/vr/ - Retro Games

3D gamespaces and the tech to do it was new, as far as consoles went. Panasonic, Sony, Sega, even Atari all developed the the hardware to create 3D games within SNES' lifespan. But they bitched out and took the easyvway out: CD. Nintendo stayed with cartridge format (after tinkering with Sony with CD tech. Way to create your own competition Nintendo). Limited space and not as pretty graphics as CD. Again, damn shame. At least Acclaim didn't totally abandon or otherwise half ass their efforts with Nintendo. At least one more or maybe one and a half year exrta time would've been etter.
That's why the graphics expansion pak HAD to be released, at a tremendous cost to Rare (I REALLY hope that event wasn't a reason for them selling out eventually).
So yes, rushed.
