Default Atari Vs. nintendo

Excluding sales in your opinion. Which do you think was better? I have one thing to say:

Atari had Mind reading and wireless controlers. Fuck yourself Nintendo.


Adventure FTW!

Nintendo is the correct answer.

Atari's quality was too inconsisent, and it was probably the only console generation where usually the 3rd party company (in most cases, Activision) made a better product than Atari's in-house developers

The 2600 is what got me hooked on gaming, but the NES was far superior.

Atari is the only company that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between.

Nintendo wasn't ever superior. The only thing nintendo had that was superior is 2 more colors.

Apparently sarcasm only works the other way. Oh BTW. nintendo was inferior. Atari had everything from mindreading(Not ACTUAL) Wireless controllers and the longest lasting game system. The Nintendo had a directional pad thing with a few acessories and blah blah. obviously the 2600 was better than the NES. The Atari machine was the best. Nintendo had slightly better looking games. they both still looked like pixelated blocks.

Also Rbb you may want to realize you're and idiot.

I don't recall it being in the rules, but rules were made to be changed. Name calling is against the rules though, so you should be expecting your ban in the mail within 6-8 weeks.
