SNES, for sure... I grew up on the NES, i'm an 80's baby. but i've got love for SNES

My favorite games are the usual suspects: Yoshi's Island, Chrono Trigger, A Link to the Past, Final Fantasy II & III, Mario World, Super Metroid, Earthbound, Illusion of Gaia, TMNT IV: Turtles In Time. Plenty of other great classics made for an awesome library: Sim City, Castlevania IV, Secret of Mana, Secret of Evermore, YSIII, Breath of Fire II, F-Zero, the original Mario Kart, Super Mario All-Stars, Megaman X, Dracula X, Mystical Ninja, Spike McFang, Tetris Attack, Super Ghouls N Ghosts & Demon's Crest, Ogre Battle, home ports of Street Fighter II & Killer Instinct... and stuff only I like such as Mystic Quest & Lord of the Rings.

My favorite experience was my waking up on X-Mas morning and finding Final Fantasy III in '94, with that $74.99 price tag on it. I was so happy, I don't remember even saying that I wanted it and wasn't even expecting it. I don't know how my mom knew to get it because she knew nothing about games.

I played that game out hardcore for 3 days, barely sleeping. It was so great to beat it, and I started playing again right away. Immediately I wished I could forget everything in the game and experience it for the first time again.

Good memory. Thanks, mom.

Definitely the Gamecube, my favorite games for it are: TLoZ: Wind Waker, Super Mario Sunshine, Mario Kart: Double Dash, Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, etc.

N64 was when Nintendo were at their best. They had the massive dick you could slap people with. Even though I LOVE the Gamecube and was able to understand my games a lot more at an older game, it lost the potential to be that little bit better with some of the exclusives that only appeared on Xbox/PS2. It's between N64 and Gamecube but N64 just that little bit more.
The less said about the Wii, the better.

Also, no Virtual Boy? We all know that'd win. :D

As much as I like the SNES, N64, and Wii, The Gamecube just stands out for me. I love that console to death! With games like LoZ: Wind Waker, 1080 Avalanche, Super Mario Sunshine, Paper Mario and the Thousand Year Door, Metrod Prime, Resident Evil 4, and Super Smash Bros Melee, it was so good. I will forever love me GC, as should anyone with their Consoles!

It was definitely the N64 for me. I had some of my best gaming experiences with that system, and some of my favorite series got their start on that system; Super-smash Bros and Paper Mario. Also, it had some of the best console pokemon games that I can remember, Pokemon Stadium, Pokemon Snap, and Hey You Pikachu. I was addicted to those, and honestly I haven't enjoyed a single pokemon spin-off as much as I enjoyed Snap. Also, Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It was really the games that made the system for me.

Torn between 3DS and NES... I'll go with 3DS.

I say Wii. Not because of the base console and games, but because it's very easy to run many emulators on, and it will be any other Nintendo console.

64, with SNES and NES close behind. I grew up with NES and SNES, but the 64 came out when I was 10, the prime age for that. The graphics are my favorite, as is the controller.

Not to mention Ocarina of Time. Duh.

I grew up with my N64. Actually the N64 is my favorite system of all time due to fact it made me start loving the art of video games. To this day I still play it and just recently played it to record some Mario Party 3 footage.

GameCube. Maybe I'm biased because it was my first console but it was my entire childhood. I'm still finding new games to play on it to this day (although, unfortunately, they're getting rarer and rarer).

A close second would definitely be the 3DS. I've been in love with it since I first got my hands on it on the morning of launch day, despite the fact that I bought it with (shudder) Super Monkey Ball 3D. It's the console that introduced me to the Rayman series, which I'm now a huge fan of, and having the entire Kid Icarus series on one machine is pretty cool too. Activity Log is really handy, and even though Mario Kart 7 was a little disappointing in that regard - as well as many other regards - Nintendo's online effort has really stepped up with this console. I'm really hoping the Wii U can turn around like the 3DS did. It has a lot of potential.
