Forums - Gaming - Worst console you've owned?

I pretty much enjoyed all of my systems - NES, C64, SNES, N64, PS, PS2, PS3, 360, Wii, NDS and PSP. My least favoured though would have to be the Wii. It's the first console I've sold before the end of a generation.

It's a handheld not a console, but it's the only gaming system that I fell was a giant waste of money. So...PSP.



Xbox 360 and PS3. Of course this can change...



     

 

Well, I would have to say either the RCA Studio II or the APF MP-1000. (And yes, I own them -- I am a collector).


Really, it is hard to say that any post-crash console is BAD. Though owning both a Jag and a V-boy, I am glad I got them cheap.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

As for consoles I owned, the Wii was probably the one I sold the quickest. To be quite honest, I've usually found "losing" consoles to provide me with quite a bit of enjoyment. At least for Gamecube and PS3.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

Just another thread to hate the Wii on. Maybe you guys should wait until the generation ends before judging it. I'm not saying that the Wii will end up with a great library of games, but you will look pretty stupid if it does and you have been bashing it for years.

Moving on...My worst would have to be PS1. I don't think it is a bad console, but It never really had that many games that interested me. Also, by the time I got it, I got a PS2 that I could use instead. Just look at a PS1. You could play football with an N64. My friend dropped his N64 down the stairs of his house at least 4 times and i am still playing games on it (I dropped a futon beam on it; Took a big chunk out of the chasis, and it still works). If I touch the top of a PS1, the game freezes.




 

Wii or Gamecube.

Atari Jaguar.. 64bit my ass... but still.. Aliens vs Predator was a great game..

I would have made a big mistake because that was the one game I desperately wanted to play in my youth....

 

With how cheap the two are on eBay, it's finally worth it if you have the extra cash lying around. I'm thinking of doing it myself because I never got to beat the game, and there are three campaigns to play through.

 

If you are for super cereal right now, I might just get this for christmas.

 

Why don't you guys just dig up an old PC version of the game?

Unless you have really masochistic tendencies, I don't see any reason to suffer the experience provided by the Jaguar controller.

It's not the same game.

Oh really Onyx? I always assumed it was. The AvP for PC was scary as shit at the time. Damn, that game freaked me out.

I usually dont buy a console until there's a few games I want for it. I got a Dreamcast, and less than a week later, my friend was telling me about the big story on CNN about Sega quitting the console business! I could've punched Sonic in the balls (but that bastard's fast)!! Luckily, the Dreamcast rocked despite being dead. Best & Worst investment ever.

Hilarious

@ topic

I like all the consoles I've owned.
