Being that my interest began to wane after the plug-and-play era (Atari 2600-PS2) was over, I am going to go with PS1... though I will acknowledge that PS2 is vastly superior when it comes to its game library. I always put a premium on innovative games and consoles, and the PS1 was very much the NES of it's era. Before that console launched, gaming was mostly for nerds and children. Sony changed that, almost overnight. At least where I lived, anyway. Suddenly, there were cool twenty-somethings gaming and adults going into stores and buying video games for themselves... which was mind-boggling to me at the time. Its games were also so unique and different from everything else that came before it that when I play them now, I get a far bigger kick to the nostalgia-bone than I do when I fire up my PS2.
