I guess I'll chose the N64 since the PS1 was omitted for no valid reason. Donkey Kong 64 is still one of my favorite games even today.
What is your favorite retro console?

There's a very good reason why it was omitted - the OP wanted to give the N64 a chance. ;O;
Sega Genesis.
I loved that thing to death and back and still do. I've got it sitting on my shelf right now, modded a few weeks ago for composite video and stereo audio out. In the coming weeks I plan to mod it with a (probably internal) RGB to component circuit, then maybe overclock it and also add a standalone audio amp to it.

There's only 5-10 of'em, you'd have to have really poor memory not to remember a list of games shorter than your average grocery shopping list. ;O;There's a very good reason why it was omitted - the OP wanted to give the N64 a chance, to show off its kick ass games that are very memorable.

Couldn't finish my grocery list for the PS1 section.
SNES by a long shot of the systems you listed. But if you're going to include Saturn, then PSX, Dreamcast, and Gamecube should also be on there. And I do seriously love the Gamecube. So underappreciated, but so full of awesome. I know it's not in keeping with popular opinion, but I would have a hard time choosing between SNES and Gamecube, and I was around for both of those generations when they happened.

Your gross underestimation of the PS1's library has me scratching my head, but I don't generally engage in List Wars, so I won't be the one correcting you.

Nah, i have played far more ps1 games. I know more of its library then you think i do but as an opinion I just like the N64 because of its memorable games as listed above that i grew up with even though Ps1 had some other great games such as Metal gear, Tomb Raider, Megaman, Twisted Metal, ect. (And even some Japanese only games)
A-ha! T'was trickery, I knew it was! EXPOSED! ;O;
Anywho, the PS1 has Metal Gear Solid, so by definition PS1 > N64, no question about it. Then again, back in the day I skipped both because PC Master Race - I only returned to consoles when the Gamecube came along.

I was never a really big fan of Metal gear, and what solely hooked me on to the N64 was one of my favorite games of all time before it was rehashed and made almost as much as Street fighter 4. That's right that game was The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of time. I guess the reason i like the console so much is because i have spent alot of my gaming on that machine but boy did i enjoy frogger for the PS1.
The thing about the PS1 is not many games hold up well today... The graphics just make you want to rip out your own eyes.
I loved Twisted Metal on the PS1 but trying to play any of them again today and quickly you remember just how bad the graphics where. They only seemed great because before them you probably experienced your first 3D game on the SNES via StarFox so in comparison they looked good... lol
SOTN still looks awesome and it's one of the games I keep on my handheld system. (Combined with some RPG's and a handful of platformers that's mostly it for 2D games.)
It's a shame that Sony discouraged 2D games on the system, they held up better over time. This is one of the reason's Saturn emulation is interesting to me. Lots more 2D games on the system and the fighters I hear are the definitive versions.
Edit: Not saying all the 3D games look bad, I love Road Rash and Gran Turismo 2 they still hold up well today. Yes a little blocky but not the pixelated mess most of the 3D games turned into.

^agreed graphics wise but for me if the gameplay I'd great then the graphics aren't a massive deal breaker for me. Sure upgraded graphics would be great especially a game like GoldenEye. I know there was rereleases but an updated n64 version would be brilliant. TV type and size come into it too.

pppffff. PC also has MGS and FF7 since those times, so PC still wins over N64/PS1 and PS1 lost 2 games from the exclusive list.
The PC port of MGS was released in 2000, the PC port of FF7 was released 1998 - by that time the games were cold beans for PS1 users who already had other hits to busy themselves with.

@Xdqwerty, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! is the Japanese version of the game, different settings/characters/songs but otherwise identical mechanics. I played that before I knew about Elite Beat Agents lol. Both fantastic games https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osu!_Tatakae!_Ouendan+1 -
