Just going to put in Gamecube for #1. Which I'm sure will be a controversial pick.

The thing is while the NES, SNES, and probably even N64 has way better support in terms of volume, I feel like most games from that era haven't aged that well. Aside from the Mega Man games, I really can't remember the last time I replayed an NES third party title for instance. On SNES, Mega Man X and Square's RPGs are the only games I may replay. And on N64 just the wrestling games.

Gamecube had much fewer third party titles, but there are titles I routinely go back to. Tales of Symphonia, Resident Evil 4, Soul Calibur 2, WWE Day of Reckoning, Capcom vs SNK 2 (wish it had an online mode :(), Skies of Arcadia Legends, Metal Gear Solid, and a few more are games I actually would and have replayed recently. It's mainly a function of games of that era having aged well (beyond the simplicity of early games, but mostly past the awkwardness of early 3D) but there's just most stuff I still enjoy.

I dont agree with that pick, but I still like it.  I think nes and snes are clear leaders, but Cube was the last time I felt like the 10do versions of multiplat games had decent parity w the other versions. Only thing that was a little annoying about the 10do versions was using the cube controller. But really as far as quality 3rd party ports I think it hits 3rd place. Actually maybe 1st since most of the anes era 'multiplats had distinct differences. Oh man atarting to ramble. Ima leave it at that. Nice pick.
