Which console would you pick on a lonely island, and is your favorite?

PS1.

Most creative time for the big industry by a ridiculously long shot, nothing comes close to compare to it, and PS1 had pretty much it all.

Indies games are now the only thing close to it, but still mostly limited by their investment power.

In a desert island situation, wouldn't you want a PS2 or PS3?

There's no rules against backwards compatibility. You get a bigger lineup of games even if PS1 is your favorite. 

I don't think that's a fair way to compare then.

When making comparisons between them I only consider what was released after the system was already out, so what was actually getting put out during its own generation.

Nothing prevents systems with full BC to be better as a single thing to own, because it's that + more, and other people to choose them because of that, but I don't think it is fair to compare them that way.

If I'm picking PS2 mostly because of PS1 games that makes it even more clear which one is my favorite.
