Asked differently, “what console did you have as a kid?”
Nah, I had each of them and the SNES was best. Super Mario World, karts, RPG’s.
No SMB3 though :(
Do you mean it didn’t exist, or that you didn’t have it? Because SMB3 on Super Mario All-Stars for SNES is how I most often play it.
I knew there was a wii version, but not an SNES version.
TiL
If you enjoy emulators, I highly recommend it. They’re all excellent ports and the better graphics are fun.
Nice counter, lol
Amiga or Commodore 64. If I get bored of the games already around, I can just program my own!
Oh yeah, Amiga ftw.
So much gold.
Probably a PC-engine, been discovering it’s library and it’s extremely pleasing for a weeb.
Its* library.
PS1 had a bunch of bangers. or N64
I’d have to go with one of the kings of backwards compatibility to have a huge library; the original PS3 for its PS1/PS2 backwards compatibility, GBA SP for its GB/GBC backwards compatibility, or Wii U for its Wii and Virtual Console compatibility. Of those, I’d probably pick Wii U.
Is the PS2 old enough yet to be considered retro? That would be my pick, if so.
At some point, all consoles will be retro consoles :p
!Gameboy Advance, just so many great games I’m still to play!<
Specifically AGS101 for the better backlight. I’d say DMG because that’s my favorite, but with the GBA line, I don’t have to pick.
Does Wii U with its entire eShop count as a retro console? Because, despite being unpopular, it had a lot of games from a lot of past Nintendo consoles.
I’m gonna cheat on a technicality, and say “Evercade” which is still getting new cartridge releases. It’s retro, but not vintage.
If I had to go vintage…probably the SNES for multiplayer, but it would hurt a lot not to pick the Gameboy SP.
Does a personal computer count as retro? im going with that one
Doesn’t count as console though.
Commodore 64
Mega Drive
I still have mine.
GBA SP
Super Nintendo, or SNES. The Mario and Zelda games were great, and so was Mario Kart, but there were loads of great third party games too, like Castlevania and Super Probotector (Contra?).
Wii U is probably the safest bet as it can natively play GameCube and Wii games with easy emulation for the rest of the systems.
