What a stupid list.

Seriously, how people forget, the Dreamcast was hated, the damn thing stopped selling. Yes, it had some great games, but so do most consoles.

The PS1 was one of the most dominating console ever, it reach 100 million consumers where no other consoles never reached.

The Wii opened it whole new market even the PS2 couldn't reach, introduced new ways of gaming that actually succeeded. It brought gaming to people who looked down on it.

A very stupid list indeed.

The Dreamcast was hated because it was too damn expensive it was the 3DO/PS3 of its time, people loved the games and things it did but as a factor for "greatest console" I'm certain they weren't thinking about price.

I don't remember price being an issue at all, in fact the Dreamcast started very hot, It was the fact the PS2 hype was so great, it sales started to fall off until Sega put it to rest. A I believe the PS2 cost way more, sir.
