Remember when I actually used to make games? Me neither.

While this thread may be very controversial, like when I said Chrono Trigger was a mediocre game, I'm still going to post a Console Debate thread. At least Kentona only said "SNES" without further opposition.

Civilized debate, but no "FAEGUT SNES IS THE FUCKING FAGOLA CONSOLE, CALCULATOR FTWWWW"
First vote!
Lol, gave it to the ps1, since it's what started me out in the world of gaming, and a ton of epic games that I find are better than heaps of ones from this generation, existed only on that console. (Also, just throwing this out there, but I'm anti-Wii U..there's literally nothing about that console that interests me.)
The numbers say DS if you include handhelds. PS2 if not. My favorite is NES.
The kid in me wants to say SNES, but the PS1 was pretty much the king of gaming and it introduced us to a ridiculous amount of classic characters and franchises.
The SNES, because it is pretty much the acme of console gaming and introduced us to and/or refined a ridiculous amount of classic and memorable characters and franchises.

The PC.
Well, there's no option for that because it's not technically a console. But still, a great gadget.

Neither are handhelds.
The SNES mainly because I still have mine and break it out more often than my PS1 or PS2, even though I have more games for them. (I have a total of 5 games on my SNES - Terranigma, Breath of Fire II, Lufia II, Legend of Zelda and Super Mario All-Stars - compared to my other console games. I have more games for my Classic Gameboy... and I don't even have a working one any more!)
I own most of these console, and I love them all.

But Dreamcast is my god. U_U
Incidentally, you forgot to list Xbox.
and Neo Geo, and PC engine, and... XD whatever

Why no one loves virtua boy???
PC supremacy 4 lyfe. It has:

- The most games. There's been games made for it since before the NES existed. It also incorporated the games of other platforms into itself through emulation.

- Moddability. Take those games the PC can play and apply mods or patches which can improve or drastically change them. Sure the NES has the original six Mega Man games but it doesn't have Rockman No Constancy, Wily's Dream Machine, or Rock Man 4 Infinity unless you get a writable NES cart and write the game to it.

- Keyboard and mouse. Twin stick shooting sucks. In fact being able to use any controller on the PC and wire it into any game. Nowadays I play NES and SNES games with a PS3 controller because it is more comfortable to use and wireless. Adapters may be necessary though which costs more $$$.

- Looks the best. None of this pseudo 1080 resolution by upscaling 720 output, you tell it to output at native res and it'll do it (including higher resolutions like 2560x1440). You can change the graphic quality in most games too in the options settings to try and reduce lag or make it look better if your hardware can handle it. Also turn off shitty bloom filters. Hell, between playing the three Warriors Orochi games on PC, PS2, and PS3 respectively the one with the least amount of pop-in enemies was, of course, Warriors Orochi 1 which I played on PC.

e:
If you're listing what was forgotten the Master System isn't on there either

I know right? I hate playing FPS games on a console too, unless it's something like Doom where you don't even have to aim.

Also, I hate emulation these days. It's for the poor and hoboish.
I can't really edit the poll anymore, so no PC or Xbox option unless an admin magically edits it.

I feel nerdy...
but I don't like blood and gore, so it suits my needs.

I also have 2 Gamecubes, 3 DSs, a 3-DS, a WII, a PC (with emulators for SNES, N64, GB Color, GBA), a SNES, and a N64. As you can see I'm a NINTENDO fan. It fits above criteria. And yes, I have emulators and the actual consoles for SNES and N64 (and the Visual Boy Advance).

I believe Emulators are good to have. I use them to play games that are outdated. Otherwise there funness is wasted.

PC, PS1, PS2, and GBA get my votes. Why isn't this poll multiple-answer and why was the PC not included? (*´Д`)
PS3 gets my vote :P

But I also like GBA, SNES, NES, PS1, PS2, PSP, Vita. :D

And calculator ? Maybe even Iphone would be better. ;)
PS2 > SNES in terms of progressing the industry IMO

PC is technically not a handheld or home console or something.
It's a computer. NEITHER IS CALCULATOR A CONSOLE BUT SEXUAL INTERCOURSE WITH LOGIC BECAUSE IT'S TOO AWESOME.

Gah, I guess I need to make a Console Debate V2 at some point.

Nothing reveals Humanity so well as the games it plays. A game of betrayal, where the most suspicious person is brutally murdered? How savage.

Does nobody have fond memories of the gamecube?
Anyone?
