Something about the system was just so elegant. The no screwing around controller design. The easy to store CDs. The better 3D graphics, at the time. http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/StephenNorquist/20130402/189741/Catching_Up_Part_4_Playstation_PS1.php Tue, 02 Apr 2013 08:57:00 EDT http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/StephenNorquist/20130401/189670/Catching_Up_Part_3_Nintendo_64.php Design,Serious Analysis: Pure Pwnage. The first console I heard about that was going full THREE DEE. I'm sure the first Playstation was already out, but it wasn't quite as kid friendly. http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/StephenNorquist/20130401/189670/Catching_Up_Part_3_Nintendo_64.php Mon, 01 Apr 2013 10:46:00 EDT http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/StephenNorquist/20130331/189628/Catching_Up_Part_2_The_Sega_Genesis_Mega_Drive__Saturn.php Design,Serious Analysis: Bad ass. Too bad I was still too young to really appreciate the pure complexity and awesomeness of these two systems.... I mean, they were black. I used them pretty soon one after the other, so in memory they blur together. http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/StephenNorquist/20130331/189628/Catching_Up_Part_2_The_Sega_Genesis_Mega_Drive__Saturn.php Sun, 31 Mar 2013 08:37:00 EDT http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/StephenNorquist/20130330/189605/Catching_Up_Part_1_The_Super_Nintendo_Entertainment_System_SNES.php Design,Serious Analysis: Mediocre. It was probably the most popular system Nintendo has ever put out there, second only to the 64. I don't know, but the games were good. I'm sure I didn't get nearly enough of them since I never played Earthbound or anything. http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/StephenNorquist/20130330/189605/Catching_Up_Part_1_The_Super_Nintendo_Entertainment_System_SNES.php Sat, 30 Mar 2013 03:09:00 EDT http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/StephenNorquist/20130329/189596/Introduction_to_the_Super_Genius_Game_Designer_Steve.php Serious,Design Allow myself to introduce me.
