PS1 and 2 possibly had more critically acclaimed games than N64's entire library and you call this objective?

A more realistic objective top 5 should look closer to this:
1. PS1
2. PS2
3. SNES
4. NES
5. X360/PS3


well at least you recognize the ps3 and 360 to be similar enough to occupy the same rank. lol.

2. PS1
1. SNES



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

1. Dreamcast

2. PS4 in terms of power and future complete library

3. Gamecube

4. NES

5. Sega Saturn (With modchip to play all region games and a 4MB RAM cart installed. There are a ton of great games on it.)

This is just the first five on a top 20 in descending order right?



PxlStorm on 21 May 2015

Wii on the top 5 list? Yep, TOTALLY objective.
It's impossible to make an objective list, so I won't even try it.

1. Vita
2. PS3
3. PS4
4. 3DS
5. GCN

Am I allowed to include PC? If yes, it'd take first place.

The SNES on top is correct. I would have added the PS2 instead of the N64 though.

This thread just prove it's impossible to rank consoles objectively.
Just the genres you like and dislike can change your opinion drastically.

For example, I'm not liking N64 and GC a lot, because I'm not a fan of Zelda and Metroid Prime.
However, I love Wii and WiiU, because Xenoblade is my favorite game ever, Mario Kart is playable online, Super Mario Galaxy and Tropical Freeze are my favorite platformers, etc...
