I also recall that many developers thought that THE future of videogames around the end of the SNES era was going to be pre-rendered graphics like DKC. Killer instinct was merely a glimpse into that future. Then 3D happened. I'd have loved to see how a pre-rendered 2D on steroids generation would have looked like. |

Coastal_elite 04/30/20 5:09:54 PM #118 | @KamenRiderBlade The 3D0, Jaguar and virtual boy were such odd balls. They may be officially part of the same generation as the saturn/ps1, but in reality they were a weird fish out of the water sort of oddball. They were trying to establish themselves as 5th generation consoles, but the industry was undergoing radical transformations. They thought the future was going to be basically the SNES on steroids, and nobody was sure what'd happen. The 3D0 was CD based, the Jag was cart based, the VB was 3D graphics. None could really do polygons well, ranging from no polygons (VB) to slightly above what the SNES + FX2 chip could do (Jag). The real 5th gen started with the Saturn, in my personal opinion, that's when the idea of what the next gen would be solidified. |

Coastal_elite 04/30/20 4:35:05 PM #116 | KamenRiderBlade posted... I concur, Genesis was made to counter the NES, console generations weren't as consistent back then as they are now. Then SNES came along 2 years after the Genesis and whooped it's butt in terms of hadware capabilities. This is all very interesting. Thanks for having this back and forth with me, I am enjoying it so much. I disagree this too: The N64 was not released so late because they didn't want to pull a SEGA, or because they were waiting for the battlefield to clear up. When SEGA launched the SEGA CD nintendo freaked out and tried to release a CD add on of their on, the "SNES Playstation". Then they realized they'd lose royalties because it's CD based and backed out. Sony got mad and they worked on the PS1 by themselves. All of the time lost working on the SNES-PS1 meant that they'd not have a system to compete in time with the Saturn and PS1. So in in their infinite wisdom they decided to "skip the 32 bit generation and jump straight into 64 bits" and they also pressured Gumpei Yokoi to release the VB, which was by no means ready, so it could be a stop gap to "let nintendo players experience the 32 bit generation" and hold off until the N64 was ready. Yeah, we know how that went LOL. |

Coastal_elite 04/30/20 4:24:34 PM #113 | Balrog0 posted... I dunno about the SNES being more powerful than the Genesis. In a lot of ways that is true (sound is a big one, color is another) but the Genesis can actually handle more from what I understand - I'm technologically illiterate but you can see this in the differences in how well Genesis handles shmups vs SNES in general. Genesis has much less slowdown. The genesis was basically a very fast processor (for the time) and shit everything else. The SNES was a slow processor but state of the art everything else. The genesis could display a 512 color palette, while the SNES had 32,768. The SNES could handle many more on-screen sprites and it had built-in support for scaling, rotation and mode 7. Nintendo knew that the SNES' slow chip wouldn't cut it, but they didn't want to make the console too expensive. So they used chips whenever necessary in the carts. You had the DSP, FX, SA-1, FX2, etc. Even launch games had some of these chips, Pilotwings had the DSP, for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Super_NES_enhancement_chips |

Coastal_elite 04/30/20 4:05:32 PM #111 | KamenRiderBlade posted... As far as color, Genesis came out with color technology that was better than NES, and that's all that mattered at the time of development. But Nintendo countered with SNES, and we have history. SEGA is basically guilty of competing with Nintendo, losing and then after they get their ass kicked by nintendo they usher a new generation out of pettiness. SMS vs NES - NES wins *sega gets mad and releases Genesis to beat the NES* *Nintendo releases SNES because the Genesis is a thing* Genesis vs SNES - SNES wins *sega released CD, it doesn't matter* *Jaguar enters the arena, so does 3D0* So once again sega got their ass kicked and thought the saturn/32x to beat the SNES. Then they were caught off guard by the PS1's superiority. The dreamcast was made to compete with the PS1/N64, after their own saturn got their ass kicked. No wonder the PS2/GC were so much more advanced. Also, the sega CD was NOT made to compete with the jaguar and 3D0, those came much later. It was meant to defeat the SNES. |

Coastal_elite 04/30/20 3:57:47 PM #110 | KamenRiderBlade posted... Yup Sega has a history of going for the "High End" ultimate powerful hardware instead of what was "Affordable". They cared more about the "Upscale Experience". The only time in Nintendo's history that it was the "Most Powerful" was when it released the SNES. And that was because it's timing was "Off-cycle" and caught everybody off-guard. Ergo it had no competition, everybody was scrambling. The SNES was literally the counter-punch to the Genesis, but better in every way because Nintendo had 2 extra years to react to the Genesis. And 2 Years back then gave you ALOT of R&D advancement. I beg to differ on that one. The Genesis was made to counter the NES, back when the famicon/NES had already kicked the butts of the SG1000, mark1 and SMS. They had no option but to "double the bits", "add an extra button" and "make sure the console shell has a 16-BIT sign with big letters". The genesis had a lot of years on the NES it was designed to compete with. The SNES was designed to compete with the Genesis, so that's a more fair comparison. The SNES was clearly more powerful and it had much better sound. The N64 was actually a moon shot. It was more powerful than the PCs of the time, and it had stuff like z-buffering and antialiasing, which are things that not even the Wii had later on. The N64's one sin was to go with carts, which wasn't decided for affordability's sake, on the contrary, it made games more expensive. It was a decision out of greed (keeping the royalties). The Dreamcast was far weaker than the GC and PS2. The GC was the most powerful of the 3, until the xbox came along. Yeah, after the GC nintendo focused on cheap, cheap cheap hardware, but wasn't Sega dead by then? The SNES/N64/GC were known for being the most powerful systems of their generations, with the exception of the xbox, which came later. As for portables, yes, those were always the weakest, I agree. |
Topic | What's with conservatives being ok with 1-5% of old people dying? |
Coastal_elite 04/30/20 3:35:00 PM #14 | Bestoffuture posted... Got into an argument on Facebook about this and they're acting like it's not a big deal because young people won't die from it. most conservative thoughts and principles are dictated by the corporate powers that be. They're then trickled down to the conservative base through a combination of religious excuses, racist excuses and false "MUH BOOTSTRAPS" bravado excuses, these 3 kind of excuses have been used since the inception of the southern strategy to make conservative voters vote and fight for things that go against their interests. For example, disappearing welfare. Disappearing welfare is good for corporate bottom lines, as people will work for less and the state will have more money to give to corporations in the the form of tax breaks. So they use the 3 excuses (race, religion, bootstrap bravado) and stitch this narrative: "black welfare queens and illegals use welfare, not us real americans, plus it's laziness is a sin, and also, we would rather work since we pull ourselves by our boot straps". Covid deaths? Same thing. "It's ok if COVID kills us, please open everything, only immigrants are dying from COVID, my pastor said I won't get COVID and I want to work". |

Coastal_elite 04/30/20 1:10:08 PM #103 | BlazinBlue88 posted... I'm a big Sega fan but the GameGear never interested me. All the game seemed to be just dumbed down ports of Genesis games so I didn't see a point in it. I did get the Nomad though. Being able to play my Genesis games during car trips was mindblowing. The Nomad also ate batteries like crazy. If you didn't invest in the rechargeable battery pack then you were an idiot. It still only lasted about 2 hours. it's funny, this is the reason I liked the GG. I liked my console games, so if I had to be away from home but I wanted to keep playing (say you're at grandma's house or your parents took you somewhere you don't want to me, or whatever) I could always bring my GG with me and keep playing a version of the,. It'd be awesome to play the same game, but it wasn't feasible (truly, it wasn't feasible until the Switch!), plus the console experience doesn't translate too well into portables sometimes. The gameboy was sort of the same too, you had the SNES marios and the GB marios, the donkey kongs, mortal kombats, etc etc |

But this idea is coming from a dark place, and that's the part I disagree with. They shouldn't be able to take their education back to china. But they shouldn't be able come here and take our jobs either, right? (I am not saying you say that, but many, many GOP people say so). So what should they do if they can't work here or go back to their homes? Should they evaporate after they get their education? The natural progression of this is "we shouldn't have foreign students at all". Notice how Cotton & his GOP buddies first push for "STEM engineer immigration only" (like his RACE act) and then a few years later they go like "they shouldn't be able to study STEM here". |
