DS for a few reasons.
1. It has more RPGs than anything ever.
2. There is definitely something for everybody, from the near-impossible random dungeoncrawling variety to touchscreen-controlled combat games like The World Ends With You.
3. It has remakes of all the best RPGs from the NES and SNES, and random new games from long dead franchises like Lufia.
4. The only non-Japanese release of FF3, meaning it is also the only system that can play FF1-6 and Chrono Trigger.
5. It's portable and has a very long battery life, so you can clock in some RPG hours on long bus or plane rides.
6. You can touch the screen. For games like RPGs that rely heavily on menu selections, that ends up saving you hours.
