And none of those games are as good as Duck Hunt, Excitebike, Dig Dug, Ice Climbers, or Super Mario Bros which were all released on NES in 1985
>>
>>320175559
One of the Commander Keen games, by the looks of it.
>>
>>320174098
to be fair some of the later PC games have blown the SNES the fuck out with their graphics
>>
I guess you could say the story of the differences between console and PC gaming is like the story of the tortoise and the hare. The hare stops to take a break, but the tortoise keep on trudging. The tortoise can also have rockets, machine guns, and the like attached to it easily.

The last SNES game released was in 2013 IIRC.

but PC looks like the average 2015 PC game, is this some sort of joke?
>>
>>320175245
And I thought Super Mario Bros. Special was shoddy.
>>
>>320174098
The Commander Keen series kicked fucking ass. SMW was fun, but lay off the apogee shit, it was classic.

what went so wrong?

PC didn't really start spearheading progress in gaming technology until maybe 8 or so years ago. Before that, consoles lead the way while PC lagged behind.

That's one of the big things that make me say that consoles are a relic that serve no benefit to anybody other than the console hardware developers. The days where the pushing of the boundaries happen on consoles are over. Nowadays, they're just subpar PCs. It'd be better for both consumers and game devs if they died out.

On a related note, these cheap "retro" indie platformers really need to end.

Yeah fucking right those amiga games btfo your nintendoshit. Stay delusional consolec.uck.

A better estimate is maybe 20 or so years ago.

Pixel graphics used to exist as a technical limitation. Now its a financial one. Outside of a few big name ones, most people use those sort of graphics because they're dirt poor.

>>320175245
So this is the power... of the PC.

Mario World released in 1991

No. Console games generally looked far better than PC games prior to the mid-2000s. All of the big leaps and bounds in graphics technology happened on consoles. Even the last gen was a great deal for the price when it first came out.

Find me a 2001 PC game that looks as nice as FFX.

>Pixel graphics used to exist as a technical limitation. Now its a magnet for artists who have no business being employed as such. Outside of a few big name ones, most people use those sort of graphics because they're lazy and lack any artistic skills, choosing pixel art because they believe that poor quality art suddenly becomes acceptable the minute that you throw out the word "retro".

>PC with a very basic graphics chip can perform a lot of the same fundamental graphical features as a system with a dedicated graphics chip
Consoles, are you even trying?
>>
>>320180398

1990 in Japan.
>>
>>320174098
If snes is so much better why hasn't they released a game in over 10 years?

More like SNES, are you even trying?
>>
>>320175742
And all of those games combined weren't as good as the golden era of PC gaming a few years later. Nice try.
>>
>>320181224

Are there any games released in the past 10 years specifically for the IBM clone PCs of the early 90s?

Actually asking, not baiting, maybe some crazy indie developer released some game on floppy that actually runs on a 286.

Weren't there fucking Dreamcast games released in the past couple years?

Anything could happen,

>>320182294
Last dreamcast game was released this fall, it was a SHUMP that was released in PS3, PS4 and dreamcast.

The truth about PC gaming is that it was shit until around 1995 then it was good for like 7 or 8 years then it was shit again and still is

PC fags will never accept this though
