Today, let’s take a nostalgic trip down memory lane with a little “What if…?” scenario. Remember the Sega 32X? It was this ambitious add-on for the Sega Genesis that aimed to catapult the beloved console into next-gen territory. While it didn’t quite hit its mark, it left us wondering: what other classic consoles could have benefited from a similar leap forward?

Let’s imagine—what if the N64 had gotten an “N128” upgrade? Could it have kept up with the PS1 and Saturn in that fierce console war era? Or maybe there’s another platform itching for a second wind, like the SNES or even the beloved Game Boy!

What other consoles do you think should’ve received their own “next-gen” add-ons?

    The 32X was one of the things that killed Sega. Making add-ons or expansions for existing consoles has proven to be a failed business model.

    Stating this unilaterally overlooks the PC Engine CD, which has more games than the base PC Engine.
