Dreamcast might be a contender.

Actually I think I might have to give it to Dreamcast because that includes people who'll argue Sonic Adventure wasn't a dumpster fire.

Iv'e not interacted with snes fanboys much but I can see how they'd be unbearable in extremes.

Its mostly on the Super Nintendo & Classic Gaming board where theyre really unbearable on here. The bad ones are obviously a minority, but they exist & theyre worse than modern console fanboys when it comes to console wars.

It can't be the Dreamcast because the Sega Saturn, Sega CD, and Sega 32X all exist.

SNES fans and it's no contest at all. Just look how they react when you say Super Mario RPG and Link to the Past were bad.

Which of those three consoles have annoying fanboys? Im pretty sure thats what this whole topic is about.

Also, I will forever stand by my opinion that the Sega CD & Saturn were underrated consoles (32X was a piece of shit though).

The N64 is super unplayable today. I can't think of more than 5 of its games that don't feel extremely dated today.

Does the Sega 32X even have fans? There's only like 14 people alive today who even knows it exists and 1 of them already said it sucks.

The Saturn, if only because so few people owned it that the buyer's regret has hit catastrophic levels of fanboyism.

American Saturn owners definitely got screwed by the lack of localizations, poor marketing & a "surprise launch", and the $400 launch price in 1995 was outrageous, but the fact remains that the Saturn has a ton of merit beyond "buyer's regret", especially if you're an importer.
-The system blew its competition out of the water in terms of 2D gaming, given its superior capabilities in that regard.
-The Saturn's shoot 'em up library was absolutely insane, and widely regarded as the best of any console to date.
-A lot of its most popular titles were super innovative/one-of-a-kind, such as Panzer Dragoon Saga (rail-shooter RPG), Dragon Force (real-time SRPG), Guardian Heroes (beat 'em up RPG), NiGHTS Into Dreams... (not even sure how I'd categorize it).

I wish I had more experience with the console myself, but the library is very expensive.

It was a time before controls for 3d games were really hammered down. So, SO many n64 games are hampered by camera controls that are laughably terrible by today's standards because how to do it properly hadn't really been figured out. You play Super Nintendo by comparison and games like Super Mario World and Donkey Kong Country feel super refined and polished, because they are. The formula for how to make a great 2d game was common knowledge by then. How to make a good 3d console game in the mid 90s... not so much.

A lot of games can be had far cheaper if you get a Japanese copy. Example right off the top of my head, my favorite Saturn game, House of the Dead. Go over to Fleabay right now if you don't believe me. US copy: $300. Japanese copy: $30. Another one of my favorites, Pandemonium: $80. Japanese version, called Magical Hoppers: $35.
