Best console gaming generations
Its all downhill after that
The only way you could spin the PS1 or 2 doing damage to the industry is by how hard they pushed Nintendo out of the core console market and forced them to chase non gamers and the mobile market. I'd argue Nintendo's presence in the AAA market is more sorely felt than ever.
>how hard they pushed Nintendo out of the core console market
And that's a good thing. Frick Nintendo, frick Mario and their 100 remakes of the same game.
True, but what if we had Nintendo consoles that weren't two generations behind in hardware specs in the last 2 decades? What if their current base wasn't comprised of people that don't really play games, people so disillusioned with the awful AAA landscape that they'll take any alternative they can get, or brain dead die hards that will eat up anything with the word Mario or Zelda in the title? Who knows what kind of creative or cutting edge games we might have seen? LttP, Mario 64, OoT would have never existed if Nintendo was sporting mobile tier hardware of the time.
The problem is that if nintendo had its way, there would still be NES consoles on the shelves with super "Mario brothers world 69" bundled to them.
You probably know all this, but other anons that are interested should google nintendos marketing campaigns against the 16bit consoles.
the troon64 WAS mobile tier hardware of the time.
I still smile when I think about how nintendo went to make a presentation to devs for their new console and told them that they're still using cartridges and that they're 64mb max at the time when ps1 used 600mb CDs.
You can stop blaming Nintendo for Microsoft and Playstation shitting the bed
My wiener.
Overwatch
League.
The precursor to league, which you should blame instead is the DotA mod from Warcraft 3. Warcraft 3 also leading to World of Warcraft. It's easily one of the most damaging games to the industry of all time, even the remaster is an affront to god.
Neither
Arguably the PS3/PS4. It let the market leader know that you can make even less games, charge for subs, and shill troony propaganda, and you'll still sell 120 million units effortlessly
PS3
Shitbox 360
Steam and mobile games damaged the whole industry more than any console. Sony just killed itself.
I like the first two playstation consoles. I like how weird some of their more obscure games can get and how fun their traditional games are. PS3 and PS4 are a bit boring by comparison
PS2 because it killed the Dreamcast and brought normalgays in with the inclusion of a DVD drive. I think the 360 probably did the most damage though.
pc.

In what way?
pc pushed graphicshomosexualry to an unsustainable level so nvidia can sell you a new $2000 GPU every year. if you're wondering why every game takes a decade to make now, blame crysis.
pc beggars on change.org are why every game now is a watered-down multiplat that needs to pander to the lowest common denominator.
the mmo genre was the trojan horse for paid online. the mann-conomy update gave us lootboxes. wing commander and half-life 2 were the original naughty dog movies. steam killing off physical games on pc (and pc lards passively accepting this) was the first step towards the dystopian future of gaming where you will own nothing.
> needs to pander to the lowest common denominator
It's was the case since the 80s because the only thing that matters is sales numbers not customer long term satisfaction.
consoles with fans in them are what killed the console industry, they just became inferior pcs
neither one they both spawned many classics
The Wii by bringing in normies and a whole gen devoted to waglan.
xbox
These are good consoles
2600
SNES
Colecovision
Vetrex
PS1
Nintendo DS
XBox 360
PS2
SNES
Gamecube
N64
Everything else is shit but especially everything that INSISTS on an internet connection. If it can't run without the internet, then it is no good on a console
>Colecovision
>Vetrex
O the 3ds was ok to. In the end the internet will kill consoles and turn them into dumb terminals on pay per minute
Everything Sega released between Genesis and Deamcast. Sony & Nintendo don't compete directly enough and XBox is a joke.
>Which one damaged the industry more?
Neither everytjing went to shit after the Xbox360 because muh doigital purchase online account subsciption whatever multiplayer you are banned
