Of Nintendo's consoles that feature a "main menu"/UI/OS, so Gamecube onwards, which one do you think was the best, and why?

Gamecube

Wii

DS

3DS

Wii U

Switch 1/2

Ugh. They are all kind of bad. Switch 1 I guess. (Haven't tried Switch 2 or Wii U). The Switch UI is simple enough just bland. I really wish you could fully turn of the system from the UI without have to push the power button.

The Wii for sure because I loved how you could customize your main screen (and subsequent screens to the right) with your favorite titles. I don't like that Switch/2 just shows what you played last on the main screen but I do love the group/folder customization, so they would be my next favorites. I wish you could at least go to groups immediately when you select "all software" though.

The WiiU would definitely be last because I hated that Miiverse came up on your TV first. If it had allowed me to have the games menu on both the tablet and TV simultaneously instead of that Miiverse junk at all it would have been great.

That doesn't look like the DS I remember...

Oops, good catch, never owned one so it seemed image search lied to me. Gimme a sec.

Switch is the most functional. Wii had the most fitting theme. Gamecube had the Famicom disk system music slowed down. Wii U had the best music.

I dunno I never cared for any of them but I am happy how fast Switch UI is. Wii U's was far too slow. Nothing has beaten Dreamcast UI for me in combining personality and function.
