SNES

Gamecube

Gamecube for me.

Gamecube was a beast.

Too torn between the SNES and the N64. One helped further my gaming career, the other re-establsihed for me what I had been missing.

Of course technically the Wii u is by far nintendo's best console but in terms of entertainment and just pure fun i would say it is between Nintendo 64 and Gamecube. I vote for GC but only because it has metroid games and N64 doesn't. At the moment it is to early to judge wii u because it only has just over 2 years worth of software, in a couple of years it may become my favourite console.

I have to go with SNES but Gamecube's in a close second.

N64.

Gamecube had a really good button configuration, for those of us that does not have very nimble fingers. You know which button is the YES/action button without having to look (the BIG one in the middle).
Softwarewise it has some of the games I played the most:

• Fire Emblem (replayed every other year)
• Smuggler's Run (this was the future of racing games, I thought)
• Animal Crossing (had to use a Freeloader disc EVERY time I went to my village - but it was worth it)
• Paper Mario (replayed every third year - been a while now)
• Super Mario Sunshine (makes me happy)
• Double Dash (Baby Park battles were intense)
• Metroid
• The Wind Waker
• Twilight Princess
• Star Wars Rogue Leader (looked so good)
• Resident Evil 4
• Need for Speed (better than most that has come after it)
• Viewtiful Joe
• TimeSplitters (knew every inch of all the maps)
• Chibi-Robo! (I like to clean things up!)
• Super Monkey Ball
• Pikmin
• Ikaruga (we put the old "fat" TV on the side to play it properly)
• The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age (the best tLotR game I have played)
• Beyond Good & Evil ("Propaganda")

Easily the SNES! How can I not love the system that has amazing games like Mario World, Yoshi's Island, Super Mario RPG, Star Fox, Chrono Trigger, Mega Man X and other games?
