The list forgot about 3do, TG16, and the infamous SegaCD with it's 1min loading screens.
Also the NeoGeo, which was released in 1990 for $649.99.

no way. when the Atari Jaguars started selling for about $20, i really almost bought one. but the games were SO BAD. at least the virtual boy now makes an awesome mantelpiece.

For the most part I agree with that list and on a side note, yes the sega dreamcast was the most revolutionary console ever. Pirated movies, emulators and games started popping up everywhere on the net when that thing came out. The dreamcast pretty much llaid the foundation for all future systems.

The Dreamcast was amazing! I remember playing all my old favorites on the many different emulators that were available for use on the Dreamcast.
Quite possibly one of the most underrated systems to ever be released.

Well... I was a bit disappointed by that list.
A couple of those weren't even consoles but portables.
As far as the Sega Saturn? Crashed and burned? No way... I mean, it didn't do amazing but it's not like it was released, ignored and forgotten. Hell I had one and there were actually some great games for the Saturn.
All in all not a great list... I would have probably put the Atari Jaguar on the list somewhere. I had one, but I have never to this day met another person who did... if that's not crashing and burning I don't know what is.
I would also say the Phillips CD-I should be on that list.

Yeah, the SS by no means crashed and burned like the others, and a lot of their best games were never released in English.
