    blah, blah, blah... *sigh* i'd hoped this topic wasn't going to turn into ps2-xbox-gamecube next gen war. oh well! :sleep:

    most of the arguements are based on what games will be coming out (or, if you can't read, non-game attributes like DVD playability), rather than the quality of what's available now. obviously this'll limit arguements for the new systems somewhat!

    don't tell me you guys've never picket up an old game boy with tetris and not been able to put it down purely because the game was so addictive?! (i used to have the blocks dropping down when i went to sleep!)

    [deity edity]: now where's that gameboy?... :D

    In my opinion, the SNES was the best ever games console. Simply because of it's versitality. You could connect nearly anything up to it. And play gameboy games in WideScreen (if you have one):D

    Also the games where amazing. Nintendo are the best developer because their consoles do Exactly what it says they do!

    Its a games console, so why should every console now have to play DVD's or CD's or anything like that?

    If you had enough money to buy an X-BOX, then i'm sure you would have a DVD player or at least a Computer with that Function!!!!!

    Nintendo only make their consoles for the sole purpose of playing games, a fact which most makers forget these days. Let's be honest, who plays Cd's on their playstation???

    NINTENDO RULE!!!!

    Well, bugger all these fandangled new things, add my vote to the SNES camp :D I mean it just had so many great games on it (yes yes..for its time) but I still think back on games like Chronotrigger and the Breath of Fire series with fond memories...

    I'd have to go with the Snes too. The Nes was good, and the 64 had some good ideas.

    But the Snes is where everything shined.
