SNES/N64/GC were not withered tech, (with the exception of cartridges on N64) they were powerful, graphically competitive systems at the time of release.

My meaning was that because Nintendo launched after their rivals they could afford more power at a good price; thats why they had better graphics and all. They didnt use cutting edge tech back than either, because they didnt have to since they launched after the competitors and could use "mature" tech at a reasonable price. Withered might have been the wrong word. Mature might be better

Mature does work better, but if that's mature tech then so is, say, PS4 and Xbone.

They're not exactly cutting edge in the grand scheme of gaming technology.
