Why did Sega claim this? It couldn’t do parallax scrolling, it couldn’t do basic 3D.

I could do parallax scrolling without cartridge mappers.

The Sega Master System could do parallax scrolling without cartridge mappers.

That’s incorrect, NES didn’t require them

If you want to be autistically literal then technically any game would be possible if you built it as a convoluted enough addon like 32X for the Genesis except also have the game built into the addon like Sonic & Knuckles.

So theoretically, the master system as is could run crysis on a cartridge

Yes. You could make a cartridge the size of a football stadium if you really wanted to.

>> No.8059986

>>8059960
Why. You dont need a pc the size of a football stadium to run crysis

Would the cart need it’s own power supply?

the snes also couldn't do parallaxscrolling all it did was draw the full area and show a smaller part (just check the lion king games on both)
The only console that could do parallax scrolling was the PC engine but that was more powerfull then contenders.

California Games also had some parallax in the BMX, roller skating and frisbee.

A better example would be the Genesis. You can pull a whole lot of volts over the cart port. You could easily run a raspberry pi 4 over the cart slot with a proper adapter. I would then bet with the right code, simple code too, you could run crysis over the pi 4...... horribly but it would work. If you allow an external psu you could run any game ever. The cart ports were far more input that many understand, and no not just for things like DSP, SVP, FX2, or similar addon chips.

It did just about everything for mid 80s expectations for home consoles, not many people cared about parallax scrolling until later, and back then you could get away with calling anything 3D. Mother fucking King's quest claimed to be 3D.

At that point you might as well just do that reverse emulation trick the guy did with SNES > NES and just spit the pixels right onto the VDP or whatever the SMS called it.

Because complaining about "no limits" not being true when you take a marketing ad too literally deserves a response that proves you wrong by taking things even more literally you autistic faggot.
