What Game

[Wariat]

On the 32X you think was impossible on any other system at the time? like couldn't have been reworked for the Sega CD, the genesis or the Super Nintendo? vs what game on the Sega CD did this? vs jaguar vs 3do etc? basically showcased the system and made you go out to buy it as it had a game only possible at the time a short time say before the Saturn or psi came out to shine?

I think Knuckles' Chaotix would have been very hard to pull off on other systems because of its nightmare-inducing color palettes. It has a very distinct look that I don't think was easily matched on other consoles at the time.

wait, virtua fighter came out for the sega saturn before it released for the 32x addon? what?!

Doom on the 32X was a Dud but at the time was the only port that run semi-ok. Also Kolibri i guess, it looked really detailed at least

Zaxxon Motherbase 2000, my favorite 32X game and the best reason to own (or emulate) one.

sort of like tempest 2000 on jaguar no?

Ehhh.. no.

Yeah, the 32X actually came out after the Saturn in Japan, and Sega of Japan was mostly focused on the Saturn at the time only giving the 32X the minimum amount of dev effort.

That's also why the Saturn version of Virtua Fighter is kind of balls though. It was super rushed to meet the launch.

Nothing honestly. Chaotix 100% could’ve been replicated on Sonic CD’s engine on the Sega CD.

Shadow Squadron’s cool, but idk why it’s exclusive

Can’t confirm or deny anything about Virtua Fighter though

 

[Wariat]

ok but could it have been done with the virtual racing chip as a cartrige and not with the added sega cd memory and processor?

I mean there had to be reasons for these addon systems to exist right? Besides just fmv movies on sega cd?
