best: snes - so many great and addictive games, so many memories.

worst: gamecube - i hated the controller, i hated the kiddie themed games that plagued the platform, it was a complete failure in my opinion.

Best: Genesis I loved it until it died but I have my Dreamcast to bring back memories...

Worst: Gamecube just didn't live up to what I hopped...

A couple of reasons why I feel the gamecube is not a bad console, but still the worst console THAT MATTERS.

Twin Snakes
Resident Evil 4(it was exclusive for quite a while)
Resident Evil Remake
Wind Waker
Eternal Darkness
Tales of Symphonia
Killer 7(again, timed exclusive, but worth it at the time)
Pikmin 2

Now the gamecube definately has some amazing exclusives, and there is no doubt anyone who never owned one should go back and pay the 99 bucks or whatever, or just buy a Wii and go through that library of games I've mentioned, plus several great multiplats like Beyond Good and Evil.

However, the gamecube is already beaten by the Wii in terms of game quality and quantity, imo, and it stands as one of the most lackluster consoles that matter, due to several medicore fluke bad Nintendo games, and near complete abandonment by 3rd party developers. The Xbox comes a close second, as it really didn't have many more great exclusives than the Gamecube, but it had a lot of PS2 port multiplats to lift it up above the Gamecube.

Of the consoles that matter:

Dreamcast
PS1
PS2
Wii
SNES
NES
PS3
N64
Xbox
Gamecube
360

The Gamecube must definately go at the bottom of that short list, but that's not to say that the cube is a bad system by any means. It's just worse than most other systems which are amazing by any standards. The PS3 and Dreamcast are also close to the bottom of that list, so it's nothing to be ashamed of.

Best: PS2
So many great games, still about 40 more I want to buy before I am done.
Worst: Atari Jaguar

From the consoles I have played.

That i owned:

Best: PS1
Reasons:
Best Library Of Games Ever
Affordable System and Games
Greatest Controller ever

Worst: Atari 5200 or GBA original
Reason Atari: BAAAAD Joysticks and clumsy device used to play 2600 games
Reason GBA: The screen was too dark to see unless you held it at a weird angle. I will not spend $30 for a game i cannot see.

Was thinking of including N64 but i don't have enough of good games and too many lousy ones for it to judge it as bad and i immensely enjoyed Mario 64 and OoT when I rented it.

Worst Ever:
Form what I've heard CD-i or N-Gage

I'll just rank mine in order

1. SNES
2. NES
3 N64
4. Wii
5. GC
6. 360
7. DS
8. GBA
7. PS1
8. Genesis
9. PS2
10. xbox
11. Dreamcast
12. PS3
13. Atari 2600

Best: N64
Worse: Tie between Tandyvision, VTech CreatiVision, Vectrex, Emerson Arcadia 2001, and Sears Tele-Games

Best: snes. So many fond memories.

Worst: ps1. Only because we got it really late and had like 5 (not so good) games for it.
