5: Sega Dreamcast

I just love the style of it's games. When you look at PSO, Sonic Adventure, Crazy Taxi, Shenmue etc, it's easy to understand why having a synchronized hardware and software divisions is such an advantage. There is just something very special about that library, it was different and fresh. When I first heard of Dreamcast, I didn't know it was made by Sega, and thought it was just some newcomer console. I got one later on and regret never wanting to find out more about it back in 2001. ( I was a kid, please don't hate me DC )

4: Game Boy

Pokémon, it stole my childhood!

3 Sega Megarive.

By far Sega's best console. 2D Sonic and Sonic CD are some of the best platformers ever made. Plenty of good games in every genre at the time. It even has the legendary RTS Dune II. Many say that Playstation is the console that started to bring in more mature gamers, but it was the Megadrive that started that trend (not that I care for mature gaming anyways Game consoles are supposed to be toys, and I wouldn't have it any other way). Also, It's main competitior was the Super Nintendo, and to compete against the most complete game library ever a console has to be good.

2 Super Nintendo Entertainement System.

Any good console may have a diverse library, but is the library complete, or is there something missing?

The Super Nintendo was indeed one of the most complete game consoles ever made. It had almost every big game or game franchise at the time in it's library, from street fighter to Final Fantasy to Super Mario World. Nintendo games are heavy weight, a console that doesn't have them, or doesn't have someting comparable to them is missing something. Same goes for the big third party franchises, if you don't have them, you are missing something.
Well, the Super Nintendo had both. It has the most complete and timeless game library of all time.

1: NES

copypaste what I said for the SNES and just add some basic video game history to the mix. And the fact that more franchises started on it. And it had more and better sports games than SNES (if anyone cares about them, I sure don't)

Yes, it was easy as a pancake.

Btw, how do you know I've not played a Wii? Just because of my primitive questions about motion controls and stuff?

Owned a PS2 but didn't follow it much and spent most time playing sport games/GTA on it.

No, I am never condescending. Why do you have that impression ?

If your intention was to off somebodies opinion with an excuse like age, then it definately is as such. From the tone of your post though, it seemed like a light-hearted way of saying "everybody is choosing newer consoles" though. There are people that feel that age makes somebodies opinion more valid. I don't think you are one of them.

Thanks. That would be stupid indeed, especially about videogames.

But yes, I said that because I felt old while reading the console lists ! lol.

@CGI-Quality: Dont forget that English is only my third language. Sometimes I might be writing my impressions the wrong way...

I ask this of every poster who posts a top ten list. Are you basing your list on:

1) Which consoles were the most original, innovative and important to the industry. -or-
2) Which consoles had the best hardware, capabilities and most refined games.

If you go with #1, than NES was more original, innovative and important to the industry than PS1.
Same thing with N64. It did more for 3D gaming than either PS1 or PS2.
