Have I decided? Have I boat. I'm still weighing up the pros and cons for a JAP Saturn and Radiant Silvergun. So far though, I haven't found many cons (although my wallet seems to be moaning a bit :/)
So, to help ignore my poor decision making process, I am (somewhat ashamedly) looking to buy a SNES. My first ever SNES. Never owned one, never played one.
"And you call yourself a gamer?!"
Yes, yes, I know. :( How many classics am I missing out on? Hundreds. At least. Issue 23 of UK Retro Gamer hasn't exactly helped, with a big fat section on why it's so great. I've only read it thirteen times so far, my top lip curling slightly more every time.
So, instead, in a mad fit of "I need a footy game on my 360 that was designed for it!", I bought FIFA World Cup 2006 on X360.
*sigh*
I am supplying a review to coincide with this purchase (and subsequent return). My Soul Calibur review as promised in my previous blog is almost finished; I just had to get this off my chest and out the way first before I sent it in.
And what will I be getting with my hard earned refunded £50? Hmm...methinks a SNES is in order.
Next stop: eBay.
Later.

And a JAP Saturn is probably a good idea because it plays at 60hz as opposed to the PAL console which runs at 50hz. Buying a stepdown convertor is more convenient that fitting a region switch, too.

I never owned anything by SEGA.
