Successor

[edit]

Shouldn't the Atari VCS (2021 console) be listed as its successor?

Generation dispute

[edit]

By what definition is the Jaguar a fifth-gen console? It never competed against the Playstation or N64 because Atari abandoned it before those consoles launched, and there was a period of only a few months at best when it might have competed against the Saturn. By contrast, its own advertising portrayed it as a competitor to the SNES, Genesis, and 3DO, and gaming magazines throughout 1993, 1994, and early 1995 reviewed SNES, Genesis, and 32x games alongside Jaguar games. Anyone who actually lived through that time period remembers the Jag as part of the fourth generation, albeit a latecomer to it. This article should not call the Jag a fifth-gen console without some kind of clarification, qualification, or disclaimer. 24.5.198.222 (talk) 00:21, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
