Sorry I'm not a fag that plays PC games
so youre a fag that plays no games?
oh wait, why am i not surprised by this?
That model had a gorgeous CRT, but alas, it was a Mac.
In the past, Macs had quite decent hardware on average, monitors usually being pretty high end, you had to deal with the OS, but usually the machines were pretty good, overpriced as all hell though.
Now I can't even say that they have good specs on anything really.
Once you learn how to mod your systems.
I can't a game cart of PS2 disk into a PC can I?
>Designed as a video game console with the base of a Mac
>Could have proven the power of Mac games as a console could attract more licensees
>Somewhere along the line it was decided to put the more expensive and relatively unproven PowerPC chip instead of settling for something like a 68040
>Also decide that it must be Internet-ready so it contains a built-in modem, despite the fact that such things were still pretty expensive back then
Result: a hideously underpowered, hideously overpriced console that goes down as the worst game console of all time and probably set the Mac even further back as a games-capable machine
A lot of the ports it got were technically superior to their DOS counterparts, though.

theres a rumor that when steve jobs came back to apple, literally the first thing he did was get rid of the pippin
The Pippin was a victim of Steve Jobs killing the cloning market. In the mid-1990s, to better compete with PCs, Apple started to license out the Mac OS architecture to other computer manufacturers. It ended up just subdividing their already tiny market share, not increasing it.
Wii U, Vita
I'm sure your parents have the answer.
Every Nintendo homeconsole after the SNES.
