    Which neither Playstation or Saturn conform to.
    Saturn certainly does (Sega recently instituted their own "5 star
    policy"). I'd even go so far to say Sega alone manages to produce more
    high quality games than Nintendo will in the next 2 years ;-) Pointless harping aside, there's not a system in creation that doesn't suffer from
    bad games. The PSx does, the Saturn does, and the N64 does. You can't
    avoid them, and it's silly to take a company's promise that "no more bad games will appear for our system" at face value.
    CD's replace poor animation, long loading waits, little memory, and choppy graphics with live cinema to try and compensate. being a PSX owner I know.

    This makes no sense. Choppy graphics and bad animation? (MKT was smoother
    on the PSx than the N64 thanks to the increased storage) Unless you
    possess some form of visiual defect, the games (especially the polygon
    ones) don't suffer from either problem.
    (Or is Toshinden 2 the only PSx game you've played? That would explain a lot.. Poor animation, terrrible live action FMV intro, not especially long loading times)

    Jesus Christ!! These N64 owners are starting to sound like former
    Genesis owners, endlessly trying to defend their system. N64 is not as
    good as the PSX or the import Saturn, for three reasons: N64 games use
    carts, which don't have enough memory for today's games (repeating
    textures, fewer sound effects/musical tracks, smaller gameplay areas),
    there is little third-party support when compared to Saturn or
    PlayStation (these guys make the games), and there are not enough
    quality games. "Qaulity over quantity" is a great marketing ploy. Saturn
    and PlayStation also have the advantages of CDs: Redbook audio, cinemas (don't you even say thy're pointless, look at FFVII or Tomb Raider, or Resident Evil, or OverBlood, or... The list goes on...), and much more
    memory to put stuff in. 64DD sucks already; it lacks memory and the rewriatablity thing won't be used as much as you think. NINTENDO 64
    SUCKS, SNES ROCKED, GAME BOY ROCKED, NES ROCKED, VIRTUAL BOY SUCKED, GET
    ON WITH YOUR LIVES PEOPLE!!!!!!

    N64 doesn’t suck, virtual boy doesn’t suck. N64 is more powerful than PlayStation and it IS as good as the PlayStation and saturn dumbass. Carts do have enough memory. There is a lot of third party games for n64 and there is enough quality games.
    Sega Saturn has no advantages. 64DD doesn’t suck and it doesn’t lack jack and the rewrite ability thing is good so stfu
