I did a write up on my blog a while back about a retro gamers video game console so i figured i would posts something like that here.

- 16bit+ SNES, New Super Mario Bros, Bionic Commando remake styles graphics.
- More old school feeling games like side scroll 2D platformers, top down shooters, 2D Fighters, gameplay over graphics no real 3D to speak of.
- Online support with voice chat. No friend code BS.
- Open development downloadable games (like XNA/WiiWare mix)
- DVD based system no cart problems long term.
- Lots of games released as collectible packs with extras for a bigger price but most games $20 new.

In my blog post i mention sega/capcom making it since they have a massive IP catalog and new 2D sonic games could sell the system alone. Plus microscopic hardware building costs mean they could fight with the Wii pretty easily even with the niche market of the console and it woud not be hard to turn a profit.

Sega/Capcom making it? It would be like the second coming of the Dreamcast since that was so packed with Capcom games anyway. I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Some of the most classic RPGs of all time came out for the SNES which is what this idea was based around.

Most likely I've been craving more of that nostalgic feel that I experienced from my child hood, so this would be very welcoming.
IF ONLY!
I'm not big on the wii, I have great fun with it with buddies, but as a stand alone..well, lets just say I can count on both hands how many times I've played it, and it's currently back in it's box. :(
