Cheebee said: If graphics mattered, N64 would have demolished PS1; GameCube & Xbox would've trounced PS2; PSP would have eaten DS alive; Wii would've been destroyed by PS360, and Vita would rule supreme over 3DS. Also, Nintendo would never have released another handheld after the original GameBoy. |
PS1 often beat N64 for graphics easily. Not only did the N64 often render at a lower resolution, it had limited storage on cartridge and finally the PS1 supported high quality RGB output where as the N64 was composite or s-video. As for ps2 it had some fine graphics. Don't forget it had a version of Gran Turismo at 1920x1080i resolution. It also had 32bit colour not 24bit like Gamecube. I think the rules change on handhelds because superior graphics often come at the expense of battery life.
