Lol, N64? In all honesty?


It must be due to age. It has to be. Otherwise, he would definitely be saying Famicom/NES.




truth be told, i know for a fact that many of you have 10+ years on me in terms of age.
and admittedly, MOST of the games on 64 are shite.
that said, there's plenty to enjoy on the system, and some games that i don't think anyone who calls themselves a "gamer" can avoid.

I love that only one vote was cast for "I am EvilXEVoIX". Hopefully that was actually him. :P

For me, unfortunately, I'd have to pick the Genesis/Mega Drive over the PC Engine.  There are simply more games on it that I like.  I came this close to choosing the PCE on Soldier Blade alone, though.

However, I voted that I'm EvilEvoIX. :/

Yes yes you are. 
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

And what games  in particular could that be?

Do you f.e. also like MD raiden over PCE raiden?

Sega does what Nintendon't, but only NEC does better than both together!^^

No, PCE Raiden is my favorite version.  And you really wanna know?  Well, rather than list all the games I like on the genny, I'll pick my favorites from both the PCE and the MD.  Some of these I don't actually have, but have played via emulation.

Genesis:
Alien Soldier
Battle Frenzy/Blood Shot
Shinobi III
Thunder Force IV
Ranger X
Darius II (I don't care for the PCE version)
Outlander (don't hate)
Burning Force
Beyond Oasis
Virtua Racing
Gunstar Heroes
MUSHA
The Ninja Warriors
Stellar Assault

PCE:
Soldier Blade
Sapphire
Ninja Spirit
Super Darius/Darius Plus (I'd take either)
Bloody Wolf
Dracula X
Genpei Toumaden
After Burner
Cadash
Raiden


I hope you guys understand I'm not bashing the PCE when I say stuff like that.  I adore my PCE.  It's just that the Genesis has more, cheaper titles that I like than teh obey.  The cheapest PCE game I've ever bought was $15, and I could get like 3 Genesis games for that much.

I sure love my Duo, but if I had to pick only 1 system to spend the rest of my days with it would have to be the Neo. There's just too much nostalgia tied up in it for me to give it up if that had to be my only choice!

That's interesting because I bought Genpei Toumaden last year for $11 shipped from Japan.  It was my second PCE game I ever bought and I only got it because it was cheap and I just wanted it to test my Duo with as I wanted to make sure the problems weren't with the two games I did have.

Damn seriously!?  I have yet to find a copy for under $15, without shipping!  Granted, I haven't been looking for very long.  There WAS a copy someone here was selling for $3, but SOMEONE beat me to it!  ;)

 :-k hmm.. thats a strange list. I see a Sapphire, but no Gate of Thunder, no Winds of Thunder, no Seirei Senshi Spriggan, no Nexzr, no Star Parodier ..etc? which form the very toptier "almost" exclusive shoot'em ups on the system.

Winds of Thunder looks kind of cool, but the others don't appeal to me enough to pay the prices they go for.  And as for Star Parodier...it takes a lot to get me to like a cute-em-up.  So far, Fantasy Zone is the only one that I've really liked.  I love cute stuff, but as far as video games go, I'd typically rather play something semi-serious.

Also, the Genesis has more not-shmups that I like than the PCE.
