SONY

  • PS4 Pro (9/10): By far my most used and appreciated system. Games look great on my 4K, even if people want to argue about it being upscaling. It'd get a higher score of it was backwards compatible and had a 4K Blu-ray Drive.
  • PS4 (8/10): The predecessor to my Pro, my PS4 got just as much use daily as my Pro does prior to it's replacement. Like the Pro, it would get higher marks if I could play my PS3 games on it.
  • PS3 60GB (8/10): My backwards compatible PS3 got a fair amount of use as well when I still used it, and it had just about everything I could have wanted in a platform... Except crossgame chat.
  • PS2 Slim (8.5/10): Dat library. Limited online support in an era of budding online services and a particularly nasty failure rate are what limits this score from hitting a 9/10.
  • PS1 (6.5/10): Surprise; when the PS1 came out, I was a die-hard Sega can and was vehemently against it. I did eventually warm up to it, though, enjoying several Final Fantasy titles on it, as well as Soul Reaver. But my initial distaste for it will always remain.
  • PSP (8/10): Monster Hunter Freedom. Birth By Sleep. Crisis Core. Most of my favorite games for a period of my life were on this system. It's a shame its limited online capabilities ruined a perfect score from me.
  • Vita (7/10): I loved the Vita out of the gate, and will still grab it over my 3DS... But my inability to play Crisis Core or Birth By Sleep on it severely hamper my enjoyment of it.
NINTENDO
  • New 3DS XL (6.5/10): It's not a bad platform. I like it, but I also have trouble getting into many games on it.
  • Wii U (6/10): A surprisingly useful console for parties, but only because it's hard to find someone who is not down for both Smash AND Mario Kart.
  • 2DS (5/10): Great for my daughter, but it's an awkward design and the screens are very small. Too small for me to enjoy.
  • DS Lite (4/10): Fight me. I hated the DS when it came out for capitalizing on a gimmick that I still dislike. If I'm being honest, I also only got the system to play Kingdon Hearts and Pokemon.
  • Wii (6/10): The saving grace of the Wii was the same as the Wii U: Smash and Mario Kart.
  • GameCube (7/10): The last time I really took Nintendo seriously, if I'm being honest. It's a shame it's dismal numbers also heralded the Gimmick Era of Nintendo.
  • N64 (8/10): Some of my favorite retros are here, including Ogre Battle 64. The controller was a total mess, though.
  • SNES (8/10): Most of my young childhood was spent play Turtles in Time and beating the crap out of my brother in Tournament Fighters.
  • NES (5/10): I'm sorry, but having precedence doesn't make you good. The NES just sucked in my eyes.
  • Gameboy Pocket (9/10): I have nostalgic feels for my GBP, so I'm giving it an unfair score because screw you, they're my scores. I begged my mom for a Pocket and Pokemon Blue, and I got it, and I loved it. Also, Link's Awakening.
  • Gameboy Color (8/10): I had a Pikachu GBC until I lost it. Now I have a plain turquoise. Still works, and I still loved Pokemon and Zelda on it.
  • GBA (8/10): Golden Sun, Kingdom Hearts, and Breath of Fire- Oh my!
