For me it's a tie between SNES and N64, with NES in a close third.  Then GCN fourth, Wii dead least.

N64 had a handful of incredible games, but SNES had a lot of excellent games.  So it's difficult.  If you're into JRPG's over action/platformers, then SNES is definitely #1.

i bought GC games up to the last year of the console, about four to be exact. im STILL buying Cube games, thats more than I can say for my Wii, if you have games you can buy on your Wii that you love, good for you, for me there aint much worth a damn coming out.  how about you give me list of games that came out the lst two year on GC instead of posting nonsense.  You bought 3 games for Wii last year?? WOW that is a lot!

im telling you to growup becasue you cant accept that someone likes GC more than Wii and you keep coming with facts that this system had droughts, Even if GC had droughts the gaems that it was getting is better than what Wii is getting

Come off your "I'm a victim" bullshit, for one I didn't post against anyone who liked the cube I posted against a flawed statement someone made about long time gamers you're the one who came in and turned it into a GC vs Wii thing disagreeing against the view that another console has a better library before backtracking with your tail between your legs so take your own advise on growing up as like Piers Morgan you've dug yourself in a hole by not being quiet then throwing your toys out the pram when things don't go your way, ironic that you are the one making the accusation of not accepting a view on libraries when that was never in the original post and you disagreeing vehemently is the sole reason you are here. Secondly could care less about what games you think are better because as people go it can go either way and many would count the GC out which is why I just looked at games considered good, you're still buying GC games good for you but guess what sonny jim it doesn't mean the library is better in a comparison I'm buying new releases on the Wii something GC only had two of in the last two years.

What has the first two years got to do with an overall library again you're just ranting for the sake of it now because it still won't change the point that the GC has a weaker library.

The NES for me. It single handedly revitalized home gaming after the crash of '83-'84, it set standards with classics like Super Mario Bros and The Legend of Zelda, and it had so many great games. Pretty much everything on the market at the time was on the NES, save for 1st party Sega games, and even some of them, such as Shinobi and Afterburner, came to NES via Tengen... that's how popular the NES was in its day.

The SNES is easily second, followed by the Gamecube (loved it, even though it has by far the worst Mario game).

I love the N64 and Wii as well, but these were the only two generations where I felt it absolutely necessary to own another system, as there were so many great games on the market that didn't come to these two. Some would say the same for the GC, however there weren't very many games I cared about that gen that weren't on GC.

Now if you count everything the Wii has as far as backwards compatibility (all GC games), ports (Res 4 and Prime Trilogy) and Virtual Console in addition to its own library then obviously it has a major advantage.

victim?? Never. You wrote a whole paragraph and you are still crying about nothing.  I didnt dig myself into anything, I said GC had a better library than WIi does ans im still saying it and will continue to do so.  when did I say anything about the first two years??  I dont care if many people would count the GC library out, so im just supposed to go with them because they might be the majority?? F**k out of here. I have a mind of my own. Again I think the GC library is better than the WII one, simple as that. If you dont think so, thats fine. FYI I never tried to prove otherwise, you were the one talking about bringing up lists and shit.

N64 closely followed by the SNES. Strangely the greatest weakness of the N64 was the greatest strength of the SNES - RPGs.

SNES, naturally.
