Today, let's take a nostalgic trip down memory lane with a little "What if...?" scenario. Remember the Sega 32X? It was this ambitious add-on for the Sega Genesis that aimed to catapult the beloved console into next-gen territory. While it didn't quite hit its mark, it left us wondering: what other classic consoles could have benefited from a similar leap forward?
Let's imagine—what if the N64 had gotten an "N128" upgrade? Could it have kept up with the PS1 and Saturn in that fierce console war era? Or maybe there’s another platform itching for a second wind, like the SNES or even the beloved Game Boy!
What other consoles do you think should've received their own "next-gen" add-ons?
Nintendo kept sticking with hardware that was difficult to develop on, capacity wise, and nintendo didnt want their content to mature with its audience. So devs were more than happy to switch to the new cd based system from sony.
I wonder how many devs started workin on projects when nintendo shitcanned their cd add on.
Square basically abandoned nintendo, and ill say squaresoft games of the nes and snes era are best examples of non nintendo ip ever produced for those systems, though im absolutely biased on that ill admit, that doesnt mean im not correct
