Is there any retro consoles that you never lived up to their potential? where the games fell short of the hardware?.

Personally I feel that the NDS was under-utilized, as it was a fully 3d capable console, that was used mostly for 2d pixel art games, and platformers. When it was able to support full 3d platformers and even a fan remake of portal.

    GoldenEye has the dual controller schemes too. A bit awkward in that you still have to be able to access the A & B buttons from the center grip; “2.1 Plenty” and switch the camera control off of inverted, personally. Hold the right controller at a slight angle to reach A & B and it’s not horrible… 😅

    Can you tell my family’s been getting back into N64 lately? Some are experiencing the turn-of-the-century gaming for the first time. Although I’m spoiled from playing the recompiled Perfect Dark on Steam Deck and having total “control of the controls” including gyro aim.
