TOP FIVE FAVORITE GAMING CONSOLES IN YOUR LIFE. GO.

In no particular order:
GameCube
SNES
Switch
GBA SP
Turbo Grafx 16...

...

Limiting this to 5 isn’t fair.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

**** me DBS ToP does the whole "Haha we're being lazy with the writing but we acknowledged it therefore it isn't lazy right?"

 

[osby]

Wow i cant believe atlus showed us a teaser that told us to wait 3 months for another teaser only to make us wait another month for more info

We'll get another tease after two weeks from now on.

Then another one after seven days.

Then another one after three and a half days.

And we'll pray Xenon was wrong.

 

[staindgrey]

My top five:

1. New 3DS XL - Biggest library of games with DS/3DS, perfect portable design, love the 3D, will play it forever.
2. Nintendo Gamecube - Apex of my childhood/teenage years, best ergonomic controller, treasure trove of Nintendo's best 3D experiences.
3. Xbox 360 Slim - I have put more time into this console than any other. Massive library and the best controller ever made.
4. Sega Dreamcast - When Sega said "**** it" and let developers do what they wanted. Some of the most unique gaming experiences.
5. SNES - 2D era perfected, with some of the best platformers and best pre-32-bit RPGs ever made.

I say I'm a Sega fanboy, but seeing as to how Nintendo took three of my top five spots, I guess I'm a Nintendo fanatic after all.

TOP FIVE FAVORITE GAMING CONSOLES IN YOUR LIFE. GO.

Ah, screw it. Here's my top 5.

1. Gamecube
2. PS2
3. DS
4. PS4
5. SNES.

The Switch is pretty cool, but I don't know if its top 5 for me. SNES I'm just gonna add since too many of my favorite games originated with that System. Mega Man X, X2, X3, MM7, Super Metroid, Yoshi's Island, Mario World, Demon's Crest, Maximum Carnage ect ect.

PS4 gets on here for having most of the modern games I really liked. Again, Tekken 7, DBFZ, Mega Man 11, Spider-Man, Strider. And that's just the stuff I played. I don't own Devil May Cry 5 yet.

DS has a lot of Killers. Metroid Prime Hunters, Pokemon Black/White, DBZ Super Sonic Warriors, MMZX and MMSF, Jump Ultimate Stars, not to mention you get the entire GBA Library on top of that. DSi can't compete because it removed one of the strongest features.

PS2, I shouldn't have to say much, but so many sick games. Honestly this gen was my favorite for games as a whole, Soul Calibur 2, Tekken 5, Ultimate Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2, X-Men Legends, Mega Man X8, DMC1 and DMC3, Ratchet and Clank, Def Jam Vendetta/Fight for NY.

Gamecube had some of the good games PS2 had, I'm only putting it a bit higher because you can play 4 player without any add-ons. It had ****ing Mario Sunshine, Double Dash and Metroid Prime 1/2. And like the DS, there's a (unfortunately expensive) way to play every GBA game too.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

Should I start my own Hunger Games simulator? I know it has been a bit overdone (very) this week, but the thought came to me.

If anybody is interested, I will take suggestions (forum or non-forum users are acceptable).


I feel better about still using one now.

If ya do, throw Spider-Ham and me in there. Tag me when it’s up, too.

Well it wouldn't be any fun if you could just say "I love all of them".

 

[TheMightyP]

My favorite consoles? Uh...

GameCube
Switch
PS2
DS
3DS and GBA tied

 

[Gentlepanda]

anyway regardless of feMC's identity we're guaranteed to get a new battle theme with it and it's also guaranteed to be an absolute bop

hit me with that it's too late

 

[Cyn]

Well it wouldn't be any fun if you could just say "I love all of them".

I don’t. I down right hate some of them. But 10 would of accommodated me better. Cater to my needs next time. ^_^

I assume this isn’t what you want, though

I’m not making that many today...

Maybe I’ll make 2 more today.

No, no, you aren’t making that many...

But you will...

Can I just hit you, because you never saw that coming?

On topic. Any new thing?

 

[staindgrey]

I don’t. I down right hate some of them. But 10 would of accommodated me better. Cater to my needs next time. ^_^

Okay, I wanna know now.

Cyn is making me do top ten instead, so you all get five more consoles.

Have fun.

 

[Ultomato]

Favourite console?
I barely ever judge consoles, I judge games, sooooo

1. Wii (Metroid Prime Trilogy, Mario Galaxy 2, Skyward Sword)
2. WiiU (Xenoblade Chronicles 1 port, Pikmin 3)
3. DS (Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky, Bowsers Inside Story)
4. XBoX (the REAL Star Wars Battlefront 2)
5. 3DS (Majora's Mask HD, Fire Emblem Fates)


Honestly I'd be content with only having these games in my life

[Alternis]

Let's make it an actual topic for everyone to get in on:

TOP FIVE FAVORITE GAMING CONSOLES IN YOUR LIFE. GO.

Switch
Gamecube
3DS
PC
DS

For me, these all are about libraries. Gamecube was originally my favorite, but the Switch is getting all the series GCN had, and more on top of that. The DS was the console of my childhood so it gets a free pass. PC and 3DS have been consistently great for games overall.

For a sec I thought this ************ was going to shiv someone with a banana. Haven't seen lethal banana action since Giorno did it

 

[Diem]

Switch is probably my all time favorite console because it gave me Mario Odyssey, which was basically my dream game for the longest time.

Plus, the Switch just gives me a "Gamecube" vibe. Nintendo's trying new things again and coming up with all kinds of ideas and surprises none of us even think of, and I love it.

The Gamecube will always be my second most favorite no matter what because Pikmin 2, Paper Mario: TTYD, Wario World, Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour, and Metroid Prime 1 and 2 will always be incredibly amazing and special games to me.

EDIT: Whoops, posted this before seeing staindgrey 's top 5 post. Uh...lemme fix that.

I agree, the Switch feels like the GameCube where every big series is getting a game in one form or another. Well, we're still missing a few (F-Zero, Star Fox, Pikmin, a few others) but we got everything else almost, including Animal Crossing and Metroid.

In a few years, hopefully we'll have what's missing, and everyone will be happy.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Short answer? The internet loves to hate things.

"Omg the 3DS is still a thing?? Only kids play those!" - Every teen and lonely adult trying to sound cool within the internet gaming community.


I understand that 3DS support needs to end for the Switch to thrive. I just don't want it to because the Switch isn't portable to me. It's too fragile with its screen out in the open, and it's too bulky if you carry it around in a protective case. So it sits in my dock, like a home console. My 3DS goes in my bag with me everywhere I go because it's designed to be indestructible. I can toss my bag around or put **** in it without thinking, "wait, is that gonna damage my expensive gaming hardware?"

I'm on my third 3DS and none of my upgrades were due to hardware failure. That's eight years going strong.

With the amount of switches stolen all the time, you would think People thought it was another 3DS

 

[TheMightyP]

Also, unpopular opinion, but the Wii kinda sucked. Not the Wii U, but the Wii did. It had some good games like Mario Galaxy, Zelda TP (which was also on the Gamecube, SS was mixed), Mario Kart, and Brawl, as well as the Prime trilogy + 3 and DKCR, but it had a lot of junk and not very good 3rd party support, as well as a trashy online system, and many games were dated by the time they came out. Plus, motion controls were a novelty, but for many games, it almost didn't work. In fact, the best games for the Wii are the ones that barely used motion control.

 

[staindgrey]

Additional five:

Sega Saturn
Sega Genesis/CD/32X
Nintendo DS
Wii U
Xbox One

If it isn't clear by now that I have never been a Sony guy I'm not sure what to tell you.

 

[Penroze]

[Captain Shwampy]

oh i didnt watch the trailer with sound this morning and i didnt know the girl was talking. The fact she talking pretty much means she's marie 2 lol.

Either way a female protag option would be super diffcult to implement in P5 conisdering its the largest game atlus has worked with by far and having redo all the cutscenes and dialogue

Even if that is true I dont think you can deny that Nintendo was the first company to make a motion controller that actually worked

That Min Min Inkling one looks very similar to Noipoi s style

Let's make it an actual topic for everyone to get in on:

TOP FIVE FAVORITE GAMING CONSOLES IN YOUR LIFE. GO.

5. Gamecube - Amazing catalog of games, and Nintendo's best controller to date
4. Xbox 360 - Such a sleek console, with an amazing library of games, and one of the best controllers ever made.
3. Dreamcast - I was very young when this console came out. As such, I never got one myself until recentlry. But man! SEGA sure knows how to do a swansong Such a great console with some solid games.
2. 3DS - This console has a stellar catalog of games. Not only do you have some amazing new games made specificlly for the 3DS in mind, but you also get an outstanding amount of backward compatible DS and DSiware games.
1. Wii - What can I say? I was a kid during the height of this console, and It's the one that got me into gaming in the first place, and made me love Nintendo in all their glory. Not to mention some amazing games in well established franchises such as Super Mario Galaxy, Super Smash Bros Brawl (I don't care what anyone else thinks), and Mario Kart Wii. And of course, I can't forget to mention the game that got us sold on the Wii in the first place, Wii Sports. Sure, it was basically a tech demo, but darn it! It was a good tech demo that did it's job, and was a blast to come back to. The 3DS normally would've gotten first place, but due to nostalgia, and the fact that it's reason I'm even here, right now, writing this thing, I have to give it to the WII.

 

[Ultomato]

Laughs in the best game ever made

Spoiler: Objectively

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I haven't seen any banana snipes during flight in a while so no it's been since Giorno killed a dude with a banana

Plus, motion controls were a novelty, but for many games, it almost didn't work. In fact, the best games for the Wii are the ones that barely used motion control.

That's why it'll never be one of my favorite consoles despite the fact that it's the only console I ever waited outside in the cold to get on opening day.

Twilight Princess was better on the Gamecube. Donkey Kong Country Returns was better on 3DS. The two best parts of Prime Trilogy were Gamecube games. Galaxy and Galaxy 2, IMO, are kind of overrated. MKWii is my least favorite Mario Kart. Like, the Wii had Brawl and Sonic Colors and FE: Radiant Dawn and the Trauma Team games, but it also had a whole bunch of **** and most of its first parties are outshined by their GC or Wii U games.

 

[TheMightyP]

Even if that is true I dont think you can deny that Nintendo was the first company to make a motion controller that actually worked

I'll give them that. It worked well when the programmers actually spent more than 5 minutes on intergrating motion control into their games, but that's the issue, not a lot of devs (who weren't Nintendo) did that, leading to borderline unplayable games.

I am happy on how far Gyro and motion controls advanced though.

Excuse me, but the Wii had Kirby's Return to Dreamland, Kirby's Epic Yarn, Wario Land Shake It, Sonic Colors, and Wario Ware: Smooth Moves.

Hot take: What if the FeMc is an echo fighter instead of an alt of Joker?

Unlikely but eh.

 

[staindgrey]

Atari 2600

XB1
PS2

NES

I mean, I kinda have to.

Also we should play something on XB1 sometime.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Okay, I wanna know now.

Cyn is making me do top ten instead, so you all get five more consoles.

Have fun.

Xbox One: Because Killer Instinct, plus all the third parties I've pumped into it
Xbox 360: My only console for a long time. A lot of memories were made on that thing
Nintendo Switch: Portability and Smash Ultimate
PS3: The MGS Legacy Collection and PlayStation All-Stars
Nintendo Wii: First Ever game console I owned. Lot's of memories. Even if I mostly played kind of sub-par licensed games back then

Honorable Mention: PS4. Sorry bud, but the only game I bought for you that I 100% adore is the N. Sane Trilogy, and that's on Switch now. OG Spyro turned out not to be my cup of tea, SFV, FEXL and KOF14 all were kind of just okay, and I still havn't gotten around to buying many of your exclusives that interest me like God of War and Uncharted

Okay well PS4 makes the list at Number 6 now.
3DS. It could play my entire DS library and was my portable of choice for years and years until is crapped out on me at the end of last year. The fact that it's my only console ever to actually stop working and need replacing knocks is down a few spots to number 7.
Nintendo Wii U: I'm running out of console's I've owned now. And the Bayonetta series can only do so much for a console at this point. So Wii U goes at number 8.

Some may say these last two don't count, but if they don't then I can only do a top 8.
Atari Flashback: A plug-n-play console with a bunch of old Atari ROMS on it. Me and my sister used to play it all the time. We would work together and try to puzzle out Adventure and we would sing What's Opera Doc while playing, except we would say "Kill the Dwagon!" instead of "Kill the Wabbit!"
Namco Plug & Play Game Pac-Man: The REAL first video game system I ever owned. Still have it and still play it sometimes. Not only did this thing have Pac-Man, but also Bosconian, Rally-X, Galaxian, and Dig Dug! God I played Dig Dug for hours on end.
