Mine was the Super Nintendo, without any doubt the console I played the most and spent the most money on.

Spent over 3 grand on it, with well over 100 games.

Addams Family Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt
Cybernator
Donkey Kong Country
Killer Instinct
Mortal Kombat
Illusion of Time
Pop N Twinbee
Sparkster
Super Castlevania IV
Starwing
Street Fighter 2
Sunset Riders
Super Mario Kart
Super Metroid
Super Probotector
Super Punch Out
Super Mario World
Super Mario All-Stars
Super Turrican 2
The Secret of Mana
Legend of Zelda
Yoshi's Island
Zombies

PS3 60GB model

It has the ability to play PS1, PS2 and PS3 games as well as DVDs and Blurays

so i can play most of my favorite games

MGS4SnakeRulez · 27-11-2012, 17:22

N64.

As much as I love the PlayStation systems, N64 has a special place in my heart, Some of my best all time memories are playing games like Goldeneye and Mario Kart 64 with mates.

scooby1970 · 27-11-2012, 18:01

I'm a huge Sega fan, and up until the last few years I would have easily said the Megadrive or Dreamcast. However, I think my vote has to go to PS3. I have had it longer and played it more than anything I have owned in the last 35 years.

It has the added ability of me playing my favourite PS1 and PS2 titles as well, plus all the goodies that are on PSN. By far my favourite gaming a system ever... followed by the Sega machines.

Sega Master System

mojobrew · 27-11-2012, 18:20

The real answer is PS3 but avoiding that boring answer mine was the Amiga 500+ for sure.

Davonator · 27-11-2012, 19:33

N64

It excelled in single and multiplayer games, and it was released at a special time when everything Nintendo and Rare created became an instant classic. Also I think the 64 controller is still perhaps the best designed controller ever.

killthedirector · 27-11-2012, 20:18

ps2. even though my ps3 is backwards compatible for both the ps1 and ps2.

MartinImber · 27-11-2012, 20:21

PS3 if not allowed that PC

drabble · 27-11-2012, 20:23

NES, can't remember how long I spent on Super Mario Bros 3.

Dandem · 27-11-2012, 20:34

I felt like the Gamecube was severely underrated. It was a quality system, developers just never made the games for it.

Brigon · 27-11-2012, 20:50

Amiga 500 I guess.
Gods
Secret of Monkey Island & Monkey Island 2
Apidya
Walker
Syndicate
The Chaos Engine
Flashback
Sensible World of Soccer
Ultimate Soccer Manager
Moonstone
Speedball 2
Liberation:Captive II
Frontier: Elite 2
Lemmings
Pirates
Pinball Dreams
Eye of the Beholder
Populous II
Alien Breed
Super Cars 2
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
Superfrog

That system had a lot of original IP's. I still think a Chaos Engine HD remake with splitscreen and online multiplayer would sell really well.

Vast_Girth · 27-11-2012, 21:03

Atari STe

Alan1981 · 27-11-2012, 21:30

It had to be the ps1 just for ff7 alone.

Rich_L · 27-11-2012, 21:41

Amiga 500 and then the 1200.

Some of the happiest days of my life.

Scrubber · 27-11-2012, 21:46

N64 by far.

Great list of games, some of my favourites in that list

I love that you mentioned Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt, nobody ever seems to mention it.

Mine is the SNES too.

Tush_91 · 27-11-2012, 22:29

Gameboy colour.

Bester · 27-11-2012, 23:29

1. 360
2. PS2
3. Megadrive

barracuda91 · 27-11-2012, 23:30

Difficult one. I think the Gamecube followed by the N64.

soran · 28-11-2012, 01:19

I still fire up my Amiga A1200 from time to time, and luckily I have most of my games for it stored on its massive 540mb hard drive

as a lot of my 3.5 inch floppys have got corrupted over time.

macethedon · 28-11-2012, 05:54

Game Boy Advance SP, played Pokemon Sapphire til my fav pokemons were at lvl 100, was fricking addicted to that game.

tysonstorm · 28-11-2012, 08:44

My old Amiga 500, then my trusty PS2. So many great games on both machines. Something the current gen could really learn from. Fancy graphics are not the be all and end all.

Gazza_ · 28-11-2012, 09:09

Xbox 360

Monkey Munch · 28-11-2012, 09:31

My head is telling me my 360 as this gen has been the longest and honestly I don't think I have played so many great titles bearing in mind I have been playing games for about 30+ years.

But in my heart it's different. Only the other day, I took out my Dreamcast and gazed at it's beauty. This machine (Esp with Phantasy Star Online) not only introduced me to the wonders of new gaming genres it gave me a glimpse of online gaming.

Everything about that machine was so far ahead of it's time it was destined to fail ... but for me it still holds a very special place in my gaming heart.
