yeah, I know he was. Point is that power does not always make the console. There have been a lot of 'powerhouse' consoles that divebombed due to bad architecture and no support. Turbografx 16, Sega Saturn, Atari Jaguar... And if you want to talk about raw raw power, then 3do and Neogeo should have been owned by everyone. But its not, and I don't consider either of them a 'better system' than any of their counterparts at the time (snes, genesis).

I guess I am just contesting his use of the word 'better' in his post. 'Faster' would be much more appropriate.
