The mushroom shape, how it went back to using carts after the Sega CD, the fact that its existence caused the Shiturn to fail... something very alluring about this thing. Oh, and most importantly, no fucking weebshit or cringey jarpigs to be seen in its library, instead it's all chad-tier action and sports games.

Saturn > Dreamcast > Genesis > Sega CD >>>>>>>>>>>>>>Master Shit >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> whatever the 32x was supposed to be

The Saturn, Dreamcast and Genesis are all almost equal in terms of how many quality games they had. You could switch the first 3 around anyway you like and you still wouldn't be wrong. All three are S-tier systems and really close but that's how I'd rank them. Sega CD is a not so distant fourth, pretty underrated honestly. And then you're left with worse NES and the 32x. Two systems the world could live without

Basically every failed console can be enjoyed in 2021. Its no skin off your back that you bet on the wrong company or that you didn't help their sales back then. The Saturn was an objective failure but it's got cool games worth playing in 2021, same for this or any other shit console.

No, it's because BRs are poor third worlders that still can't afford something better.

Bought a 32X when they were cheap and long dead. System looks like crap but would have been a nice budget system if they stuck with it. Space Harrier and Afterburner are still amazing even today. Shame we never got an Outrun port. Would have been great.

>Sega's forward strategy involved repeatedly releasing addons that were expensive, not worth the price at all and would immediately become failed products, after saying "dude trust me" to developers who would go on to get completely fucked in the ass by this process, twice
>people were still persuaded to develop for the Saturn after this, even though Sega wouldn't provide accurate OR complete documentation and gave them zero tools to work with the most batshit insane machine and rendering techniques ever used (and never repeated), which was all caused by last-minute hardware changes
>Sega make the Dreamcast, and tell devs that it now has some last-minute hardware changes
>they STILL got them to do it after all this and every sign that they'd be fucked over, in a very consistent pattern

Did Sega have a hypnotist or something? How did they convince people to develop for them after they slid the 4th consecutive "fuck you" note across the table in complete seriousness?

It was a bad idea, but there are a few games that I like on it. Virtua Fighter, Virtua Racing Deluxe, Shadow Squadron, Zaxxon's Motherbase 2000, After Burner Complete, Knuckles Chaotix, Tempo. The system didn't have a very big library because it was short lived. But for a weird 32bit add-on, it is interesting.

It was better than the SuperFX chip, since you could get one and buy 32X games at regular price instead of paying 90 bucks per game.

Shame Sega retardedly killed it off after 6 months. I'd love an alternate universe where they ran with the Genesis+32X and never released the Shiturn, then we get a Dreamcast that could be properly supported by Sega since the Shiturn wouldn't have put them in the red.

If I had wizard-tier programming skills, I'd develop a glorious game for the 32x to show what that thing was truly capable of. I actually think it was a terrific piece of hardware that never got to show its full potential.

Sega -had- to kill it off because
1) It simply wouldn't have been competitive as a Mega Drive crutch on a hardware level going forward with the Playstation launch a year away.
2) People simply weren't buying it after they already paid new console money for a CD addon two years prior. If you want to shell out for upgrades every two years you can just buy a PC instead of a console.

Sega shit the bed. They should have delayed Saturn and made it fully backward compatible with genesis. I mean it already had a fucking cart slot built in. One expensive addon was already enough with sega cd and they could have supported that at least until 96 and had a stronger Saturn launch.

I don't think supporting the 32X for a year more and delaying the Saturn by a year would've helped things, but backwards compatibility probably would've.

I'm aware you're being sarcastic but if you consider it a separate console, six games that are all FMVs and are all irredeemable trash, combined with the price tag of assembling all three components (and three power bricks) may very well make it a contender for worst console of all time.

Viruta Racer and Doom both had better frame rates than Saturns. Mortal Kombat 2 ran smoother and Virtua Fighter was also better on 32x.

scrap that. Virtua racer was smoother on Saturn. Still, Daytona USA was such a shit port I don't think 32x would have to do much to beat it.
