If they had had 3d chips back then they would have used them not 320x240 games with only 16 colours. Games started to be cool around the time the Xbox came around for me. I know mmf can't do 3d but you can at least enchant the gfx with photoshop.
I think this is a harsh statement against pixel art, if you think the only good graphics were when the Xbox came out then this community of majority pixel or vector pushing game makers doesn't seem to be your place.

kids these days have no respect.... they should also get off the lawn whilst they're at it!
well it's not like I am alowed to say what I think but if I have to pick a game it would probably be the donkey kong games as they dont look all pixelated and low color. Klikers should make games like that.

It's a good quality to aspire to, but not many clickers are capable of rendering quality 3D models into 2D sprites.
Me, in a way. The girlfriend has one but its missing a power adapter. I was going to buy one off Pineapple but he stalled, got romantic with it and is claiming he can't find it or any games so I'll stop asking.
I have the compact Jr. one. The second US one that looked like the Super Famicom. I think the European one already looked like that from the beginning though.
The first one we had was the original, but my brother made me give that to his friend because his friend's SNES' RF port was jiggly. :| I should have never let him bully me into giving it away... (This one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Super_Nintendo_Entertainment_System-USA.jpg ) Oh well, all is not lost because while the original was only partially mine, the second one was bought with my money, so it's 100% under my control. >:}
The Jr. is actually a pretty cool looking little machine.
I never owned one myself. I did have a Sega Master System 2... Still do in fact, I can see it from here.
However through the wonderful legal no-man's land that is the world of emulators, I have to say Secret of Mana is way up there. Co-op gameplay is always a good idea.
