Forums - Gaming - IGN: Top 25 Videogame Consoles (15-11) -- A Sony console

mike_intellivision on 03 September 2009

Intellivision > PS3 CONFIRMED.

This is what is still out there:

NES, SNES, N64, Wii.
Genesis, DC
PS1, PS2
2600
Xbox 360

In 6-10:
N64, PS2, Xbox 360, SNES, Genesis

In 1-5
PS1, Wii, NES, DC, 2600

Mike from Morgantown

Note: 1-5 were all game-changers. And if you are wondering about 2600 -- it sold 30M in the classic era.

Actually an IGN blogger had said that the Wii will not be included in the top 25 at all.

That's actually pretty sad. The Wii changed the whole game plan by adding a new way of playing, introducing COMPLETE non-gamers to gaming, and going on to break records even the PlayStation 2 did not, and it's the best selling home console of all time.

As I said, that's pretty sad...

I would actually have an easier time believing the 360 wouldnt be in there instead of the Wii.   The Wii has done more for gaming this generation and in general than the other 2 and have done.  360 and PS3 just refined what their predecessors did, the Wii changed the game with that controller so much even the competition had to take notice and try and duplicate it.  Even though I dont like the Wii I have to admit that much.

My top 5 would be this

1. PS2
2. SNES
3. NES
4. PS1
5. 2600

You can switch 1 & 2 and/or switch 3 & 4 and I would still agree though

I think we don't need spoilers on the list:
25 - Odyssey
24 - Jaguar
23 - Atari 5200
22 - 3DO
21 - Odyssey 2
20 - Master System
19 - Neo-Geo
18 - Saturn
17 - Atari 7800
16 - Gamecube
15 - PlayStation 3
14 - Intellivision
13 - TurboGrafx-16
12 - ColecoVision
11 - Xbox

And frankly IGN putting the PS3 where it did is disgraceful. I'm sure the TG16 is a fine system but come on. 3rd place -- currently 3rd place. 1st to do CD -- 1st to do Blu-ray. PS3 is much stronger vs. its competition, IMO, than TG16 was. I can't comment on the ColecoVision, but I think the Intellivision being higher is at least arguable.

And the PS3 is the only system to easily swap HDDs (no extortion).

Also GC should be higher, and the description of it shouldn't contain the phrase "purple lunchbox".

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

If anyone wondered about the anti-Wii prejudice, here is an evidenturary piece.

10-6 are done
10. Wii
9. Nintendo 64
8. Dreamcast
7. Playstation
6. Xbox 360
once 5-2 are in 1 should be obvious
so 5-1 are the ps2, snes, nes, genesis/MD and 2600
funny thing on the dreamcast, they showed a Japanese console and a European
controller
well anyway this list is pretty screwy, nice to see Iron Soldier and SHining force 3 get mentioned in the write ups
but this should actually not be taken as a top 25 list but taken as insight to consoles you know little or nothing about, their are great Jag, intellivision (wish they had mentioned thunder castle and diner), colecovision, 7800, 3do, and etc games, they exist and you should give them a chance before making blanket statements about how bad the jag or 3do are



I HAVE A DOUBLE DRAGON CAB IN MY KITCHEN!!!!!!

NOW A PUNISHER CAB!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vetteman94 on 03 September 2009

Wow, their choices for 10-6 are worse than the choices for 25-11. 360 isnt even in the same league as the PS1 or N64, and it shouldnt be higher than the Wii. IGN are morons



Christhor on 03 September 2009

360 above the Ps1 and N64... really?



Slimebeast on 03 September 2009
