What Was The Best Sega Console?

Which one of these was your favourite console by Sega and why?

TL · February 13, 2012, 21:22:07 PM

I went with the Megadrive, my favourite console, mainly because of its huge library of games.

The Saturn is the runner-up for me.

I went for the Dreamcast. Awesome design, Awesome games.. Totally under rated. Sega could have done so much more with it but sadly Sony were to powerful.

Gotta be the Mega drive for me.
I just loved this console.There were ton's of great games for it that would keep my busy all day.

The Japanese Saturn is my all-time favorite console. (Dreamcast and Genesis are great too)

To me, the Japanese Saturn library is the pinnacle of 2D gaming with amazing games across all genres. esp. shmups and fighting games

That's an area I need to look at then. That's the beauty of retro gaming. Learning something new each day.

Which games did you buy?

TL · February 15, 2012, 19:30:58 PM

I actually got them today!!!!! They took less than a week to get here!!!!Â

This is what I bought:

Space Invaders - Because I love all the versions I have ever played of this, although I know nothing about the Saturn one so I hope I am not disappointed by it!

Hat Trick Hero S - This is one of my favourite arcade games ever so I was over the moon when I found out there was a Saturn port of it as I thought it never came out on a home system!

Real Bout Fatal Fury Special - I always liked the Neo Geo versions of Fatal Fury and even the Megadrive port too so thought I would get this too because it was really damn cheap!

Dead Or Alive - I clearly remember salivating over this game when I saw it previewed in the Official Sega Saturn Magazine over here. It was a really nice price too so decieded to pick it up.

All of those for less than £25 with the postage!

Has to be Megadrive, after the late start of the Master System after the NES, Sega needed something to counter Nintendo, and it came back with the coolest machine on the block which every self respecting gamer owned!

Dreamcast. Because I said so!

megadrive here. Though i've yet to explore Dreamcast yet, but
first loves and all that.

my fairly obviously answer was the DC, I truly love and adore the MD and Saturn still even today but the Dreamcast was the first console I bought on release and I poured my heart and soul into my collection and the DC absolutely never disappointed. I'd have to say that, as far as consoles go, its always going to represent the absolute pinnacle of what a console should be, one word; fun
