Sega CD Ad from 1993 - Angry Black Guy

An old Sega CD commercial with an angry black guy extolling the virtues of Sega CD and asking important questions such as "You still don't have a Sega CD!? What are you waitin' for? Nintendo to make one?"

[@Gasosag]

Nintendo did try to make one with Sony, but in doing so they unwittingly created their ultimate rival: the PlayStation.

[@nexus3756]

+SuperNova 64 it WAS their rival... and it won. big time.

[@imaloony8]

Eh, I don't know about that. While Sony and Nintendo are definitely competitors, I see XBox and Playstation more as the Rivals. Nintendo has a somewhat different target audience, whereas Microsoft and Sony are primarily fighting over the same people.

[@edism]

No, he is correct. The PlayStation killed the N64 and both Sega's Saturn and Dreamcast which followed. When Microsoft arrived the PlayStation was the only competitor left.

[@imaloony8]

The Playstation most definitely did not kill the N64. Don't get me wrong, Playstation won that generation by a mile, but the N64 still had a very respectable 32 Million sales (which is still more than the fucking XBone has been able to sell). Also keep in mind that while Sony has been beating Nintendo pretty consistently in HOME console sales (with the exception of last gen when the Wii just exploded), Nintendo has been dogshitting all over Sony in the handheld market. To put it in perspective, of the top 5 best selling handheld consoles, Nintendo has four of them. Including the number 1 and 2 spots.

[@edism]

_"Playstation won that generation by a mile"_ That's what I'm described as _"killing it"_ as based on my impression of what happened at the time, in the UK market at least, the effect Nintendo's choice of ROM over CDROM had on the games that were released for it (and the success of them as a consequence) comparatively and also regarding sales worldwide as you mentioned. The Xbox wasn't a competitor to the N64 since it came out five years later!

[@landerthomas1480]

I miss the 90s, things were so simplier way back when.

[@Nicksolo85]

Video games were a lot better in those days. As of 2012, I have been building up my collection with video games from the 90s & yes some games I buy for more than 1 console. Examples: Every Mortal Kombat game from Mortal Kombat 1 to Mortal Kombat 4 I have at least 2 versions/ports of. I get asked "Why are you buying games you already have on another console?" I do it because... A: A lot of them I can buy used for cheap B: The graphics & sounds were a lot different across the various versions/ports of games released to 2+ consoles. This was big especially with games released to both Super Nintendo & Sega Genesis. If you can, check them out.

[@Jacno77]

Nicksolo85 games weren't better those days, for every classic snes game there were 100 shitty games, you were trapped with limited memory, making clostphobic graphics. today we're very lucky to have improved techology

[@AdhamOhm]

"Still don't have a Sega CD? You waiting for Nintendo to make one?" Which is funny because around this time, Nintendo was collaborating with Sony to make a CD add-on for the SNES. Then the two companies had a falling out and Sony struck out on their own, using the partially developed SNES add-on to make a whole new console. The Playstation. The rest is history.

[@generalrubbish9513]

The funny thing is, Nintendo "dumped" Sony because they were afraid they'd try to enter the video game market. Which is exactly what they did after the separation. They caused the very thing they were trying to prevent. Also, they made another contract for a CD add-on, this time with Philips. The same thing happened - the contract was cancelled, Philips turned the add-on into a stand-alone system and the horrendous abomination known as "Philips CD-I" was born. And as a cherry on top of the shit cake, they somehow got to keep their licenses for certain Nintendo characters, resulting in three Zelda games and one Mario game for the CD-I. but we don't talk about those. So, that was a spectacular double failure for Nintendo.

[@brodysdaddy]

Sega CD was a pioneer of sorts. Not just by popularizing discs over carts, but by being more than just a video game console. The Sega CD was my first cd player, which was kewl at the time. Also this was the first console I remember that did something when you turned it on without having a game in it. These are both traits that all the current gen consoles have; except now instead of cds it's dvds or blu-rays, and instead of a kewl Sega CD screen its a dashborad or XMB.

[@Ninjamohawk]

Kewl

[@castironbandito]

They should have shown us gameplay of Batman Returns as that game showed off what the SEGA CD could do. It had sprite scaling and changes of elevation. It was the game to get for the SEGA CD and gave you a reason to show it off to your friends. Sadly, not that many game devs took full advantage of the SEGA CD's sprite scaling abilities. It was focused mainly on full-motion video.

Nintendo did have a joint-venture project going with Sony to design a CD unit add-on for the SNES, but ultimately Nintendo backed out. Sony took matters into their own hands and created a little niche-market item called the PlayStation- you may have heard of it. Oh yeah, that's right, Sony wiped the fucking floor with Nintendo, two generations in a row, with the PS1 slashing the N64's throat, and the PS2 sending a bullet through the brain of the GameCube.

[@generalrubbish9513]

Nintendo did the same with Phillips, but instead of another competitor, it resulted in something much, much worse - the Phillips CD-I. Before that, however, Nintendo gave Phillips the license to use Mario Bros and Zelda characters. Cut to Phillips creating four games so terribly vile that even now, the thought of them keeps gamers awake at night.

[@jumpmon3563]

mori1993 Actually after Nintendo rejected Sony, they went to Sega afterwards. But in the end, they also rejected Sony, thus the Playstation was born. Oh and Nintendo also wiped the floor with Sony, with both the Wii, DS, and 3DS. Yeah, there was the PS4, but nowadays, Sony is more in competition with Microsoft than they are with Nintendo. Also, I wouldn't say that the PS1 killed the N64, I mean it sold 32 million, which was okay, but it did kill the Saturn.

It was actually in Sega's best interest for Nintendo to make a CD unit. If Nintendo had gone through with their Sony-produced CD peripheral, we wouldn't have the Playstation and maybe Sega would still be in business as a console developer. Or hell, maybe Sega could have tried not fucking up consumer goodwill by not trying so hard to extend the Genesis' life and just straight up released the Saturn. That way consumers who blew 200 bucks on that POS 32x and SegaCD wouldn't have felt ripped off when the new console came out SIX MONTHS LATER then MAYBE the Saturn would have sold which would have driven up the Dreamcast's numbers. It's a genuine pity, because the Dreamcast is still fucking awesome.
