Ps3 was brand new tech and only Sony set the Blu-ray standard so it wasn't a fuck up it was experiencing with new hardware

Vetusomaru:
even with late PS2 games that pushed the console to its limit, they struggled really hard to run on PS2. which is why they had frame rate issues.

even Cave shmup werent released on PS2 because of its shitty hardware. and some of the ones that got released on PS2 had shitty port.

A @ anotherthing:If you have a ROM file that's calling to hardware that's part of the cartridge itself, that makes it tricky for an emulator since it has to do the console and any additional thing that the developer shoved in the cartridge too. Luckily a lot of that was standard.

@K3Nv2, Sony wanted to compete with HD-DVD and the Xbox 360, so they made the price of the console less than what it was advertised for. And because consumer players were expensive, some people bought one just so they can watch their movies... just like the PS2 as a cheap DVD player (well, depends on how you look at it for the price).

@anotherthing, And some Game Boy games that had extra SGB features, one example is Space Invaders with a modified version of Space Invaders for the SNES.+1

A @ anotherthing:Kind of lame that the very last console that is likely to ever have a cartridge slot that can add hardware to the system is the DS Lite due to the Slot 2.+1

Drives were made by Toshiba and in order to use it you had to install an update to have the ability to play HD-DVD discs. You can, however, use it on a PC as long as you install some UDF drivers.

A @ anotherthing:@SylverReZ I thought it was interesting that there's a thread about adding bluetooth to the NintendoDS and no one has mentioned the Slot 2 thing, especially since I'm pretty sure that's exactly what Pokemon Typing does.

SylverReZ:
@anotherthing, Nobody seemed to mention that there was a DS flashcart with Bluetooth capabilities. It has connectors to hook up separate devices. https://games.ucla.edu/game/ds-bluetooth+1

A @ anotherthing:@SylverReZ Okay, now that's cool. I didn't know the DS cartridge slot could do that, but I should have considering the DSTwo exists.+1

@K3Nv2, There's nothing big about new consoles, it's all about making profit from something you had from over a decade ago that is now 10x times worst.
