The Jag was a transitional next gen system that buckled under the power of
the systems that later came out with enough power to deliver the kind of
next gen games people wanted with the quality and framerate they demanded.
It has next gen games that the Playstation does better such as Doom
clones, 2D and 3D fighters, and the obligatory 3D driving games.
In this respect the 2600 is actually better since it offers
classifications of games which are no longer done on modern systems so
poly counts and texture mapping is not really an issue.
Modern systems will have a harder time reaching classic status because
they mainly just rehash the same genres with increased 3D power.
