Don't know if it included handhelds or not, but either way my answers stay the same.

Agree with 5 and 7 but no way with 6. Dreamcast was the bee's knees! Well, I might be juuust a tad biased me being a fan of arcade games and a SEGA fan (back in the day).

Mine -

5th gen - Saturn (Didn't buy one. Played it a few times around my friends house, games never stuck with me)
6th gen - Gamecube (Horrible controller, exclusives bit of a letdown after the N64)
7th gen - Wii (Again, the games never appealed to me)



Around the Network

5th gen- Saturn. Meh.
6th gen- Dreamcast. One of my favorites, but wasn't around long enough to truly compete.
7th- Wii. Pretty much a party machine full of shovelware near the end.
8th- Xbone. Can't comment much on it though since I don't have one, this could easily change.



                                                                                                               You're Gonna Carry That Weight.

Xbox One - PS4 - Wii U - PC

5th gen:saturn
6th gen: dreamcast
7th gen: wii
8th gen: xbox one(remember e3 2013)

EDIT: reson why I chose XB1 was because its the same exact thing as ps4 except weaker and has halo(really that doesnt justify it much)



Bets:

(Won)Bet with TechoHobbit: He(Techno) says 10 million by January 1,2014 I say 9 million by then. Winner gets 2 weeks of sig control.

(Lost)Bet with kinisking: I say Ps4 will win April NPD while he says Xbox One will win it; winner gets 1 week of avatar control.

Raichu's First Series:

First RPG?

First Fighter?

First Racer?

First Shooter?

First MMO?

First Horror?

Official Ni No Kuni Fanboy:

Familiars Captured:37

Game Beaten: 2 times almost

Times I got teary during some scenes: 3

Saturn
Xbox
Xbox360
X1 (I choose it only because I haven't play it yet)



5th: N64
6th: Xbox
7th: Wii
8th: N/A (but so far X1 isn't appealing at all for me)

Xbox was the worst since gen 1.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

7th gen was also the only gen were I played all of them (because in the 6th gen no one in Norway owned anything besides PS2s, I didn't even hear about Gamecube and the OG Xbox before the 7th gen started) anyways Wii was the worst for me because of the lack of third party (besides shovelware).

Dat poll. Well Dreamcast for 6th, nothing wrong with the console itself but it died way too young and missed out on so much. And for seventh gen, I suppose the Hyperscan counts? 8th gen has barely started but all 3 aren't that stellar at the moment.


You and anyone dare saying Dreamcast must be out of your minds. It died too soon yes, but in those few years, Sega built up such an amazing library that gave it its legendary status. Gamecube or Xbox don't even come close to it.

 



- Since gen 5 the worst conoles have the word playstation on the name.



Gen 1 (because 3D gaming started with PS1, EA is right): Saturn
Gen 2: Xbox, this console doesn't have many memorable games, least liked system after the Wii
Gen 3: Wii, what a terrible console, most shovelware, annoying motion controls, no HD in an era when everyone was getting HDTV's.
Gen 4: looks to be Xbone, not many exclusives, looks like its loosing some of its high profile games to PC, no Japanese push like the 360 in its early years, deliberately weakened console because it was made with TV entertainment in mind. Spend 100s of millions on NFL contracts that could've been used to fund approximatly 10 great and varied AAA games.
