Whats The Worst Game Console Ever

I would have to say the Sega Dreamcast not because its performance but because it quit making titles around the time it just came out. The ps2 took all its competition and it never really went anywhere. The Sega Satern seemed to at least be around a while before the first playstation put them out of the console race.

thanks for the response [elmiko]


I do not know the worse, but I can see Playstation and Nintendo are quite good and have been around for a while. Besides my sons used to own them, and I have seen the games come and go. Unfortunately I have never seen much offered by Sega Dreamcast or the other Sega but I am not a game player. I have to go by the evidence of who I watch and none of my son's friends bought a Sega over when they were coming to stay overnight so that tells you plenty. [suspenseful]
sega doesn't sell consoles now but still make video games [elmiko]



I would have to agree. It just never seemed to go anywhere. [Thoroughrob]
it had the ability. i really don't think game makers even considered them. [elmiko]


dreamcast isn't the worst console but was one of the less popular console but technically it was better than the PS1 in its time. what it lacked was titles and awareness...ii had played that console over my friend's place and i really loved the games and the graphic that it could offer. but it really couldn't rise above the giants in the market. and as for the worst console... mm.. i don't really know which one is the worst [060157]
I also own a dreamcast and played it for a while but the lack of games is why i thought it was worst ever even though it played very well [elmiko]



I'd have to say so far the wii is the worst console simply because I feel like they took a great idea and ruined it with crappy controls and titles that where less than expected. [sirmasterdeck]
i've never played a wii although i would like but it sold really well and theres people that really like the controls it has. i here it lacks the graphic quaility the 360 and the ps3 have but it sold cheaper and probably why it sold so well. [elmiko]


N64, Gamecube - I hate Nintendo. Dreamcast was wonderful. [ArsonCuff]
thanks for the response [elmiko]


I don't know about ever, but right now I think the WII kind of stinks. My son seems to be able to beat all the games in a day. When I lay out $50.00 for a game I expect him to play the stinking game for at least a couple of weeks. He always comes up the stiars and said he finished the game and it is boring, and will likely never play it again. What a waste of money. He always got a lot of use ou of his X-Box games. We are not saving for a 360 [ladym33]
nintendo targeted towards younger audiences. i guess thats why the games are easier. 360 and ps3 is more for older gamers. [elmiko]


Hello elmiko, I don't know if there were any worst console ever because technology has come along way. Of course the older models are lame compared to the new ones. I still own a NES and a Nintendo 64. Happy myLotting1 [caskins]
i had some fun times with the nes as it was the first console i ever had. it was good for the time. i still got my nes. i owned the dreamcast and really enjoyed the graphics which were impressive when i play resident evil code veronika. i wish i would have got my moneys worth with the dreamcast though. its like almost all the game makers gave up on the dreamcast. [elmiko]


Ouch man, I had a DC and I played Q3A and Spawn:ITDH with my dreamcast, it did have some innovative games. The problem was that Sega's marketers or advertisers were holding back that's why advertising games from them were kinda sloppy IMO. [Tonton01]
oh yeah i remember the virtuaboy. i played that at an in store display. i liked the red 3d color when playing it for that 1 time. although i didn't buy it you would have a hard time just finding somebody to give a compliment like i just did,lol. basicly when i looked at the preview of the virtuaboy in a magazine it sucked but when i was in a store i decided to give it a try and it was actually better than what i thought. i still had no intrest in getting it though. [elmiko]


I dont remember all the details, but I read an article last week about the Dreamcast making a comback soon. I never played it when it came out maybe I'll give it a shot now. [sweetcake1369]
i guess its a updated version if it happens. there last 2 consoles didn't last long. segas been out of the console picture so long that it would very difficult to attract people plus the 2 console flops that would not help their reputation. the other one was the sega satern which if i remember correctly lasted a little longer before the ps1 or n64 put them out of business.
