Although I have some great memories from my SNES and Gamecube, I'm going to cast my vote for my good old Game Boy Advance. Its vast library of SNES remakes eventually led me to buying an actual SNES later, and the e-Reader's small library of NES ports also influenced my decision to purchase an NES a few years after that. Not to mention it has backwards compatibility with the Game Boy/Color library. As such, my top 20 will draw from all 3 generations of Game Boy games. 1. Pokémon Gold 2. Pokémon Emerald 3. Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones 4. Super Mario Bros. Deluxe 5. Final Fantasy V Advance 6. Super Mario Advance 2 7. Super Mario Advance 4 8. Pokémon FireRed 9. Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls 10. e-Reader 11. Advance Wars 2 12. Super Mario Land 2 13. Pokémon Red/Blue 14. Mario Tennis (GBC) 15. Ms. Pac-Man: Special Color Edition 16. Tetris DX 17. Bomberman Quest 18. Super Mario Advance 3 19. Yoshi 20. Pokémon Trading Card Game |

While I am sure its not the "popular" opinion, mine has to be the Wii U. I know, how can this under selling system be my favorite. I think it really comes down to what features the system has to offer, and how helpful those features are for you. For example, the GamePad has been fantastic as my system is in my living room but often times I want to watch NetFlix, YouTube or play games in bed. The GamePad makes it possible. Also, the internet browser on the Wii U is great. Thanks to its support of HTML 5, I am able to watch videos on it. This is great as there are a number of anime sites that I like to watch shows on, and the Wii U allows me to watch them. Partner that with Netflix, Amazon Video, Crunchy Roll and Hulu and there is never a lack of things for me to do on the system. I also have a large collection of Wii games that I can play on the Wii U. The virtual console also makes it possible for me to play some of my favorite NES, SNES and GBA games without having to breakout my old systems. I also love a lot of the games that come out on the eShop, like the NES Remix games. While not perfect, I also like using Miiverse. Its a great way to talk to others who have the same games I am playing. I find myself surfing some of the communities (like Art Academy) for hours. There are so many talented people out there who can do amazing things with the GamePad. However, just like with any system, its also the collection of games that makes a system. The Wii U already has a nice collection of games and there are a bunch I am still looking forward too. Here are just a few of the games I love on the Wii U: - Bayonetta 2 - Mario Kart 8 - Super Smash Bros. for Wii U - Donkey Kong Country Returns: Tropical Freeze - Lego City Undercover - Hyrule Warriors - New Super Mario Bros. U - ZombiU - Pikmin 3 - The Wonderful 101 - Super Mario 3D World - NES Remix 1 and 2 - Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker I also enjoyed some remakes like Wind Waker and Deus Ex but I'm not going to get into those as they really aren't exclusive, just exclusive features. Games I'm looking forward too: - Devil's Third - Zelda Wii U - Star Fox - Mario Maker - Splatoon - Xenoblade Chronicles X - Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem |

Favorite console? Gah! I have to go with the PlayStation 2. I remember getting a PS2 around Christmas 2003 with Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2 and Need for Speed Underground. The PS2 brought so much joy to my life. My friends and I would spend hours on the weekends doing nothing but playing NBA Live and taking turns playing Kingdom Hearts. Not to mention, it served as my DVD player. The fat PS2 is the king of all game systems! I'll try to list 20+ exclusives I loved on that system: 1. Kingdom Hearts II 2. God of War II 3. Kingdom Hearts 4. Rogue Galaxy 5. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas 6. Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King 7. Final Fantasy XII .... that's all I got. 20 is hard, lol. |
