I have immense respect for SNES; I still play SNES games via emulator to this day, but the undisputed winner is PS1.

5 reasons:

1. First console to break the 100M barrier, making consoles something for the general public.


2. The most remarkable game lineup, thanks to strong support from third-party developers.


3. Empowerment of third-party developers, previously held hostage by draconian practices.


4. Introduction of digital discs, which revolutionized the manufacturing and distribution of games.


5. First and only time the "newcomer" dominated established rivals in the market, due to price (games/console) and high quality games.
