If only my pc was a gaming pc....that would be another story

My first instinct was to vote for the Virtual Console for its selection, as I am a console gamer at heart.

But, but, but-

I had to pick Good Old Games, under Other. Shame on you for not including it. Shaaaame.

Depends, on matters of content versus delivery, i mean it's hard to beat the one of those that has pretty much everything worth owning from the NES through the N64 and everything in between (except 32x, 3DO, Jaguar, PS1, and Saturn), even if it does suffer from low speeds, a points system, and device-specific content locking

 

Though Steam has an impressive library either way to go with its surpassingly awesome feature-set, so it would probably edge VC out either way

VC haz N64 titlez?

Yeah it has Mario 64, Star fox 64, Zeldas and 1080...but it doesn't have Goldeneye, DK64, Diddy Kong Racing, Perfect Dark, Conquer, Bomberman 64, or Blitz.  Perhaps I wanted too much out of the VC, and was left extremely underwhelmed.
