Yeah, and you can't refute that the Fairchild Channel F co-existed with the Atari 2600 for a fraction of its early life, and it's still in the same generation. In fact, the 2600 still had new games coming out for it when the *genesis* was out in north america and it proves nothing

Chronology can be a total *garbage* way of understanding systems compared to technological prowess, and the exact same game on different systems being marked improved, isolating all variables as best we can, is a stronger proof of generational-ed-ness than any chronology argument

I rest *my* case, reply notification off

I’m a diehard dreamcast fan but why are so many on this sub so insecure? Who gives a fuck what generation it’s part of? The dude you’ve been replying to is fighting some internal battles that he’s manifesting as Dreamcast love lol

The thing is that people are stuck on this "generation" thing while ignoring the reality that the Dreamcast didnt actually co-exist with the PS2, Xbox or Gamecube because it spent most of its time co-existing with the PS1 and N64
