Nice to see people still appreciate SNES over 360 instead of having short term memories. Also somewhat surprising to see NES lose to Genesis.

You have to remember that the Nes was a Japan and USA console with very little rest of world sales there were more Master System's sold in the UK than NES's.

Which is why I'm surprised 360 didn't make it further there being so popular or Wii


RROD, I do not know a single person who was not affected by it who owned a 360.  I bet that lost it some votes for best console.

Knock out is fun, but it's useless. A poll tells a much bigger story.

I dont really think rrod affected votes much, it just seems these votes more favour nostalgia.. just my opinion though

PS2 was a monster. It deserves such an honor.

And rightly so. With all my years playing Sony consoles the first year of the PS3 release was the only year I felt let down. And COD4 came at the end of that which was the FPS GOTG. Played it for 4 years straight :)

That's actually a pretty good list and I agree with nearly all of the winners. Wonder how the handhelds would unfold.

I think it should have been N64 and PS2.
both amazing and both revolutionary.

Damm man, that semi-final with PSX x SNES, what a great semi-final. And PS2 x N64 also a very good one.

So they like the newer PS3 / 4 brands less.

competitions like this usually bring out nostalgia, in 10 years or so ps3 could easily creep up to 3rd, or even second when people are reminded of games like mgs4
