CR,
Re -- Nintendo...

Please don't encourage JoeBob Halda with the notion that Mxi is not for game machines.

He is trying to find some hope that the Mxi is useful for something, when it really isn't.

cl,

The PSX and N64 will always have a hardware advantage over the PC. You only need a TV and not much in the way of a speedy HD or lots of DRAM, a fast 3D card, and a speed uP.

MXi will have in 2D and 3D and RAMDAC. I don't think it would work with NTSC, but it should work ok with upcoming DTV sets. HD is going to be a problem, since to take advantage of existing software, you need Windows 95/98, HD and enough RAM. At least 16 MB.

Just the guy I was looking for,
How does Quake 64 on Nintendo compare with Quake on a PC?
Forget the TV thing. When HDTV gets here it won't matter.
