Really the choices are:

NES
SNES
Playstation1
Playstation2

With those options, I choose...

Wii!

And no, I'm not being premature. My reasoning is based on the Virtual Console. This one console, in addition to playing Wii games, will eventually allow gamers to play the entire Nintendo library, as well as classics from other companies covering the last 20 years of gaming.



Now there's an opinion-drawing question... Taking a step back, I'd have to say the NES wins on the overall level. The video game industry would not be here and would not have evolved the way it has if not for it. On a more personal level, the PS1 gets big kudos for drawing me back into console gaming after having lapsed for just short of a decade. And on the most recent scale of the current contending hardware, the Wii's definitely pulling ahead thanks to it being a bit of everything in the best possible way a game system can be: it's a bit of many consoles released before it thanks to Virtual Console offerings, and a whole new something of its own with its unique control setup.

SNES. Though, if I could, I think I'd put the PC over it, cause it started it all and is alive today. Gotta give props to Nintendo though, 119 years is impressive.
