Message: [QUOTE="Somnia, post: 26253, member: 26523"] 5th generation! They only beat the PS1 and Saturn to market by a year at most and a big push was for 3D gaming, just like the big 3 of the 5th generation. The 3DO and Jaguar were discontinued in 1996, 2 years after the PS1 and Saturn released. This means they technically spent more of their lives as direct competitors to the PS1 and Saturn - systems they are already far more comparable to anyways - than the SNES and Genesis. After all, we don't consider the PC Engine a 3rd generation system despite it launching in 1987, beating the Genesis to market by a whole year just like the 3DO and Jaguar did. I know it can be weird saying that the generation technically starts with systems that flopped hardcore (though the 3DO is a neat little system) but it is what it is. [/QUOTE]
