Console Launch Titles/Dates/Prices And Other Info

[Izret101]

I concur.
Homebrews are in a category all their own.

[Tynstar]

I thought the Sega Genesis only came with 1 controller...

not the original version with the pack in game of Altered Beast.

I'm still trying to determine if this should be considered a home brew title or not. The only info I can get on how to purchase it, is to order it directly from their site. If it is seen on a store shelf, I'll list it.


...  and thanks for the corrections, they will be fixed after this post.

On the 32X Launch I've heard there were NO titles available for the console until after a over week of it sitting on the shelf. I don't know if it was like this nationwide or not, so I still don't know anything for sure.

The more I think about it, I think you're right.  I bought a 32X on launch day and remember taking it home with no games and I thought the 32X was gonna make Genesis game graphics better...lol (I was like 13 and hadn't read up on it much.)  I do remember going back to the store a short time later and contemplating wether to get DOOM or Virtua Racing.  I didn't even know what DOOM was back then...  But I think you're right and no games were available for atleast a few days after the 32X launch.

I didn't want to see this thread get too lost.
I know I haven't updated this list in a while, but I actually had some spare time to goof off, so I decided to add a few more consoles n' such.

The PS2 came out Oct. 26, 2000 not 04.

Heh, thanks. That was a typo from my lazy c/p job. Fixed.

Much needed **bump**

I also added the number of games released for the consoles, as if I needed something else to have to research.
