Cool, but one thing I noticed: On the BEST SELLING VIDEO GAMES list of 20 games, it says 18 of the top 20, but the only non-nintendo game on that list is GTA. QUESTION MARK?

[Beware of Cuccos]

I saw that too. It was probably just a typo or something.

[BumblebeeCody]

Pretty cool pretty cool.
Never realised Pokemon Diamond and Pearl did that well. Love that game

And this is why people who say Nintendo is terrible are idiots.

Nintendo DS has now become the best selling video game console of all time, beating the playstation.

To be fair, Microsoft have only made 2 consoles and started with Generation 6 and we're now on Generation 8(WiiU). Nintendo did have a 15 year head start...

[Zaliphone]

Yeah...
SUCK IT SEGA!!

[retrolinkx]

You know Sega have gone out of business since like the 6th gen, and they're even partnered with Nintendo and other companies.

I like how you didn't say Sony and wanted to go for an alternative.

[Zaliphone]

Uhh, fine.
SUCK IT SONY!

And Atari...

As a Sega kid, i am obligated to defend Sega with every will of my being.

Sega dominated Nintendo for a time because Nintendo failed in a few area's with the NES.

First, their 3rd-party support sucked, Sega had a superior 3rd-party support which appealed to a large number of developers. This was in part due to the 10NES lockout chip, they were made in limited supplies which meant that developers were limited on how many copies they could release, Sega didn't have this, so dev's could make more money off of Sega.

And of course, the graphics were innovative for their time, people were impatient to buy the next Nintendo console, so some people got the Genesis instead for its graphical capabilities, basically SEGA sold the Genesis at an excellent time.

Then of course there was Sonic...

I also think John Madden was in their somewhere, not to mention Moonwalker. The fact that these games had Celebrities in them was a great marketing strategy while they were popular.

[SERIOUSLY THOUGH]

As someone who doesn't care much for what my console is called so long as it provides me with fun, I am obligated to say nothing whatsoever because I'm too busy enjoying myself.

I wasn't saying Sega is terrible, I was just telling them to suck it for the sake of my love for Nintendo. I have very few things against Sega, if anything, and I'll always love my good old Sega Genesis.

You should never hate Sega, it's not right to hate them after what they've done. There only crime was innovating too much. Colour TV on a Handheld, The ability to play mega drive games on the go, and just look at the Dreamcast and it's peripherals, they have things current consoles don't even have.

Although, in my opinion. Sega are geniuses being run by idiots.

If they didn't think that the Genesis couldn't compete with the SNES, they could've stopped adding the 32X and Sega CD and instead thought more about the Saturn, released it 1995 or so, and then thought about the Dreamcast during this time as well.

Seriously, they were just being run by idiots who couldn't into business, and from there they failed. They would still be here today if they just stopped acting so stupid back in the 90's.

I still loved how Sega just insulted Nintendo in their adverts and such, even going as far with the Nintendon't slogan. You wouldn't see that today, mostly because I assume they would sue each other.
