PC, 360, PS3, 3DS - The gamecube is a perfect replacement for the Wii. 360 is pretty unnessesary with a pc, but its the only way I'll get to play halo so I would get one before I get a psp or psv.

PC, PS3, PSV, 3DS. I chose the PSV and 3DS for portable gaming and the fact I could play DS/PSP games. The PS3 is my main console of choice and would remain that. I chose the PC for those games that I can't get on other systems.



I'd go, PC, Wii, 3DS PSV.

Why no PS3 or 360? A lot of their games can be had on PC.

That said I own PC, Wii, 3DS, PS3 and 360 and prolly won't get a PSV.

I assume when you say curent gen, you mean 8th gen handheld, and 7th gen consles, which is odd.

For me it would be 3DS, Wii, X360, PC.

I know X360 and PC are similar consoles, but I like 360's console exclusives over PS3's. Wii is backward compatible with Gamecube, and both of those system have an excellent sellection of games. 3DS is backward compatible with DS, and in general I love Nintendo handhelds. As for PC, it's kind of a shoe in because it's been around for 20 years, so the library is the biggest.

At most it's 6th gen handheld:
 - Pre-GB era (all I can think of are Game & Watch, but as they only played 1 game each i'm not sure if they should be counted as handheld consoles)
 - GB
 - GBC
 - GBA
 - DS
 - 3DS

Although handhelds haven't really followed the same pattern as home consoles (1989-1998-2001-2004-2011)

Having said that, Wikipedia seems to refer to 3DS and Vita as 8th gen... just seems rather odd to me though (I mean if handheld generation depend on the release of home consoles doesn't that mean GBC and GBA are both in the 6th gen because Dreamcast also released in 1998 like GBC, while GC and XB released 2001 like GBA)

Also even if 3DS/Vita and PS3/360/Wii are different numbered generation, they are still all current gen systems until Wii U launches.


Actually, there was the Microvision... that had like a 10 year jump on the Gameboy.

 

Your point still stands though.



PS3 and PSP, that's all I need.

60GB PS3 play PSX, PS2 and PS3 games. PSP download emulator play any game older then PSP.

other combi

pc
360
ps3
vita or 3ds



The top one is exactly what i have...wii, 3DS, pc, ps3



iPad
iPod touch
iPhone
Xbox 360



OP says current Gen, I assume Vita and 3DS override it for whatever reason.

Anyway look at sig. Switch out the 3DS when the WiiU arrives.



e=mc^2

Gaming on: PS4 Pro, Switch, SNES Mini, Wii U, PC (i5-7400, GTX 1060)

Well it is quite easy for me, these are the current gen gaming devices I own:

PC (now nice and powerful!)
360
PS3
PSV

If I had to get rid of one going forward, it would be the 360, it offers far fewer exclusives than the PS3 and I don't like the controller (although ironically, I do use a 360 controller for many PC games)
