  • 16 bit my ass i does not look like 16 bit to me

  • @bellyboy41 Yeah and you like most people seem to think that the register width of the main CPU has anything at all to do with the graphics. But it doesn't. You know the original XBOX was only 32-bit. Did it look worse than the N64 witch was 64-bit? No. It looked better. I can find you many examples of this. So forget bit this and bit that. It has nothing to do with the graphics. That's just the way we where tricked into thinking from advertisments during the 8-16 bit era.

  • Where is the music at the beginning of the video from, I know it but just doesn't pop in my head.

  • @xTruLyXaNxIcoNx Sega CD model 1 boot up music.

  • no it was a 8-bit processor and a 16 bit graphics engine. It was a hybrid system. So I made a mistake it's like this.

    The first to include to 16-bit Power is the Intellivision

    The first to include 16-bit Graphics was the TG-16

    The first complete 16-bit system is the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis.

    The TG-16 did not include 16-bit processors which was my fault from before.

  • rofl yes, it can get confusing.

    The first to include 16-bit power is the Intellivision.

    The first to include 16-bit power and graphics is the TurboGrafx 16/PC-Engine.

    The first complete 16-bit console i think is the Sega Mega-Drive/Genesis.

    I don't know thats ROUGHLY what i know.

    I hope that helped dude.

see all

  • @MN12BIRD No,No It's Model 2

  • first game downloads..insane!

    i have one and its really cool

  • As said before, bit-ness doesn't matter. But, the Inty CPU was a CP1610, which IS a 16bit CPU but it had a 10-bit data bus. It ran at 894.886 kHz, so LESS than 1Mhz. However, none of that matters.. The games looked better (at the time) in general than the 2600 games. I couldn't say anything about it at the time one way or the other, as we only had an Odyssey 2. :-) Good review..

  • Great review for a great system. :-)
