What game console are you getting?

<< < (2/4) > >>

Draconis:
While games and thier respective consoles go up with every system, you have to realize everything else is as well.

do you recall what gas and a gallon of milk was when the super nintendo was the latest and greatest? I recall SNES games being 40 or 50 bucks at Toy-R-Us and that was expensive back then.
I believe that a lot of people feel the snes was the last standout system was because the sega genesis was it's only compeitor...compare that to Nintentdo,Sony, and Microsoft today.
Also the SNES had a vast library of 3rd party games, the reason the first PS was so successful.
600+ is too much for a gaming console but 700 is cheap for a blue-ray player and that's another angle they are going for.

I love my nes,snes,64 and cube...I'll eventually get a wii but not till next year.

P.S. I bought my dreamcast on 9.9.99 and still have it hooked up to the tele...it's not dead to me!!

My ex also had a Dreamcast (I don't know if he still has it, or if it's still working).  Many hours were spent by the both of us playing Soul Calibur.  That game was awesome.  Soul Calibur 2 just isn't the same.

I still have my Sega Genesis.  It still works, and I still occasionally play it.  My family also has our Turbo Grafix (I think that's how they spelled it) 16, and my brother just recently hooked up his SNES to the TV in the den so we can all play it.  We love the old school systems.

PlasticYakuza:
I don't have any interest in any of the consoles. Didn't even buy a XBox 360. Even the "180" is only still plugged in for the XBMC. I still play my PS2 (working my way through Star Ocean 3), but with work/fansubbing/friends/family and what not I have very little time for it anymore.

YaoiBoy:
Wow... I'm a n00b here. I haven't had a console game system since the Sears Super Video Arcade (Intellivision Clone). You remember that: http://www.vidgame.net/SEARS/SUPVIDARC.html

Hehe... The computer completely took over with the wonderful Sierra adventure games (Kings Quest, Space Quest). Computers made consoles unnecessary for me.

Peace!

Tatsuki:
I dont think any jus yet. I love my PS2 as it is. Has many games that dont wear out.

If i am to get it be Wii first. Cheap. May get PS3 6 months later when it is cheaper for final fantasy games etc
