The topic is pretty simple. We'll go through the different generations of gaming, handheld and console, and attempt to pick out our favorite systems from all matchups.

Here's mine:

  • NES vs Master System: NES
  • SNES vs Genesis: SNES
  • Gameboy vs Game Gear vs Atari Lynx: Gameboy
  • 3D0 vs Sega CD vs Sega 32X vs Philips CDi: ...
  • N64 vs Saturn vs PlayStation: N64
  • Gameboy Color vs Nomad vs Neo Geo Pocket vs WonderSwan: Gameboy Color
  • GameCube vs Dreamcast vs PlayStation 2 vs Xbox: GameCube/PS2
  • Gameboy Advance vs N-Gage: Gameboy Advance
  • Nintendo DS vs PSP: Nintendo DS
  • Wii vs PlayStation 3 vs Xbox 360: Xbox 360/PS3
  • Nintendo 3DS vs PS Vita: Nintendo 3DS
  • Wii U vs PlayStation 4 vs Xbox One: PlayStation 4

How about you?

Eh, the two times I do that is more of a heart vs head kind of thing.

Like, the PS2 is flat out a better console than the Gamecube, I can't get around that, and the sheer variety and quantity of games puts, well, anything to shame. But some of my fondest gaming memories are for the Gamecube, playing Smash and Kart in college, or Metroid and Zelda. I can't resolve it, so I make it a tie there and give it to both.

PS3 and Xbox 360 are literally so evenly matched that picking one over the other is a crapshoot (and honestly, which one I pick on any given day depends on whether I woke up feeling more Gears of War and Halo, or more Uncharted and The Last of Us). That one is a legitimate tie, and I go for it as such.

  • Wii U vs PlayStation 4 vs Xbox One: wiiu. it would be the PS4 if i could only have one gaming platform. but...PC. so wii u it is. i dont have a PS4 or X1 due to a lack of content that interests me.

@charizard1605: Dark, but Demon's is unquestionably an easier game, and an easy Souls game is its own reward.

NES (by default)

SNES (no competition, Sega always sucked)

N64 (this was a tough choice because PS1 had a ton of great games but N64 was the best local multiplayer console ever)

PS2 (the best all around gen ever imo because GC and the OG Xbox were great consoles but PS2's library was the GOAT)

PS3 (lets be real, it put 360 to shame from 2009 onward and the Wii was a fvcking joke)

PS4 (WiiU and Xbone are the worst consoles to date from Nintendo and M$)

For handhelds Nintendo obviously wins. The only 2 I've owned have been the GBC and recently picked up a 2DS and both are great.

  • NES vs Master System: NES
  • SNES vs Genesis: Genesis
  • Gameboy vs Game Gear vs Atari Lynx: Gameboy
  • 3D0 vs Sega CD vs Sega 32X vs Philips CDi: Sega CD
  • N64 vs Saturn vs PlayStation: Saturn
  • Gameboy Color vs Nomad vs Neo Geo Pocket vs WonderSwan: Gameboy Color
  • GameCube vs Dreamcast vs PlayStation 2 vs Xbox: Dreamcast
  • Gameboy Advance vs N-Gage: Gameboy Advance
  • Nintendo DS vs PSP: Nintendo DS
  • Wii vs PlayStation 3 vs Xbox 360: Tie Wii/360
  • Nintendo 3DS vs PS Vita: Nintendo 3DS
  • Wii U vs PlayStation 4 vs Xbox One: Tie Wii U/PlayStation 4



    SO I guess you can call me a Sega fanboy... And my "ties" are too close to call. I can admit the 360 (minus rrod) and PS4 are technically "better" than the Nintendo consoles. But you asked for me to pick my "favorite" so the Wii and Wii U made the cut. There are games on both of those consoles I wouldn't want to live without. I could have survived without the PS3 and Xbox One just fine.

NES vs Master System: NES (The NES had a far better game library... it's not even close)

SNES vs Genesis: SNES (Both are among the greatest consoles of all time, but I enjoyed the SNES game library and controller more)

Gameboy vs Game Gear: Game Gear (I never could understand how anybody could bear to use the Gameboy with it's small screen and no backlight. The Gameboy may have had the better games, but the crappy hardware made it unplayable to me)

N64 vs Saturn vs PlayStation: N64 (Most of my greatest gaming memories come from the N64. It was home to some of the most revolutionary games of all time and it was the best console ever for local multiplayer)

GameCube vs Dreamcast vs PlayStation 2 vs Xbox: Gamecube (This is the only battle that is a difficult pick for me. I tend to change my mind quite a bit on if I preferred the Gamecube or the Xbox. During this generation, I think I preferred the Xbox because I felt it brought a breath of fresh air to the console market with it's western influence and it was my go-to console for multiplats, but I feel that the Gamecube's game library has stood the test of time better and I still play Gamecube games whereas I have no interest in playing most games from the original Xbox anymore, so I will say Gamecube, but if you ask me again tomorrow, there is a chance that I could change my answer and say Xbox. The Dreamcast was also great and could have been a contender if it lasted the entire generation. PS2 was definitely last for me this gen.)

Nintendo DS vs PSP: PSP (The PSP was the best handheld ever since in my opinion it was the only handheld that has ever had both great hardware design and a great game library)

Wii vs PlayStation 3 vs Xbox 360: Xbox 360 (The Xbox 360 had the best controller, the best online service, the best OS, the best version of multiplats, it brought indie games and retro gaming back to consoles with Xbox Live Arcade, and it pretty much created the blueprint for modern gaming with it's innovations that everybody else would later copy)

Nintendo 3DS vs PS Vita: Nintendo 3DS (While the Vita has the much better hardware, it's game library is pathetic, so the 3DS definitely wins this one for it's far superior game library)

Wii U vs PlayStation 4 vs Xbox One: Wii U (While the Wii U definitely has some flaws, I have had more fun with Wii U games than I have with the games on the other consoles. Plus, I love being able to play games from the NES, SNES, Genesis, N64, DS, Gamecube, Wii, and Wii U all on this one system.)

Based not only on games but hardware as well (in most cases I selected a platform I spent less time with overall but had a greater overall experience):

  • NES vs Master System: NES
  • SNES vs Genesis: SNES
  • N64 vs Saturn vs PlayStation: PS1
  • GameCube vs Dreamcast vs PlayStation 2 vs Xbox: Xbox
  • Nintendo DS vs PSP: Nintendo DS
  • Wii vs PlayStation 3 vs Xbox 360: X360
  • Nintendo 3DS vs PS Vita: PSVita
  • Wii U vs PlayStation 4 vs Xbox One: PS4

I dunno where to fit PC into the mix, but like usual it would break any meaningful comparison.

I could go either way with the PS3 and 360, but u went with the PS3s best exclusives over basically that the 360 has the ideal version of Bayonetta.

The only time I ever had a favorite was during the Playstation 2 years and below. I preferred the Playstation 2, Playstation, and the SNES over it's competitors at that time. Never gamed on handheld so no favorites there. But with the 360/PS3 I had no favorites, I gamed on both and same with this gen, I game on them all. Although I always wished I had enough money to game on the Neo Geo when it was out way back in the day, they had games I really wanted to play like Samurai Showdown.

Sidenote: Why isn't Turbo Grafx apart of your list?????? You a hater cause I'm sure someone preferred that system lol.

This might look fanboyish, but I've tried and liked pretty much everything. Nothing has ever come close to Nintendo's stuff for me, though. This list doesn't look very honest when it's just Ninty stuff, but believe me, it is.

SNES vs. GENESIS is THE system wars to me.

never cared about ps1 v n64 and really never got into the gen 6 fight till the end after I saw how fugly and lame Splinter cell on ps2 played compared to xbox. (just one example).

I enjoyed watching the xbox 360 complete destroy the ps3 though and I thank Microsoft for seeing into the future to create a home console experience built around connectivity... Sony and Nintendo would still be in the dark ages if not for the 360.

All things considered though, the system wars are dying, but I don't think they'll ever be dead.
