PS1 - There were just too many to name, and all those Final Fantasy games and FF remakes that also included Chrono Trigger!! FTW!! ..and PS2 also has a great library of RPG games.

The PS2 has way more RPGs (and a lot of them are excellent), but the quality of some of the PS1 RPGs will never be equalled: Suikoden II, Final Fantasy VII, FFVIII, Chrono Cross and FF Tactics are five of my favourite games ever.
Then comes the PS2, no doubt: Persona 3, Suikoden III, Suikoden V, Star Ocean 3, Xenosaga, Kingdom Hearts II, SMT Nocturne, FFX, FFXII and Disgaea (and some more I'm missing) make the hugest lineup of excellent RPGs available on any console

Super Nintendo, although the first PlayStation wasn't that far off.
