A lot of consoles (bar sonys but then again there not that smart) have prototype names (Game cube was dolphin, Dreamcast had Kitanna, Wii had revolution)
*Remembers when conker was gonna be a kids game*

I wonder was the Atari 2600 bit or was in 2600 bits before it was made ?

I was right about the emulator aswell, kinda... http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/n64/ultrahle.html

It was two times more powerful than PS1 and Saturn!That's what they wanted to show with "64"!And it's sound system was better even though the other systems used CDs!!
