Why was the Playstation the undisputed king of shovelware? There was maybe 10 good games and the rest was left to rot on shelves.

Yeah the playstation was really shitty in terms of graphics output, it was only successful because it was the cheaper alternative for people who couldn't afford nintendo's line of consoles.

Funny, I thought you were talking about the SNES for a moment there.

and that's why PS1 games are more memorable and sought after and the SNES is a forgettable and mediocre console, right?
>>
>>12632807
>>12632869
The NES is the only accurate one here, the SNES is superb, but NES games are so bad and broken
>>
>>12632873
That's correct. Are you mad? I would offer you to fuck off to the SNES thread, but nobody has made one for a long while. Nobody cares about the shit SNES anymore.

Now type that again without crying and denying reality, snoy. People are spending hundreds for SNES games like earthbound and CT but nobody and I mean fucking NOBODY is spending thousands for croc 2

Cool! You named 2 of the SNES games people actually care about. Unfortunately you're going to run out of those very quickly.

Alright which eceleb made a PS1 bad video? The catalog is filled with this garbage for some reason
>>
>>12632807
In the console world yes. Sony lowered the bar for making games so anyone could release garbage shovelware. Can you imagine the disapointmebt when some uneducated mom brought home one of those titles
>>
>>12632807
No, it had a lot, most good consoles that sold a lot did, like the NES too... but the kings are PS2, Wii or GBA.

Another thread by this deranged liar.

>>12632807
psx is barely better than a SNES with a vector calculator. half of the games are 2D slop and not even neo geo quality.

It seems like it's just some Saturn autist who is shitting on PS1/N64 because I haven't seen one thread spouting negativity about the Saturn. Curious.
>>
>>12632807
It was surpassed by the WIi by far.
>>
>>12632807
CDs were cheap
>>
>>12632807
For publishers, it's incredibly advantageous to develop for the PS1 compared to the N64.

They're the only ones to offer an easily accessible development kit.
It costs $9 on the PS1 instead of $31 on the N64 (and around $20 on the Saturn).

And if sales are poor, Sony buys back a portion of the unsold games.

>>12632873
Yeah go to any retro store and they'll tell you they sell a much higher volume of playstation than anything else.
>>
>>12632807
Why Are You A Gay Nigger OP? Stop Making Low Quality Threads Please.
>>
>>12632807
Its not like it had much else - it had RE, SH, some jRPGs, a few other Gems and then loads and loads of shovelware. Only the Wii would eclipse it.

You hate being called out, fagboy?

Having a better overall catalog than the competition helped it too

Hey faggot tendie mods, how about banning this fucker already? Is this like the 10th low bait anti sony thread in 2 days already?
No, too busy jerking off to pokemon little girls and star fox furries? Okey.
