I say we remove Virtual Boy since I immediately clicked on it, and to no surprise, it's the clear winner..... which makes the poll not so fun.

For me it was the wii. I'm not a fan of the motion controls. I couldn't see those motion controls being the future of gaming at all. I enjoyed some sport games on wii, and Mario kart was a lot of fun. But when it came to games like call of duty or Zelda, I just didn't like the motion controls. I wasn't too fond of the controls in Super Mario Galaxy either. The only two Zelda games I have never beaten are Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword. I stopped playing Twilight Princess half way through. I couldn't take it anymore. And I never even bothered with Skyward Sword because of motion controls. I wish they would have also gave us the option to use a GameCube remote, that would have made a world of difference to me.

you could have bought the GC version

I do have the gamecube version of Twilight Princess, just bought it last month. I plan on getting back to that game soon. But there is no Skyward Sword Game Cube version :(  



definatly the wii, no games and when they did it looked pretty bad. nintendo games is all i own for it since thye used the wii controls the best. I loved the snes and nes, tons of memories there! I still have my original gameboy and yes i own a virtual boy with all the few games that were for it. I figured i would donate it to a museum when im old and no one else has one. haha

Just wondering, why is the virtual boy regarded so badly? I don't really know anything about it.

well for one when you play your eyes are completly inclosed to make it pitch black dark looking into a viewscreen, and though things would be in 3d it was all different shaed of red and not really appealing, i liked it because of the 3d, some it gave headaches too, i didnt have that issue. It was kinda bulky and if your stand broke it would tilt to the side, I also remember it being priced kinda high also. I played alot of mario tennis and red alarm, and the other mario game that was with it at the time.

I keep all my working game consoles, even the unsuccessful ones, dreamcast, saturn,  sega cd, 32x addon, game genie and intact code book, and even an atari jaguar with 64 bit graffics!!! lol

I guess it would be the GameCube although I don't hate it (far from it actually), but from the ones I've owned it is the one I liked less.



Signature goes here!

Ya I see why it was unpopular now. Wow, you have one hell of a collection there. I usually just sell off my old consoles when I feel I'm done with them or moved on to next gen. The oldest console I have would be ps2/gamecube and handheld is gameboy advanced sp.



For me its the Wii, but I've never owned one and have only played a few games on it. My favorite is the N64.

You are not alone! I love my Wii, it's my second favourite console of all time behind the SNES. :)

It was actually my first nintendo console, so most of the games were all new to me, so that might have been why I loved (and still loves) it. Plus the virtual console.

surprised it took so long, I never bought the Wii version of TP, but maybe you didnt own a GC? You're just f****d for SS honestly you're not missing much anyway.
