PS2 was my fav so far. But if we go by a new theory i saw in Nintendo topic, everybody's answer should be PS2, cause sales = best.

For me it was the SNES. It gave me the best memories out of my gaming experience.

The Nintendo64 Gets my vote.
It's catalog of games was second to non.
It featured the 4 controller slots so people can play great games like Golden Eye and Perfect Dark.

PS1 for me ;o

PS1,tied with SNES so many memories.

Excuse me while I lecture my buddy, as a Sociology and Cultural Study student.

Popularity /= quality.

Popularity can be attained through quality but it is far more likely to be attained by marketing towards the cultural hegemony of the time.

As such, the N64 was the best. I go by the theory that you will not find a console with as many high ranked and critically acclaimed games as that console, which is a far better measure of quality than the amount of losers or casuals that bought it.

Just by comparing the sheer ammount of great games is has to be the ps2.

If we're only talking about inovation one could claim the atari or pacman arcades were the best but that's not the case.

And n64 didn't have anything exept zelda mario and pokemon. Ps1 kicked both it's and dreamcast's arses :P

PS2 for me, 'cause it has all my favourite games: Final Fantasy XII, Devil May Cry, Onimusha, Ico/SotC, Kingdom Hearts, Silent Hill, Viewtiful Joe, Budokai 3, Tekken + PS1 games like Final Fantasy 7-9, Vagrant Story, Parasite Eve 2 and many more.

SNES would be a close second, because of all those awesome RPGs :amuse

SNES, because it arguably has the greatest trilogy of S-RPG's ever on a console [Fire Emblem 3-5]

NES all the way.

Super Nintendo beats all. They have the Donkey Kong Country franchise after all.

Snes, no real argument.

LOL i know that. I said "From the Nintendo section" It was a joke. I like PS2 the best was my opinion. But i like systems that sold less then another better to :amuse And i like Snes alot too, but gameboy had alot of it's games too, so i enjoy it on the go.

in games PS1, SNES, SEGA GENESIS, and NES, and GAMEBOY/AVANCED/SP it's a tie.

Umm SNES for me With Ps1 in a close second. SNES really had alot of great titles in almost every genre you can think of.

SNES, followed by PS2/DC.

The Internet

03-19-2007, 03:11 PM

SNES, NG4 followed by Dreamcast

Sega megadrive, SNES and Dreamcast!!

I love these 3 consoles all equally and had the most fun playing them.

SNES, a true gaming powerhouse with nothing but great games in all my favorite genres.

ive never had an SNES so ive never been a big fan of it. i dunno. i love my genesis and dreamcast more than all the systems ive played combined though.

03-19-2007, 08:55 PM

N64 for me was by far and away the best system ever although the DS is shaping up to maybe suprass it.

03-19-2007, 09:04 PM

Probably the Virtual Boy. And then Turbografx-16. I'm 100% fucking serious.

It's either PS2 or SNES for me. They're both great

Violent-nin

03-22-2007, 12:55 PM

Without a doubt it's the SNES.

03-22-2007, 04:05 PM

The first console I thought when I reed the thread title was, Dreamcast, so I have to go with the Dreamcast, but the psone was great too. Third place is for the mega drive.

P.S. Is that you? I'd love to plug my controller into that socket.
