what!

dreamcast

why would you list a prematurely discontinued console there

 

Darth do you not like SEGA???, WAIT!!, why isnt any of SEGA's consoles on the list

 

no I like them

but I feel this love for the dreamcast....90% of it is unfounded & is the unacceptability that the person's console of choice got discontinued.

Mostly what people say here is feelings and opinion, but I dont think you can argue that anything created is 'more important' than the NES.  Not only did the NES help get the video game industy back on its feet, but it introduced millions upon millions of people to console video gaming.

 

Isn't that what the Wii is doing now?

SEGA hasn't really changed the games industry that much.



I like because of the "style" it had it always had uniqueness to it

1NES
2GB
3SNES
4n64
5GBA
6GC
7DS
8Wii

if I were to go to 10

9DC
10playstation

I thought this list was suppose to be most important, not favorite.

 

I'd hardly consider the SNES to be the third most important console in the games industry.

The Genesis belongs on the list, because it created a major degree of competition for Nintendo and advanced gaming tremendously through that, as well as doing what Nintendo wouldn't (*ahem*).

Also, the N64 belongs as well. First analog stick in console gaming? Force feedback? Four-player splitscreen? Console FPS transformation? Party gaming? The N64 was nothing but innovation, it seems like.

 Online play, VGA HD output, More great games in 2 years than most consoles in a lifetime.

Which makes it a nice console, but it didn't do much for the industry, now did it?

I believe the analog stick was implemented earlier, but I'm not certain.

 

You make some valid points, though.



im gonna make a better list hold on
