Console | Description | Year released | Bits |
---|---|---|---|
Atari Jaguar | We couldn't not have a section dedicated to Adrian's favourite console. | 1993 | 64 - but that's debatable |
Nintendo Entertainment System | The NES established Nintendo as one of the key competitors in the market but missed all of us at AA growing up. Good job we've got UKNESBoy on board to help us out. | 1983 | 8 |
SEGA Dreamcast | SEGA's short-lived last console is still loved by many. Definitely ahead of its time, we attempt to pick apart its back catalogue. | 1998 | N/A (6th Gen console) |
SEGA Master System | SEGA's 8-bit wonder was overshadowed by the NES in terms of sales but its library is solid and it's the only one on this site still in production. | 1985 (Mark III) | 8 |
SEGA Mega Drive (Genesis) | We'll argue to the death this is the greatest console of all time. | 1988 | 16 |
SEGA Saturn | Keith's favourite ever console (probably tied with the MD) takes its place on the list with coin-op conversions and SEGA exclusives aplenty... | 1994 | 32 |
Sony PlayStation | The game changer (literally) in the console wars | 1994 | 32 |
Sony PS2 | Only bettered by the DS and its offshoots in terms of sales - over 150 million units exist worldwide | 2000 | N/A (6th Gen console) |
Super Nintendo | Went toe-to-toe with the Mega Drive for many years. So many great games to explore, so little time. | 1991 | 16 |
