Which year?

Difficult to nail it down to one year but the first half of the decade for sure, but I'd go with 81-84 more specifically. Impossible for me to nail it down to one year. So many great classics were released in those years, both on the VCS and in the arcade.

While it may not be my favorite year, 2000 was highly enjoyable. It was the when my top three systems of all time, the Dreamcast, PS2, and N64, were all being supported by their respective creators.

I have to agree with that. Plus PC games were doing well.

The PC part is very true. I started to see myself turn into a PC gamer around this time. I played Phantasy Star Online on PC ore than the Dreamcast around this time. I also started moving over to Starcraft and Diablo.

This question is way too hard.  Every year has different memories, high points, amazing discoveries. I would say 1986/1987 depending on Japan or USA timeline.  Favorites from this time: NES, Sega Master System, Legend of Zelda, Kid Icarus, Ikari Warriors (arcade), Alex Kidd, Dragon Quest, Caatlevania, Metroid, Out Run (arcade), Bubble Bobble, Adventure Island, 2600 Jr., Famicom Disk System.
