DreamCast, although I voted for Wii U in the poll before reading the OP and realizing DreamCast actually sold less than Wii U.

Wii U - still worth it!

Ouya, I guess. Never saw any official sales number. Maybe Vita (And PSTV) and Wii U if we go be the "big" releases.

*Edit* looking at other posts, I forgot the Dreamcast. Also, I bought them all in their prime.

Nintendo 64 and Atari Lynx, the latter is the only handheld console I ever owned and the N64 is easily among my favorite systems of all time.

Can see why the Lynx could leave salty image of handhelds.  You never got Gameboy?  Tetris was God back in the 80s.  Then there was a thing called the DS.  Still waiting for switch I can put in my pocket.

I actually rather liked the Lynx, but I always disliked handheld gaming in general, which is why I never bought another. I don't use my Switch in handheld mode either. Playing on small screens with poor sound and with small controllers or buttons and sticks just isn't my thing.

But...but... it's MY THING. And because it's my thing, it should be your thing. You have just made a powerful enemy today, sir. 😑

*Edit* Apparently, handhelds aren't usually that powerful. That means I'm not too powerful, either. You have made an underpowered enemy today, sir. 😟

But I don't even own a gun! I've seen your pictures, sir, I believe you are more powerful than me...

I actually bought a Wii U as a new system.  That is the only one on the list that I owned as a new system.  I did get a used Gamecube after the Wii launched.  I've tried buying a couple of used Dreamcasts, but they both broke down very shortly after buying them.  So, I don't count the Dreamcasts.  Wii U was the least popular system that I've actually owned and got some decent playtime from.



curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.

I own all of them, but I own a PSTV which sold a lot worse than those. Now if you're including PSTV with Vita, then it would be Dreamcast.

It would actually be my first console, the Atari 7800. I think it only sold 1M units.

Of the Big 3, the lowest was probably SNES, with 49M.
