and blowing them to pieces with a shotgun? Kids and adults gobbled that shit up like candy and beer.

The latter was Sega, not Sony.

Not even primary school kids thought a guy in a plushie suit was "cool".
