just so you know (if you dont), game & watch, GB, and DS are handhelds, not consoles. but that would make your question hard to ask ^_^'

It may be a handheld not a console, but the gameboy pocket... I remember getting it with a super mario land 1 & 2 bundle... so many years of joy

yes i know but i decided to put all nintendo gaming systems out to date home based or handheld so if your favorite console was the gba (sp, micro, regular) you could pick those i didnt put the redesigns of consoles however because they are essentially the same system in a different package

SNES is by farr the best system, even by today's standards because compared to any other console it had

A. the most games
B. the most quality & epic games


The amount of hours you could put into quality SNES gaming versus N64 is like 10x more considering epic games like: Chrono Trigger, Zelda: Link to the Past, Harvest Moon, Seikenen Densentsu 3, Super Mario World, Super Mario RPG, Super Mario World 2, Mario Kart, Top Gear, and more.

Gamecube

I vote Gamebube because not only did I get hours and hours of fun out of my Gamecube games but I got hours and hours of fun out of my GB, GBC and GBA advance games too, which I can play on my Gamecube using the GB Player .

However, Wii will beat it .

P.S: This was a hard decision to make as I also got hours and hours of fun out of my SNES and N64 too.

I gotta go with snes. I grew up on it but besides that the games were great. Back then they werent worried about filling a game with realistic shadows and all this other bullshit. They didnt have much to work with (as far as graphics go) so all their effort went into making the game fun, by making a good storyline or fun gameplay (many times both)

Yeah but it couldn't play GBA games could it ?

Like I said this was a hard decision to make as I loved the N64 and SNES. And I also love my DS Lite.
