Favourite Console

So what's your favourite console and why?


For me it's the original PlayStation, it's what really turned me into a gamer.
I've always loved games and it was really hard for me to pick the PlayStation over the Sega Mega Drive (Genesis). 

However, the jump from 16-bit to 3D graphics was truly insane, I doubt we'll ever see as big of a shift as we did during that era. 

For better or worse, it also had a thriving piracy scene. A scene which I wrote an article about here. Which on the surface sounds awful, but I actually believe it helped gaming in the long run.

I think I have to go with the SNES, it was a big part of my childhood. I love the sprites and music of that generation.


I still play the same SNES console these days that I had then!

Mine would have to be the Wii, because that's the one I grew up with the most, and the one I have the most fond memories of!
