Genesis because Iris heart makes my PP hard
PS1 because it had no decent competition
PS2 because Xbox wasn't good yet
360 because it's the best console of all time
Skip 8th gen
Don't want any handhelds.

You guys get 2 handhelds. Make use of that.

Genesis, N64, PS2, Wii, PS4, Switch and I guess a PSP cause I'm not sure what a Vita even has on it. I chose Genesis over SNES cause I assume the Switch could get NES and SNES stuff on it, and I never owned one before but it seems to have some fun stuff on it.

Travel back in time and grab an NES rather than any 8th gen console
GBA and PSP

I see a lot of people skipping in this thread, You can't skip as in this scenario you get the console for free.

samefagging here because i didn't put it in the post

i really dont like the 7th and 8th gens so far, none of the consoles are terribly amazing and it really shows as the era where consoles turned into gimped PCs

While I find the shitposting funny no PC either. It's back catalog is too broken.

Oh. Then uh, I dunno. 360 for 7th and PS4 for 8th, I guess.

Xbox One - use backwards compat to get 360

No backwards compatibility. Ports are fine though.

Xbox One - get to plug in cable box, idk
Switch - get shitton of wii u ports

Genesis

That's all you need

for the handhelds, gba and switch

Are remasters like Guardian Heroes on 360 included in the library?

SNES

Any other choices are objectively wrong

Wrong

psp=gameboy advance sp>gameboy advance
pc>360=ps3>wii
pc=ps4>switch(minus 1st party toddlershit)>xbone>switch first party onionstoddlershit

I appreciate your creativity but emulators fall into the same category as VC. I put these rules in to make sure each console was judged by it's own library and not the library of what it's trying to emulate.

Oh shoot you already said that here In that case
Genesis (if I get to use the Sega CD, else SNES)
N64
Gamecube
Xbox 360
Wii U

Add ons count as the console you're adding onto. So all sega cd and 32x games count as genesis.

I should also state that add ons that play other consoles games like the game boy player on the gamecube count as emulation thous is banned.

>360 because it's the best console of all time
based brainlet

based choice

Not him but it was a great console. Too bad I missed out on the golden days as I got the console late into it's life span(2013).

Neo Geo
PS1
6th gen are all too good to decide
Wii
8th gen all suck
3DS and PSP assuming homebrew is allowed

I guess I'm now gay.
Homebrew is not allowed.
Neo Geo was also not in the 4th gen list.

>NES
>Genesis
>Saturn
>Gamecube
>PS3
>Wii U

This is assuming I'm allowed to play multiplats on PC

SNES
N64 (less games, but more that are worth playing nowadays)
PS2
Wii (this one's tough, because all 7th gen consoles kind of sucked)
PS4

>portables
Neo Geo Pocket Color
Switch

Why did you exclude the TG-16, Neo Geo Pocket Color, and a few other systems?

Multiplats on pc are not allowed. This is strictly about consoles as PC has too much back catalog to even be considered fair.

the winners
>NES
>SNES
>PS1
>PS2
>PS3
>PS4

handhelds
>Nomad
>GBA

No, fuck you and your rules. I play on PC and only bother with consoles for games not available on PC.

SNES
N64
PS2
X360
hard pass on all of them
DS

Because this is about the big guys, not the little ones.

>Homebrew is not allowed
Probably GBA and 3DS then.
>Neo Geo was also not in the 4th gen list
Fuck the list.

I'm a zoomer who grew up with an snes,n64,gamecube,wii,xbox,xbox360,ps3,gba and ds cause my older sister spoiled me rotten.

Gamecube vs PS2 is such a hard fucking choice for me.

You saying shit about my cell architecture, also if you dont like psvita your actually retarded

OP here, not a sonyfag. Your selection is fine and there's nothing wrong with that. It only becomes an issue once it gets to pic related level.
Chill.

>SNES with a Genesis converter
It literally doesn't though
That SNES adapter is just a megadrive inside a cart and all it does is take the controller input and power from the SNES

I mean't you're not a sonyfag. miss typed.

I feel like I would have liked the vita if it had more exclusive games that weren't JRPGs and I learned about SD2Vita before the console was dead

SNES
PS1
Gamecube
PS3

This was pretty tough, but I went with the systems I can play my most favorite games with.

give me all the nintendo shit bitch
GBA and 3ds Lol

I have one

It works just fine for me

SNES
PS1

PS3

GBA

If you couldn't guess, I really like JRPGs

Then why did you include the Saturn (which sold LESS than the TG-16), the Wii U, the Game Gear, or the Vita? All of those BOMBED.

His dumb ass included the Dreamcast, too lol. He just doesn't know any console companies other than Nintendo, Sega, Sony, and Microsoft and he's trying to make excuses for being retarded.

PS2
i don't even need to know your gay ass rules
fuck you

Because back then SEGA was one of the big guys even though they fell on hard times. It's why I didn't leave out the Wii U because clearly Nintendo is still going strong and while sega wasn't able to recover after the dreamcast it really wasn't entirely their fault the dreamcast flopped.
Fuck you too I guess.

You didn't even read the entire post did you?

360
Wii U Hey I liked some of the games exclusive to it
Nintendo DS and PS Vita, since DS also can make use of GBA games so I technically can make use of that library as well, and same sort of thing with Vita, only digitally instead of physically.

using backwards compatability is haram ITT

I did read the whole thing

I'm letting you know mine works fine on a vanilla SNES

Blast processing and all

>Choices start with 4th generation.
Why? Fuck you the Sega Master System still sold about 10 million consoles and TurboGrafx was meant to originally compete with NES. Even then I still choose NES for obvious reasons.

Genesis
PS1
PS2
PS3
PS4
GBA/GBC

Again what is your problem here? GBC was released in 98, well into the fifth gens life cycle. Game Gear in 1990 so you make no sense here.

This thread fucking sucks.

>back then SEGA was one of the big guys

They had ONE successful system, you literal retard. You might as well include the Jaguar or the Lynx because "Atari used to be successful".

I loved my Dreamcast. It was a shame what happened. So many good options if you enjoyed arcade games. Being able to play MvC2, SF3S, Virtua On, Triggerheart Excelica, SoulCal, Power Stone 2, and House of the Dead 2 at home was fucking crazy good times.

>>Handhelds: GBA/Game Gear/PSP/DS/3DS/PS Vita/Switch

Where the fuck is the Gameboy and Gameboy Color?

GBA can play all game boy and gameboy color games.

>I didn't leave out the Wii U because clearly Nintendo is still going strong

And yet you left out the GB and GBC, which outsold over half of the consoles that you listed.

SNES
N64

You explicitly said backwards compatibility doesn't count.

Goddamn I've been btfo'd.

WII U (i would say switch though)
PSP, otherwise i like every nintendo handheld.

Faggot, ps3, ps4 and especially v*Ta are the worst. PS1, PS2 and PSP are best in their catagory though (some could argue about ds, but they never had both ds and psp, with psp being much better as both a console and a mediadevice).

>doesn't say I can't mod
Xbox for 6th and I can emulate all previous gens

>1. PC
>2. PC
>3. PC
>4. PC
>5. PC
>6. PC
>7. PC
>8. PC

I stated later in the thread you can't mod as it's emulation. btw game boy and GBC are now choices as I was btfo'd about 5 post earlier about that.

I made a list here yet pc is still what i prefer+handhelds. I only have ps2 and wii (and switch if that counts)

Here the officialâ„¢ non-brainlet list:
