I'm not responsible for the groupings, I copied that straight out of the issue.

But I see 6 rehashes involving original NES characters, and I'm no expert on the subject, but at least 8 titles that were either exact copies, or introduced from characters from another system's titles. Which leaves a possible 11 original titles. (could be less, I don't claim to be an expert on which games were out on which systems, as I would never have looked for "Super Monkey Ball").

thats from the other thread. dunno why you made a new one for this b/c the PS2 and Xbox (and PS3 and 360) are all just as guilty as the GCN for having games that are either sequels to older games or are cross platform.

Yeah, but they also have a crap load of other great games that are original. Seriously.

I posted the list because I said I would in response to Sonic R saying he couldn't list 25 games.

And I didn't put it in that thread because that's not what that thread's about, something YOU seem to keep ignoring. The whole point of that thread was to ask about the future of PS3, but we've got you defending the Wii and Gamecube, and Mrofir defending the XBox. It's gotten ridiculously off topic.

you cant discuss the life on one system without talking about the others.

besides, threads evolve all the time.

BTW, I bested the 25 exclusive games no sweat.

Uh yeah, but you can do it without turning it into a contest.

There's already an XBox vs. PS3 thread, there's a gamecube thread, etc. etc. etc. Nice justification for trying to make it about your own agenda.

I'm happy for you. Do you feel better now?
