    Which system has aged better?

    Taking the N64, Playstation and Saturn, at the time the original Playstation was the outright winner of this era.

    However, which do you think has actually aged the best when played today? And why?

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    I had no contact ever with N64 or Sega Saturn. But i think PSx is the one that aged better, just from what i read, not from a personal experience.

    Same here like Tiago, and I have to admit that I never really liked the N64, it's still like now with the Wii, Nintendo and their attitude, making games for a large audience, in my opinion mainly for kids, I never liked that.

    Saturn was a flop anyway.

    Well, I believe PlayStation. You can compare the titles, accessories, everything. Even after the launch of PS2, games were produced for the "aged" PlayStation too.

    PSX aged better due to backwards compatibility on the PS2/PS3 and retro PSN offerings. Game catalog is very impressive, it covered all age ranges and many exclusive titles until Microsoft jumped into the console business to battle the PS2. Too bad there will never be PS2 emulation on the PS3 Slim, I'd love to replay Ace Combat from the original PSX versions to PS2 versions on a single system.

    Sega Saturn was a flop due to Sega trying to co-market the slimmed down 16-bit/32X cartridge Genesis+CD system, they never learned from that mistake once the Dreamcast came out... again they tried to keep the Saturn afloat and this time the company bailed out of the hardware console market completely.

    I'd admit I kept playing my PSX(1995 revision B) until I bought a PS2 Slim in 2004. As far as Nintendo, never been interested beyond the SNES.
