"The Sega CD had its place in history. I mean, don't get me wrong, it's a piece of s***. But it had a certain appeal. The 32X is the real deal. It sucks. Oh, God, it sucks." - Angry Video Game Nerd

He may be a character and not a serious critic, but AVGN nailed the perception of 32X quite well. Sega CD had some innovations for an add-on for a mainstream console and had some famous titles like Sonic CD.

32X was just pointless with Saturn on the way. And it's so bizarre to go from a CD add-on for Mega Drive back to a cartridge add-on all while a CD-based console is about to come out.

And Sonic was so popular that a 2D Sonic game exclusive to Saturn would've helped. Perhaps if Saturn with a 2D Sonic game and the other changes was more successful, we would've gotten a 3D Sonic game around 1997, and Adventure wouldn't need to happen until 1999 or 2000 globally as the second 3D Sonic game.

While SCD doesn't hold a candle in terms of software to the amazing PCE CD. SCD had a lot of great stuff. Android Assault. Robo Aleste. Popful Mail. Snatcher. Lunar 1-2. Just to name a few. tbh Sonic CD isn't very good.

Sonic CD is the best Sonic game by far. Fight me :P



I LOVE ICELAND!
