No…in the old days it made each console feel different. There might be SOME overlap between the SNES and the Genesis, but for the most part they’re entirely different libraries.
But if you’re trying to have console wars on any generation since the PS3, then it’s just stupid. It’s like 90% shared libraries, so the few exclusives don’t mean shit. There’s no personality to the consoles anymore.
Except Nintendo. Nintendo does weird things on their own path.
“Steam 2024: You played the same one game on an unsupported OS, on an no longer supported client…but just that one game for like 800 hours. We’re worried about you. Are you ok?”
Civ…7 is coming out??? Oh! Oh! So I guess I’m just going to need a time machine??? Is that it??? Because I’m an adult now!!! Working 6 damn days a week!!! Explain how I can just stop time, and spend 72 hours straight fighting off Gondi and his aggressive ass nukes!!! Explain that shit to me!!! Already work 16 hours a day 6 days a week! Now I gotta defend the world from nukes through politics, and science, and WE ALREADY KNOW WE’RE ALREADY GOING TO BUILD AN ARMY AND BLOW EVERYONE UP!!! WHY WE GOTTA DANCE THIS DANCE???
