Glad to see SNES take the top! It really is timeless. Graphics and gameplay that even the youngbloods can appreciate today (still influencing modern indies!), but we aging gamers hold such fond memories of experiencing firsthand. Man, what a time to grow up.

I still hold my NES and Gameboy in the top 3... I still love playing them today and were so groundbreaking for me, but I completely understand that it doesn't hold the same timelessness for everyone that the SNES has. My 6 year old daughter adores Super Mario World, but doesn't get into the original SMB as much.

Good list!

Isn't that the truth.
I find the best Nintendo console seems to always be the one you grew up with.

Some younger people now swear that the Wii is the best console ever while I don't hold it in as high regard for me it was super Mario bros 1 2 and especially 3 that defined my entry point into gaming.

I kind of wish I had a SNES also I didn't have much exposure to it in the 90s going from NES to mega drive and having friends who mostly did the same I only got to play it a handful of times I liked it but wasn't until I was way older I discovered stuff like earthbound and really understood clicked with it.

For me…it would be

SNES
N64
Nintendo DS
Game boy
Switch
NES
GameCube
Wii

Where do you have the Wii U besides the bin

BeHunted588d ago

Wii? That sold like hotcakes here in the UK. Difficult to find for ages.

Couldn't agree more with number 1.

GamingSinceForever588d ago

1. N64
2. NES (insane library, but the worst console design ever)
3. Super Nintendo
4. Switch

Profchaos588d ago (Edited 588d ago )

For me it's
1 NES
2 switch
3 SNES
4 wii
5 n64
6 GameCube
7 wii U

I cut my teeth gaming on the NES and then owned a mega drive followed by ps so I don't have the same nostalgia for the SNES as most people but pretty much most systems after the fact are interchangeable depending on my mood there's something amazing on each system even the Wii U.

Think that rumor that they'll still make a new console but at a profit at $1000 will be true though. The series consoles will remain their cheap alternative throughout next gen I would say. Keep in mind that game pass and pretty much going 3rd party is their main focus. They want to bring xbox everywhere.

If they don't maintain some kind of console presence, I think they will lose gamepass subscribers and just become a 3rd party publisher who eventually sells everything off

Xbox games are releasing on all platforms. Who needs this hardware? PS or PC is all you need

Flewid63818h ago

I've never owned an Xbox in my life and I have GamePass.

thorstein17h ago

The only Xbox I owned was the 360. I have gamepass for my PC.

GamerRN12h ago

Majority of Gamepass users are currently on console...

Even if they could get it down to $800 for a box that can run with comparable performance to a PS6 (at, say $200 cheaper) the population of people willing to buy such a thing would be so limited.
It would be the worst of both worlds.

A slow, painful and public death too.
