Yeah, the Saturn had some awesome games, but it didn't gain a lot of traction with developers and the public. Granted the architecture was kind of convoluted and not ideal for the time as it tended to be better suited to 2D than 3D from what I've heard. That wasn't a good specialty to have in the mid 90's.
Blind SNES fanboyism annoys me quite a bit. I mean Brentalfloss I love his songs, but he would never do a song from a Sega game. He even made a Nintendo love theme and said in the song that " Sega just didn't complete for my feelings for Nintendo " ( tosses away a copy of Sonic 3 )
Most reviews of retro games usually favour for the SNES and if the game is on both consoles the SNES version most likely always wins. I don't hate the SNES, it has good games. Though I believe that some youtube reviewers just blindly follow the SNES and Nintendo like they're still in the 1990's, like Sega is still the enemy and rival and should be hated. The console bit war was over almost 20 years ago. Sega should be getting some love and people, most likely Youtube reviewers like Angry Video Game Nerd for a example should stop kissing Nintendo's feet. It's almost like a cult and Mario is God.
I do like the SNES but the blind fanboyism is just stupid.
The GameCube was Nintendo's finest hour.

Changed slightly. It might be true, the GameCube was phenomenal, but trying to compare it to the DS is not something I'm willing to do.

From the looks of things, I'm going to have to state the actual unpopular opinion about the Gamecube, at least around here: The Gamecube is the weakest Nintendo console by far.
That was a really awesome post that could be a thread in itself. The flames of the PS3 360 war have largely been extinguished, yet a lot of the fury from the 16-bit epoch still rages, at least passive-aggressively, today. Sega had such an incredible vibe going with the music and the artwork of a lot of the first party games, but I can understand how the opposition gets enthralled by that "Nintendo magic" that you can still see in a lot of their games even today. So while a lot of us have since gone back to check out Chrono Trigger and FFVI, a lot of the Nintendo retro crowd have to wonder why the smurf they would ever want to play Shining Force or Phantasy Star.

You know, I had just seen the Wii U thread and remembered that I completely forgot about the Wii. Must have blocked it out. So I'll amend my statement: the Gamecube is the worst Nintendo console that didn't pander to casual gamers to print money.
Majora's Mask is the best Zelda game. Ever.
Agree.
I've tried the Phantasy Star on a Sega collection set for the PSP and ... I just can't get into it... I have no idea if that is a unpopular opinion or not, but compared to the SNES's Final Fantasy games, they just don't compare thanks to SquareSoft. Also I don't get why it's called Phantasy Star ? What in the flying fudge is a Phantasy ? It sounds like your trying to say Fantasy, but you have a lisp.
I do have to think that the SNES was the better console over all [ even though the Sega has my favourite game in the world Strider ], but damn some people even today worship it like crazy.
Also Sega was rude smurftards with their advertising towards Nintendo.

Why did I miss this? Oh, because it's Bunny who posted it. My comment may be many things but ignorant, not entirely.I think the title said unpopular, not completely ignorant.
The three people who replied to this are Bunny, MILF, Pike.
And then my comment:
I rest my case.and only people who seriously lack a life play it.
Practically all FPS games (CoD, Battlefield etc.) are just repetitive, uncreative cash cows.
Pokemon XD is the best Pokemon game.
Pokemon Platinum is the best handheld Pokemon game, even if it did have too many Pokemon.
