| catofellow said: Not true at all. Each console that has won their respective generation, was by far the most powerful at the time of their release, except for Wii. Just because a more powerful console happened to come out later, which is inevitible due to hardware advancements over time, doesn't mean specs are irrelevent. Also, each console that has won (except for Wii) has gone out of their way to hype the hardware advancements (bits, polygons, 3d, plays dvd's, online play, etc.) Nintendo's marketing approach is more along the lines of here's our console, graphics aren't important, people don't really want the internet, but our games are really really fun. Nintendo fails to understand that they actually need to sell the hardware to people to get them to play the games in the first place. |
SNES wasn't the most powerful at launch, Neogeo was the most powerful hardware at that point.
