Just to move it from another thread, some people seem to think that consoles with very few games just tend to have a lot of crap games and should be left for dead. I tend to disagree as every system has at least one excellent enjoyable game, granted the systems and games may have aged badly but as long as you aren't 15 and talk in l33t speak and cry if someone shoots you in Halo then I think that you can find the gems. So anyone have an comments or suggest systems that were utter tripe that there are no good games?
there was a wonderful tetris on cd-i that used FMV on the background and sweet, sweet music and a few other good games too...
Warioland on the VB is actually more complex and some would say better than its GB brother. I personally like it (Warioland VB) much more than Warioland 2 on the GB/C and the subsequent sequels.
I used to have loads of fun with Dymo's Quest. And Flintstones Jetsons Time Warp and Cartoon Carnival are great for young kids.
I thought The Apprentice was good, although that may be more for the visuals than the game-play... I guess that one's down to personal preference; I liked it, but can understand if others don't. The CD32 had quite a few good games (in my opinion) thanks to the fact that it was basically an Amiga 1200 with a CD-ROM drive. Two of my favourite games are Liberation: Captive 2 and Alien Breed 2: Tower Assault.
Virtual Boy - Warioland, T&E Golf (personally I bought the VB just for this game alone....), 3D Tetris, Warioclash. CD-i - Burn Cycle, Tetris, Voyeur FM Towns Marty - I can't believe someone said that, someone take him outside and shoot him. Tatsujin Oh, Zak MacKrakken (definate version of the game), Loom. Pippin - Super Marathon PC-FX - Chip Chan Kick, Zenki CD-32 - As mentioned Liberation: Captive 2, Alien Breed 2: Tower Assault, Simon the Sorcerer, Jetstrike. Super A'Can - Boomzoo and that Puzzle Game whose name escapes me at the moment. Playdia - This is a kids toy and not a games console, next you'll say whats a good game on the Sega Pico or Memorex VIS....
I think I'm going to have to agree with you there... Although I have spent a little too much time playing Duke Nukem 3D on it. If the controls weren't so delayed and the screen wasn't so blurry, it'd almost be okay. Ish. Maybe. Or not...
I think that's unfair because not everybody thinks that. I guess it's not like other games consoles, but other people might say that the Virtual Boy isn't too, so I think I would include it myself.
I guess this also comes down to personal preference. I guess you meant 'playable' by good games? I can mention quite some consoles/handhelds which I would never play even if I got them for free. I do agree however that more games /= more good games.
