How could anyone vote anything over the Virtual Boy. Poll is either full of idiots, trolls or other systems fanboys. |
Alternately, people who never even saw a Virtual Boy in real life. I have literally never even heard of anyone I know even knowing someone who knew someone who actually owned one. Its a really obscure item, among the most obscure in gaming history and is believed to have sold between 500k and one million worldwide. I've never come across anyone who owned a Dreamcast or Sega Saturn either, both of those moved about 10 million units.
Stop making this about fan wars, the Virtual Boy is likely utter crap but why should people vote for things they never tried or even saw just because it offends you personally? Its like me saying that "the Dacia Sandero is my least favourite car of all time, I have never driven one or seen one, but still, I hear its horrible". Should we also downvote movies we heard were shit when we never saw them or even know someone who did?
Get a grip, man.
For me, the N64 is the best console Nintendo ever made, followed by NES, SNES, Gamecube and the handhelds, never liked the handhelds. The Wii is my least favourite of all time, simply because of the direction it took, the lack of proper implementation of the Wii-mote in the vast majority if games, the really weak 3rd party library, the poor hardware, poor connectivity and UI, lack of media functionality, the extreme cost of peripherals and extra controllers, the games that never dropped in price, the lack of catching new IP's for me (Wii series is hardly my avenue). The console itself also remained quite expensive for my taste, considering what one got in the actual bundle.
As for the illusive Virtual Boy, I'm quite sure it was a disaster but I still never played one or even saw one in real life. I strongly doubt that 26 people who voted Virtual Boy has actually tried the thing, given the number of units sold, the number of responses and views on the thread, the number of voters in the poll and the amount of active users and even lurkers with users in here, statistics are very much against it. Voting for something you never tried simply because you've heard that its shit, making it your "least favourite", now that's a whole other kind of silly in my opinion.

ThIS! except for the N64 part, it was good, but SNES takes it for me.

I love Mario Kart on SNES and Super Mario World but it never came close to Super Mario Bros 2 and 3 for me. I also loved some of the RPG's on NES but never established a relation with them on the SNES since I started playing a lot on the PC in the early/mid 90's, I think that's part of the reason why I didn't enjoy the SNES as much as the NES.
The N64 had some incredible games, Mario 64 and the best Mario Kart (imo), Banjo Kazooie, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Starfox, Turok (among my favourite console shooters of all time, such a unique series), Star Wars: Rogue Squadron, the two best Zelda games I ever played and Conker's Bad Fur Day. The big draw for me with the N64 was the stupidly high premium the games and controllers charged, games were about 800-850NOK here, compared to the usual 500-550NOK for a PS title, this still doesn't prevent me from naming the N64 as my favourite Nintendo console and my 3rd fav of all time behind PS2 and PS1. Amazing, amazing machine and I'm one of those fools who actually loved the N64 controller!
