I made the same mistake. :'(
I voted for the DS, but I would have also voted PS3 (but only the earlier models capable of playing PS2 games goowan).
Unfortunately, I've only experienced very little of the supposed excellence of the SNES. :'(

A videogame console meaning the term for any dedicated videogame.....system? baddood;
the PS2 is overrated
A fully backward compatible PS3. [:'(]
SNES/Gameboy Colo[u]r
SNES because it's amazing.
N64 because nostalgia goggles and there were a lot of missed gems that people didn't play due to bad reviews.
SNES
I don't even feel like exploiting the opportunity for a second vote. Nothing else comes close to the SNES for me.

I dunno, I said PS2 and GBA but that's me. The PS2 is STILL getting new games (albiet slowly now) and I still play a bunch of my GBA games like Golden Sun and Advance Wars.

Like seriously it had like maybe 20 GREAT games, and that was it. The rest were pretty mediocre.

I agree with Mongler. spam;
i also agree with him on his votes
Honestly, I don't remember the N64 being all that great. The only games I remember for it are Hey You, Pikachu! and Pokémon Stadium.
I also wasn't fond of its controller.

They are great, but I think its nostalgia goggles mostly. Hell even our list of great games agrees with me. There's like 7 games for the N64 and like 20 for everything else

Eh, I loved the PlayStation. In retrospect, to me it was better than the N64 as a console. It did have a pretty good library as well - especially RPG wise - but at the same time its games may not stand out as much as the very few games on the N64 that did stand out.

I could see that... I think when I had my N64 I bought fewer games so the percentage of high quality games I owned sort of sticks in my memory... like every game I played on it would be fun unlike the playstation which I played some more duds for

Persona 3/4, .hack series (original and GU), god of war series (1/2 anyway), ace combat 4/5 (and non numbered ones that I don't remember).
Granted I got into the PS2 in the second half of its life cycle, but I have more games that I loved for it than the N64. (SF64, Jet Force Gemini, Mario Kart 64, Ocarina of Time) Yes there is Banjo Kazooie/Tooie, but I'm not very good at platformers.
i can't decide
but anyone who votes for the ps3 or any xbox is rly stupid

n64 kind of blows why is everyone saying n64
while I still think it was a great console, I have to agree that it "kind of blows" as far as variety of games goes. Nintendo was way too focused on 3D and didn't see the potential of a console that could play even better 2D games.
granted, Sony also had this problem for the most part, but at the same time, look at the continuation of the MMX series, in beautiful 2D. look at Symphony of the Night, goddamn what a gorgeous game. look at Street Fighter 3. you get the picture.
as a result of the 64's over-reliance on one type of game (3D platformers), i feel like the console just didn't reach the potential of the generation. the Banjo games are like Mario 64 is like DK64 is like Conker. there was no Metroid. there were nearly no decent rpgs. there were no shmups.
i really feel like the playstation was the best console that generation, even though i didn't own one at the time. nostalgia or not, the n64 is just too stale in the game variety department.
Quote from: Lain on July 25, 2010, 08:46:25 PM
the Banjo games are like Mario 64 is like DK64 is like Conker.
no it's more like banjo, dk64, and conker are rare's shitty attempts at recreating and cashing in on the success of mario 64 but whatever happydood;
i'm thinkin' maybe ds and ps2
but then there's n64 and snes...fuck befuddlement

and many of us love those "shitty attempts", myself included (well, except dk64, that game is kinda boring), but i was basically just talking about the most popular of that over-done genre on the n64
i do realize that there were at least SOME 2d/2.5d games like kirby 64 and yoshi's story, but they weren't really up to snuff with what capcom and other groups were doing on the ps1
and of course, third party support in general is something that the n64 just drew the short straw for
what did the ps1 have that's so great? besides sotn and rpgs
Along with what Kaz said, the rare 3rd party support on the N64 is still apparent today, as even on the Gamecube and now the Wii...it's rare to get a "decent" 3rd Party game.
Quote from: Nyerp on July 25, 2010, 08:59:46 PM
what did the ps1 have that's so great? besides sotn and rpgs
those right there are already better than most of the n64's library if you ask me
but i have other favorites as well, like the resident evil series, some mega man games, various capcom fighting games...
most of the best games on the system are rpgs of course...or sotn. but i dunno, i just feel that those were better than most n64 games.
but you probably won't agree since you don't like video games.
haha you got that right! :D
but srsly those games aren't that better than n64's library like OoT, MM, sm64, mk64 and shit i can't think of anymore

well yeah most of them aren't better than oot or mm, i'll give you that...even though oddly enough you just said in another thread that you don't like mm that much.

lol thats still less than 20 games bros.
Wow how did I forget about Wave Race. Which also reminds me of another good N64 game, 1080 Snowboarding. You can unlock a penguin for a snowboard. baddood; Controls were a bit odd, but it was still fun.
Also Excitebike 64's desert mode was fun. Basically having some campfires which were the suggested route and nothing else other than endless dunes to do tricks off of. Then it also had a decent track editor and a 3D version of the original Excitebike.
Also also, Mario Tennis/Golf. The ability to use the GameBoy/N64 controller adapter thingy and import your GBC created character into the N64 games to use was a great customization ability, as well as that online tournament Mario Golf had with Nintendo Power that used a really long character password after the end of a round for scoring purposes.

Then you could throw in things like Kirby, Yoshi's Story, Mario Golf, Mario Tennis, Mario Party, 1080 Avalanche, Blast Corps, Conker, Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire, Doom, Sin and Punishment: Successor to the Earth, Diddy Kong Racing, etc.
still less than 20 because i would only argue that about 15 maybe of those are necessary to be hxc
