1. Nintendo's best selling home console? I know you're excluding current gen from being in the LIST but that doesn't mean you get to ignore the Wii's EXISTENCE.
2. Is the author such a PS freak that he can't even say the NES was the best selling console ever without taking a cheap shot about the PS1 selling more, despite that it happened two generations later? Or is it something else?
3. And then he spends quite a bit of time undermining the NES's accomplishments, apparently because 'it couldn't have been that bad if the NES made the industry recover'.

1) It is the best selling Nintendo home console. The Wii hasn't sold as much as it yet. The NES sold 62 million, the Wii is at 53 million. Yes, the Wii will overtake it, but the DS will overtake the GameBoy soon. Does that mean the GameBoy isn't currently the best selling handheld of all time?
2) Well, it's true. He's simply pointing out how long the NES was king of sales.
3) He said it was the second best console of all time! He clearly likes it, saviour or not.
Whatever, it's better than the IGN list. And the PS2 is the best console ever, by popular opinion. And PSP > DS may be bad, but worse than X360 > PS1? Worse than 2600 > PS2? I think not.

Before saying that, you might want to read the whole write up.

I am only talking about the positioning of each console, not the ridiculously biased write-ups.
