I usually try to emphasize that gameplay is more important that graphical quality. Each machine has had its strengths and weaknesses, and as a programmer, I’m amazed by some of the ways developers have harnessed the power of consoles and pushed them to their limits resulting is some marvelous games. Over the years, I have been fascinated by the history of the various machines that have battled for our living rooms. In case you haven’t followed Racketboy very long, the Pushed The Limits series (see our NES, TG16, and Genesis installments) takes a look at the games that truly made the most of a console’s hardware.
