Nintendo's best console

[_joshuaTurbo]

I voted SNES-

Heres how I would rate them in order-

1. SNES
2. NES
3. GC
4. Wii
5. N64

Probably too soon to rate the Wii, but its already better than the N64.

Matter of fact if you would consider the Virtual Boy a console- I would rate that ahead of the N64 as well!

Mainly because The VB tried something original, and the N64 had all the momentum in the world carrying over from the SNES.  And it dropped the ball BIG TIME!!!  It was SUCH A LET DOWN!!

The GameCube was a step in the right direction for nintendo, but had a hard time shaking off the stigma that the N64 left on the Nintendo name.

Whoever it was that was badmouthing the Gameboy player is completely and utterly wrong in every aspect.  There is no blurriness, it's not emulation, and there is no choppiness that isn't present when playing on an actual GBA.

Agreed it's the reason i still have my, GC.

Thanks to that device it has let me get more use out my cube.

Plus it save me the trouble of getting a GBA... since i'm not a fan of handhelds.

Gameboy Player for president!

Oh yeah, I almost forgot to mention the best part of the GBPlayer: the eject mechanism. Its f*cking fantastic! The eject on the US SNES is really springy feeling and tends to make the games fly out. The PAL and Japanese SNES have badass eject buttons. But Even those dont compare to the GBPlayers eject. BEST EJECT MECHANISM on any console, past present and future.

What the? The Game Boy Player doesn't have an eject mechanism. It's phuggin' impossible to get the carts out of that thing, I have to lift the whole GC up in order to reach for that "handle" thing on the underside of the cartridge.

PS: GBP sucks. But I guess it's mostly because the GBA itself sucks. Pretty much not a single game worth playing on that system, no. Why? The graphics and sound is painful to watch/hear. Oh, and because of the blurry picture.

I quite liked the GBA player for the gamecube..


my old gamecube set up...which I honestly thought it was 'cute'  the broadband adapter, ascii keyboard etc

I don't have them anymore but ever since PSO fell victim to hackers I honestly had no reason to keep a gamecube after that.. all sold off on ebay XD. 



my old ASCII keyboard for gamecube.. had it shipped to the uk via EMS from hong kong was bloody expensive and was slightly pissed having the box getting slight damage in post!  and those keys on that thing were tiny...



and personally I think the SNES was the best mostly because I thought that companies like Konami, Square etc were at their best

You'd be surprised how many people have no clue about the eject. I didnt even know myself until reading it online. Careful though, its capable of firing a gamepak halfway across the room if you dont respect its power

That sounds more fun than actually playing games on it...

[FM-77]

NICE! Thanks for the info! Works great! That switch was huge, how could I ever miss it? Oh wait, I know....



I will need to move the SNES a bit so that I can press that eject switch whenever I need it. Oh wait... that's going to be a bit of a problem...






Hmm, but that's okay, I'll just move the PCE as well...






Well damn. Well, the Saturn's not so wide. Just slide it over a little...

Seldane - why don't you send that Saturn to me?  Problem solved with room to spare! 

[FM-77]

Well, it's a PAL system. Not much need for that in your region, eh? Pleease let me keep it. :-"

[grahf]

Curse those unstackable systems! And curse you PAL guys with your normal looking SNESs. Anyone want to trade a fresh american SNES for a Pal system?

[Necromancer]

All right Seldane, if you insist.

Just get a SNES2... It's the same design as the Super Famicom Jr. but with the US logo and color scheme (and of course is a NTSC-using US playing gaming machine monster).
The SFC Jr. is bottom right, SNES2 is bottom left:


Also, the SNES2 will not yellow over time. FTW!

[grahf]

No svideo output on the evil minis . Ive owned a SFC junior in the past, as well as a mini or two (one of which became a portable). I'm currently using a Super Famicom with the cart slot widened a bit to fit US carts, like i've seen some of you PAL guys do to play US games.
