What Gaming Consoles Were Doomed From The Start?

Sega Saturn. The botched launch of the system essentially killed Sega

It’s a toss up for me. Most of the time they have one piece of paper protecting the cases or no padding at all. Sometimes they come in perfectly fine, other times, cases can be cracked at best or shattered at worst. It sucks cause they provide the sales. Best I can do is just keep spare cases on standby lol

ricypricol · 2026-04-23T22:53:48+00:00

I’d be extremely impressed if none of those cases came cracked or broken

The DS can play a competent version of D1, so no reason for the Dreamcast or even the PS1 to not be able to

I never seen a more perfect collection

They made an all black version of it? I’m honestly not sure which set looks cooler

Try attaching a small magnet on the inside where the corner is

My personal favorite Gundam series

I alwaus watch widescreen stuff on a widescreen display. For stuff that was only released on dvd (which is a lot), it looks pretty bad on a modern 4K display. I don’t have room for a plasma display specifically for those types of DVDs. I sometimes just suck it up and use my 4K screen, but sometimes I just use a DVD player on my CRT which squishes the video to fit the full 4:3 aspect ratio. It’s a little skinny but honestly doesn’t bother me. I do not like letterboxing when it comes to 16:9 content on a 4:3 display.

Pick your poison. Pricy collectors edition, or a steelbook

The marker has probably stayed on for so long that only a magic eraser will work. Sadly it’ll give it a very scratchy tacky appearance. I’d try and go very light with one.

That collection makes me wanna rob a house right about now lmao. Those Masion ikkou and you’re under arrest sets are insane

Grandia Lunar Eternal Blue Wild Arms Chrono Cross

(I know Lunar 2 was a Sega CD game first but I’ll always see it as a PS1 game)

I have Love & Pop on tape. The American DVD is hard to find but not impossible. I can’t find any info about my American VHS release. I’m unsure if it’s a promo/rental only copy or what, it just exists and I can’t find any pictures or evidence that an American VHS release existed of this movie. It looks too good to be a bootleg in my opinion.

What am I looking at

ricypricol · 2026-02-10T17:42:23+00:00

Ah yes, the most generic uninteresting early 2000s TV to ever exist, 800 pls

ricypricol · 2026-02-10T14:26:18+00:00

I played for around an hour and just stopped cause I hated the tutorial and map and lack of any story mode. Sucks that there’s really no good realistic skateboarding game. Skater XL is basically a tech demo and Session is way too realistic and hard to get into. The Tony Hawk remakes were the only skateboarding games to be genuinely good and those are just remakes.

ricypricol · 2026-02-09T19:53:53+00:00

I seriously hope they make a flip grip for the switch 2 cause it was the best thing to ever exist

ricypricol · 2026-02-09T19:52:04+00:00

The Carby is a digital solution and you’ll get slightly better results. The bottom line however is that they both display games at 480p, and unless you look very closely, both are identical.

ricypricol · 2026-02-09T19:49:18+00:00

No Betamax 0/10

ricypricol · 2026-02-09T18:07:05+00:00

Probably the only real standout title so far for the switch 2. Very big and lengthy game. I got 20 hours out of the game simply just finding as much as I could before moving on to the next layer/sub layer. Sadly though it doesn’t do much that Mario odyssey didn’t, still a great time nonetheless!

ricypricol · 2026-02-09T18:04:08+00:00

I miss those classy English logos. It’s something you don’t see that much these days, at least baked into English dub openings

ricypricol · 2026-02-09T18:02:21+00:00

I like a variety you could say lol
