Between SNES with Mario Kart and Star Fox, and N64 with Smash. No chance for any of the others really. Since I like Mario Kart better than Smash, and the old Star foxes as well, I’ll pock SNES.

This, especially the bolded part. Funny thing is, I like Smash more than I do Kart (because the only ones in the MK series I really enjoyed are the original and then a looooong way to MK8), but I voted SNES based on reach and importance of the series rather than my personal taste in this case.
