Let's see.
I don't have too much experience with the Genesis so as it stands I would not call it better than the SNES. And also I like the SNES a lot, so Genesis surpassing it would be quite something.
As I have enjoyed JRPGs so much the PS1 has a bit of an edge on the N64. But only for RPGs, to me. I didn't really care for too many of the other things on PS1, save a couple exceptions. Similar story with the Saturn except with a smaller pool of games.
PS2 was great, Gamecube was great. Dreamcast is fun but overrated. Xbox... I dunno. I've never been jealous of it but maybe it has its unique quality moments.
Wii and the others are just too different. I don't feel the other two consoles are "better" than the Wii, in retrospect, but you need to own one of them to get many of the great games of the generation. I'll always favor the few great Wii games more, but by numbers there are more good games on the other consoles.
Right now I feel I still own the best console of the 8th gen. (; But there's very little choice to be had on it and given more time there will be a lot of games I want to play on PS4 and XBO that I can't get where I am now.
