Why did the Saturn age the best compared to PSX and N64?
>>

A bigger focus on 2D which is timeless, plus no inherent crippling flaw in its 3D like the PS1's warping or the N64's blur.

Lol sure it did

PSX was incredibly popular and got so much use that the consoles would develop faults through overheating or lasers wearing out, and N64's main audience was packs of spastic children that couldn't take care of their own shit, so the controllers inevitably broke down.
Saturns, being comparatively unwanted, unloved, and kinda crap, escaped the 90s relatively untouched, and also had less retrospective interest or nostalgic desire in the mid-2000s retro boom, thus they tend to age much better.

It has the best games but it is an inferior way to play those games compared to emulating the arcade versions
>>
>>12612107
A lot of the Saturn ports are superior and have extra features actually. Like Battle Garegga for example
>>
>>12612187
Yeah most Saturn versions are definitive to this day.

>if i repeat the lie enough times it becomes true

PS1 was the shovelware system of its day. Its library is too bogged down with bullshit. N64 has the opposite problem. Some well-crafted first-party games but far too limited. Saturn is the perfect middle ground with a library of varied genres that people have been able to discover and appreciate in hindsight.

I miss the mods. I still have a small glimmer of hope that this board will go back to the pre hack days where there was actual discussion and retards were banned.
