So what's your favorite console of all time consolefags ? It doesn't have to be the best or the newest, just the one you enjoyed the most.

picture related - the feel, the compact size and the few games it had were just perfect for me

Gotta agree with you, anon. Simply the best

PS2

>>343235163

PS2 or SNES easily, I'm leaning more towards PS2 since a majority of my early vidya memories are on that system.

SotC, Need for Speed, MGS, it was all the pinnacle of console gaming for me.

PC, it's technically a console that'll eventually be able to emulate every console that ever existed or will exist.

PS1 for me, so many great games that I spent ages playing.

Never had the pleasure to play, how was it anyway ?

>>343242042
Best game if you get friends that git gud enough
Otherwise just average.
"Real" pokemon games had almost nothing over the GC ones back at the time.

>>343235163
You posted it.

PS2 and SNES are close, maybe the NX can beat this one day.

Also have a soft spot for the dreamcast.

NES and Playstation 2

NES for Megamans - PS2 for survival horrors (using backwards compatability for PS1-titles)

>early childhood NES/Master System
>childhood SNES/Genesis
>middle school Saturn/N64/PS
>high school PS2/DC/GC/Xbox

I grew up during literally the entire spectrum of the home console golden age.

Too hard for me to pick a favorite.
>>
Probably the Wii U, just because Xenoblade X and Pokken were two of my dreams come true. Along with its other great games, it just barely edges out over the Gamecube, which defined my childhood.

SNES by far.

Games felt like they were so bright, fresh and new.

All the platformers you heart could desire.

Updated Mario 1 Mario 2 and Mario 3, World and Yoshis Island. All the Donkey Kong games...

I got a PC in 1997 and with Voodoo and Nvidia/Ati PS1/PS2 became a joke for me. It was just action games and jRPGs.

Menwhile on PC I had online with Starcraft, Diablo, Half Life, Call of Duty 1 and so on...

So SNES to me was the console I enjoyed the most. After that I was and am a PC fag.

Strategies and FPS beat out whatever consoles has to offer these days.

I also pitty you Americans with your shitty Purple blocky snes.

I fucking loved my 4 color gamepad.

xbox had a better library, by far
much better

ps2 did have more games, but xbox wins in quality alone
there are so many hidden gems many people don't know about.
its truly amazing

As for my singular favorite, the PS2 sits on the top of my list. Lots of games, plenty of variety. Backwards compatible for even more games. Gamecube is a close second, if only for the memories of all dem multiplayer games.

But really I've loved every console I've owned so far EXCEPT the Wii U. I just didn't get much out of it.

Probably n64 or xbox 1... xbox because.. well >>343246881 , shit was so fun .. also halo had a very butterflies on the stomach feel to it. It would've not been much of a deal if I hadn't been playing C&C Renegade of PC.. a local TV program reviewed both halo and renegade on same episode. I kinda forgot that renagade was "not halo" when I initially got the renegade, I had fun with it.. but when I finally got halo??? I remember "oh, this was the game they hyped the most in that episode!"

On n64 it was Goldeneye and perfect dark

>>343247075
Agreed, but you're still a defensive faggot.
>>
>>343246372
I sure didnt, but my gamecube kept me from running under the school bus
>>
>>343247075
FF, God Of War, Gran Turismo, Ico, SoTC and DMC never got an xbox port

not saying it had a bad library of exclusives, but you missed out on a lot of it was your only system

I love the ps2 slim, I also love the ps2 fat.
My brother has the Xbox slim e and it looks neat
