What say you?

My childhood console is still my #1 1 100.00%
 
It's been surpassed (Tell us by what) 0 0%
 
Total:1

My first console was the SNES, and to this day no other system has managed to surpass it for me, though Switch 1 came close.

How about you, what was your first console, and has it ever been topped in your estimation or does it remain your #1?



Around the Network

My favorite is the SNES, my childhood console.

But PS1, NES, PS2 and Wii came close. PS1 because it was revolutionary when I was a kid. NES because I had a NES Clone at some point. PS2 because I still have one, and it has the best library I ever saw. And Wii because it was the last Nintendo system I really wanted to own, and the motion controllers stood out. Plus it had Super Smash Bros. Brawl.



Hard to say.. I’m not sure if GCN or Switch would be considered my childhood console. Throughout the Wii/Wii U generation, I always looked bitterly at Nintendo compared to their “Golden Years” that were GCN, the system I played up until 3rd grade. But the instant Switch hit market, I was immediately swayed by BotW and MK8DX into saying that yeah GCN has been surpassed.

To this day, I still consider Switch as my favorite, and I really see no reality where a system can top the memories I got from Breath of the Wild, Mario Odyssey, Tears of the Kingdom, Pikmin 4, and so many other all time classics. My first 3D Mario, 2D and 3D Zelda, 2D Metroid, Mario RPGs, etc. It all started here.



One of my childhood consoles (snes) is still mt favorite and i dont consider it has been surpassed yet.
