360 Sunday Games Top 10: Best Games Consoles

"If you ever find yourself on a videogaming website odds are your going to stumble into a raging debate about what console truly is the best, with forums filled to the brim with fans proclaiming why their consoles of choice is superior. This is called the Console Wars and it has been going since before the days of the internet, in fact it started with the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis going head to head way back in the early 90's. This list presents the winners of all those console wars, the ones who are remembered to this day."

I don't have a single favourite console, i enjoyed them all (apart from the DS) so much.

But technically, i think the PS2 is the best. Why?

Massive longevity, the biggest games library a home console has ever had - including some of the best games ever made and great value for money.

The PS1 offered that too, just the PS2 taken it to that next level.

but I agree that the PS2 is TECHNICALLY the best.

Wow, great list. For once I'm impressed. The SNES truly was an amazing console for the time. I was more a Genesis gamer as I loved my arcade games, but as it stands I still have over 100 SNES cartridges. As for the best console of all time? As much as I loved my SNES I'd have to go with the original PlayStation. It brought about the single, largest change to the games industry: the mainstream move to 3D. That single change transformed the entire industry. Much like revitalizing a sacred tree in Okami, the wave was felt throughout the gaming world. The PS2 is truly an awesome console that continued the original PSone's excellence, but it was the PS1 that ushered in modern day gaming. Just one man's opinion of course. Everyone has them. :)

DS outselling the gameboy kinda blows my mind.

all these systems was great. I have owned all except for the atari and the Nintendo DS. and only owned the original Sega gen.

Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country, Super Metroid, Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past, Chrono Trigger, F-Zero and Terraningma. The 16-bit console sucked me in.

thats so crazy haha.

it will never disappear.

The more they try to stop it, the more publicity it gets. The fact is that Yuzu will forever live on torrent and other sites. Nintendo is fighting an uphill battle.

Inverno4d ago

Another 8,500 will take their place. Smh

PRIMORDUS4d ago

There is nothing stopping these people from working on Yuzu clones and sharing them on torrent sites. Nintendo or anyone else cannot do shit about torrents or usenet.

lucasnooker4d ago

lol Nintendo keep fighting this but it never ends. Why do they feel the need to persist? I guess they are in too deep now they have to

Super Mario 64 DS: Remakes Done Right

Super Mario 64 DS was offered as a launch title for the Nintendo DS, a remake of the classic platform game with a few original tricks.

Not with those D-pad controls

CDbiggen6d ago

Needs more appreciation. I never had an N64 so this was what I played. Sure the Yoshi hat mechanic at first is a slog but you unlock Mario and the others for real and then it takes off. Personally I never had an issue with the controls. Can't forget the mini games and the 4 player rumble over download play.

Indeed, as stated in the article there were tonnes of control options and very much a 'take whatever you like, leave the rest' attitude to most of the game's extras.
