Thinking back, if I define killer app as a specific game that compels me to buy a console or game device just to play it, and by extension, means I would not have bought said console/hardware had that game not been available, there really isn't a single one. I've used some games as an excuse to pick up additional platforms during a generation which is a habit I've dropped (no time to play everything).
Granted, I've used various games as the kick starter to buy into hardware platforms for nearly every generation which generally isn't the one game that I remembered above all others (and likely played the most) on that platform.
Interesting thing is it's always on secondary consoles that have that one or two games that makes me buy that console in the first place. Killer apps never sell me on a primary gaming platform; it's always the franchise collection and potential library.
