It's close, but I'd say between Wii and Gamecube. NES is hailed as the savior of the industry, and rightly so, as it was. So not underrated at all. SNES is remembered fondly by many and brought us a golden era of RPGs, as well as the beginning of Rare's beautiful reign at the right hand of Nintendo. N64 has a rabid fanbase despite its somewhat lackluster sales, is home to Ocarina of Time, what many claim to be the greatest game ever, and got Rare's games from the height of its glory. Gamecube has a rabid fanbase too, and is remembered by many nowadays as the console that deserved more than it got, and it got a lot. Prime, Sunshine, Melee, Double Dash, Wind Waker, Luigi's Mansion, Animal Crossing, Eternal Darkness, the list goes on and on. Sales wise the Gamecube deserved at the very least 5 times the sales, and I'll never understand why the graphically superior, cheaper console did worst. It comes close, but I think the Wii competes because ultimately, everyone KNOWS the Gamecube deserved more sales, and it gets a lot of respect. The Wii just gets hate nowadays. Sure, it won the generation in sales, but it's already forgotten by casuals, and gets hate from non-casuals from Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft alike. It got the sales, but now it's seen as a fad and nothing more, while I believe it was genuinely great.
