Forums - Gaming - Ok, who here failed to DO THE MATH and didn't buy an Atari Jaguar?

In keeping with how fanboys vent, and reason, I will go under the Mt. Fuji logo and reason like an Atari fanboy!  Mt. Fuji symbol mode ON!

Ok, which of you didn't buy a Jaguar?  Didn't you DO THE MATH?  Didn't you know 64 bit (and yes, the Jaguar was a 64 bit system, just as the TurboGrafx-16/PC Engine is a 16bit system) was greater than 32 bit?  Come on, more bits mean more power!  As can be seen here:

So, why didn't you buy?  Don't know you know the Jaguar had MORE power?  Didn't you grasp it was superior to an SNES and Genesis?  Why didn't you buy it?  Why didn't you DO THE MATH?  Don't you know, if you did DO THE MATH you would of had no choice but to buy a Jaguar.  So why didn't you?  You scared of adding some numbers together?  You frighten of trying to figure out whether or not 64 is greater than 32 or 16?

 

/Mt. Fuji symbol mode off (Being an Atari fanboy)

 

Ok, so I write this for several reasons:

1. Just curious if anyone actually was into videogames these days and explain why you didn't buy a Jaguar, eventhough Atari told you to "DO THE MATH!"

2. Show you what being a fanboy looks to me, when you scream at people who like Wii systems as being stupid, and bash either PS3 or 360 owners (you own the other system) as being stupid.

Have you finally Snaped!?



A classic example of why graphical power /= sales or quality. Seriously the SNES is the only system to date to win its gen as the most powerful (and it is actually debatable if it was the most powerful that gen or not). Don't get me wrong graphics are great, but once you get right down to it people want a system that isn't going to break the bank and has fun games - fortunately the market has become diverse enough that there are plenty of people that believe this of all three consoles.



Currently dreaming of: DKC4 or Sonic the Hedgehog 4 (classic 2D platformers) for WiiWare, Smash Bros. for DSi, New Super Mario World for DSi, a Wii remake or true sequel of Final Fantasy Tactics.

One down, hopefully more awesomeness to come.

You are about 17 years too late dude.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

Only if no one here had a chance to buy a Jaguar back in its day.

Apparently, by what I read in threads on here, there are fanboys who don't believe this.  To some, a price cut by the PS3 will end up burying even the Wii, for example.  Apparently the Wii outselling the less expensive 360 arcade unit doesn't register.  And this spec and that is what is supposed to make all the difference.

Someone should have informed me of its existence back in the day.

I had both a Genesis and SNES, I don't even remember hearing about the Jaguar.
