Nobody claims that. Nintendo had the most popular home console in Scandinavia and the Netherlands. They were just too expensive for majority the rest of Europeans and lacked the brand recognition that Sega had. Neither were anywhere near as popular as home computers.

>PSX should be called PS1
You're arguing about a pointless thing. Whether you write "PSX", "PS1" or "PS", everyone understands perfectly well what you're talking about. Actually, "PS1" or "PSX" make it more apparent which specific console you're referring to. PS could also refer to Phantasy Star, for example.

You're just being annoyingly picky about one word. It would be cool if you had any wit or brains to actually form your thought in a sentence and point out why exactly that word annoys you. But instead everything coming out of you is "hurr durr kids today", and it's rather pathetic to read.

Of course they are. Death in a game should cause instant reset, save deletion and preferably death of the player. That would weed out the casual crowd.

Americans don't have to say 'Genesis'. Sega only had to because of a trademark issue. Americans, in general, have can just say Mega Drive without legal repercussions. There's no reason for you to say 'Genesis' rather than Mega Drive.

Retro is a buzzword, pre-y2k gaming will ALWAYS remain in its own time period. Classical doesn't become Baroque just because a certain amount of time has passed.

I didn't care about Zelda until it went 3D. I got Zelda 1 in Animal Crossing and played it for the first time there. No internet connection at the time, so not even the map or manual.

I got through the game by exploring and listening to the old men and women that always gave a hint about the next dungeon.

You'd only need a guide if you want all the hearts.
