Honestly if I could mix a match elements could have the ultimate generation as each had issues along the way.

That said

1. 4th
2. 6th
3. 7th
4. 3rd
5. 5th
6. 2nd*
7. 1st**

The SNES and Genesis were two great systems that delivered so many classics. Maybe I was the perfect age, but I still play various 16 bit classics to this day.

* I barely remember this generation, but I have no desire to play games from then unlike 3rd and 4th.

** I never played games from this era so bit unfair for me to comment on it.

It seems to me that the second generation doesn't get enough love here.

Fifth for me, PS1 had the greatest games I've ever played on it.

Obviously it's also a question of age. Seeing mostly aged users here voting for 4th as I did.

Yeah, imagine a VGChartz back then. I guess there would be some Neo Geo, TurboGrafx-16, and CD-I fans as well.

CD-I?! Well, we have some Wii-U-fans here so I guess you are right

Oooooh, someone's looking to cause some trouble :P

CD-i fans back then would be more like Ouya fans now. TG-16 would be the Wii-U equivalent surely.
