EDIT: Also, stop double posting. Keep your replies in 1 post, and edit as you see fit.
Sorry, I couldn't fit anymore except for other in the poll!
Oh yea, foxi4 it would be great if you could expand it!
Oh, also, how do I delete a reply?
That would be great!
I intended to add the Matell Intellivision and the Coleco ColecoVision options, but I've hit the limit of poll entries now - sorry!
You don't. I'll merge your posts.
You felt the need to put the Atari 5200 in? And misspelling the 7800? Again, not sure that'll get a vote anyway.....
Anyway, SNES for me all the way! My golden age of gaming for sure, and there's simply far too many titles to list. Mega Drive/Genesis certainly deserves a mention of course (my 2nd favourite, though the PS1 gives it a good battle!). Off your list I also have many fond memories of the 2600, NES and Saturn!
N64? ....Well yeah, that was good too - not up there with those previously mentioned, but Mario 64 is an all time classic, Goldeneye - well the beer fuelled seshes me and my family and/or friends had on that...... Handful of other good uns too (PS1 & Sat weed all over it otherwise though)
Foxi though, slagging off the N64 Castlevanias?! What's wrong with you man? Those were classic videogame equivalents of B-movie cheese: horrifically, laughably flawed, but still a blast! You're just a babby though so I'll let you off: clearly those are the sort of games where 'you had to be there' at the time.... Cult hits though, I'll always say that!

Sheesh, I can't be arsed trudging through for links, only for you to dismiss them as old stupid whatevers anyway...Castlevania on the N64 a cult hit? Since when? In which universe?
, but there are fans! I loved the first one: it's one of those "so shit it's awesome!" games, like the aforementioned "Giant Ant Death" or whatever B-movie. Might fire it up later coz of this, and probably end up eating my words....

Is this gif a Prius? Because it's been getting great mileage.
Can someone recommend good SNES games? I never had the console growing up, but I've got a DSTwo now, so I'd like to check them out.
Well, starfox is a great game, one of the first 3D games on the console <--- Yes, 3D! And yoshi's island is great, you should check that out! Plus, donkey kong country 1, 2 and 3! There are many more great games, But these are some I highly recommend!
My favorite was the Atari 2600 because of one game:
Nahh just kidding xD my favorite is the SNES because of games like Mario Paint and DKC
Halloween
Just find a complete set, delete the ones you know you wouldn't like. Barney's Bedtime Rampage you probably wouldn't want to play.... Pee Wee Herman's Movie Time Masturbation....
If you don't like sports games delete those.
After that most of the games released on the system where at least decent, filtering out the garbage and sports should leave you with like 600+ games to try out. (Some Sports games are not too bad I kind of like NCAA Basketball for some reason, that mode 7 floor is pretty cool lol)
Edit: But some sure fire classics... Super Mario World, Super Castlevania, Super Metroid, Starfox, Zelda, Final Fight, Gradius III, Axelay, Super Bonks Adventure, Super R-Type, Final Fantasy III, Chrono Trigger. I am probably forgetting a ton of games but that list would keep you happy for a few weeks at least.
The SNES, as it was the only console I had as a child (well...it was mine, my brother and 2 friends). After that, it was all PC for me.
Looks like I missed another rose tinted N64 glasses thread, we have done it bigger and better before though (one example being http://gbatemp.net/threads/think-before-you-buy.352702/ ). So far nobody mentioned things like "but but but goldeneye is still used in competitions" like it at all matters. One of those threads was and my choice quote from it would be "Now each of those games has a place in gaming history but I am not sure I would really return to them, especially not in their original form (love me some Perfect Dark and Banjo XBLA),".
I am seeing a disturbing lack of Amiga love though. I can forgive the lack of a C64 but not the Amiga. Some will tell me it was a general computing device and thus does not count, some are wrong (if nothing else games console as locked down device is a newer concept than games consoles).

Yes a few being the keywords there. Note my post before the one you quoted: The N64 had a very small library especially compared to the psx, BUT, all the great games on the N64 were top notch. There is probably a collection of 20-25 fucking great games on that system. And at the end of the day, thats really all you're going to need with a single console.
I was very clearly pointing out the quality games. And I even mentioned how small the library was compared to the competition. The only reason I pointed out the quality games which I made sure to point out that there weren't many, but enough, was because you quoted the thing I just stated here and came back with "Especially Superman64, Carmageddon 64, Daikatana, both of the terribad Castlevanias, Mega Man "Almost Legends" 64... Yup, staples of that 64-bit quality."
I'm amazed at how I proved my point, only for you to turn it all around back to the original point I had made as if I had said something completely opposite of what is being stated, I never stated that the N64 had a huge library of amazing games, instead I pointed out from the getgo, the small collection but how it had a large handful of fucking fantastic titles. I really appreciate your attempt to educate me though.
