I was used to SNES graphics and absolutely hated how n64 and especially ps1 games looked.

By Banjo-Kazooie they were nice enough, but the early transition was hard indeed. Still, you got 3D form N64 and prettiness from SNES.

Yeah, I felt the same way. The transition period was really painful and awkward but it paid off a console later!

I grew up in the age of Super Nintendos and fighting game arcades. This was back when video games HAD to be fun in order to sell.

had ANY clue what we were buying. Companies made an entire business out of shelling out shitty games knowing we'd unwittingly buy them.

That's bullshit and we all know it. Literally 80%+ of those games were garbage. No internet, very few review magazines, so none of us

Oh, I feel so fucking sorry for you. Seriously. You have no idea how wrong you are.

Watch Angry Videogame Nerd on YouTube, you'll see some of the shittiest games from the old systems. There were shitty companies then as well

I have every NES, Genesis, and SNES rom on my hard drive. I know that the vast majority of the games were cop-outs to shill easy money.

Same here. I'm blown away by the incredible amount of hard work and artistic talent that goes into making games.

It might be less about generation gaps and more to do with age/experience. We haven't had a chance to witness great changes yet.
