I'm going with GC. I consider Melee a launch title since it released holiday season. I also got Luigi's Mansion, Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 2, and Super Monkey Ball.  All those games were great.

It's Wii in my book; for me, it had the best game of 2006 in Twilight Princess and with Wii Sports the only game of the 7th gen launch lineups that actually felt like a generational leap.

The SNES thanks to the masterpiece that is Mario World, among other great games.

I think wii because of Zelda.

But someday Nintendo needs to launch a home console with either MK or Smash, and Zelda. And a handheld with Pokémon.

The others (in US) being F-Zero, Pilotwings, SimCity and Gradius III. Yeah I agree, few games but all awesome.

Make it three. While I consider Super Mario 64 to be Nintendo's greatest launch game, I think the SNES launch line-up wins on quantity. Super Mario World is a masterpiece and the remaining games are all excellent.

I'd be willing to bet that Wii Sports could have ran on the Gamecube/PS2/Xbox if they had wanted it to.

It's rare that I see a point missed by so much. Bravo.

Yes, for me it's the Wii. There are only two games that matter, Twilight Princess and Wii Sports, but boy did those games really matter.

Hmmm between SNES and GC I think it was GC for me though. Rogue Leader, Wave Race and Melee shortly after.
