The way I see it, is if the system no longer being made and games are no longer coming out for it. It's no longer a "modern" console. So if it's no longer a "modern" console, wouldn't it then become a "retro" console? |

Give it at least 5 more years and then probably it'll be more "retro" then. My list would have to be: PS1 SNES Game Boy (original) |

@disgaeniac I don't like the N64 because of the lack of good games, sure there are some of the most amazing games of all time on it, but the N64 library seems kind of lacking. Also the controller is one of the strangest things I have ever used. The playstation has a weird regular controller (dualshock is good but, not all games support it.). in a weird way, I just don't like it, its the same with the XBOX. I cant really explain why. The games just aren't very interesting. And I know I shouldn't be complaining about graphics, but the playstation's graphics are not appealing. They make the console somewhat not enjoyable to play. |

The playstation, however, is amazing. There is a game for any person on the planet to enjoy and the controller is fantastic (obviously cause they havent changed it much in 3 consoles). I love the console forever. :) |

The N64 library is definitely lacking, and I hate that freaking controller! The awesome games on it though are so good that its worth getting one. Heck its worth getting just for Ocarina of Time! |
