07.31.23 | Yes to Virtual Boy too…
The Neo-Geo was the arcade at home. A high-end product not really aimed at the average home consumer. Its mythical status always made it kinda awesome and tantalising to this day.
From some responses here, I’m having trouble working out how people are defining “worst”. |
ConcubinaryCode
07.31.23 | Xbone was dead on launch and squandered its identity through its life cycle to the point its biggest selling point was being able to play 360 games because it had no noteworthy games to the point Microsoft has just started buying companies to pad out their library, switch has cool software but the hardware is garbage, vita had cool hardware but the software was garbage. The OG 3ds should be evident.
I'm going off mainstream consoles. Obviously ouya and neo get are garbage |

08.01.23 | Ps3 > 360. My 360 died in less than two years, I bought a ps3 after that and it still works to this day. Plus after the initial 3 years, ps3 library outgrew 360s. X360 got better PC ports than ps3 but aside from that all it had was halo and gears, every xbox has a glaring lack of Japanese games as well. Xbone got backwards compat and ps4 has more than activision/ea/bethesda/and ubisoft. ^^oh yeah also forgot to mention how many 360 discs i've had crack just by sitting in their case, if youve got your old collection give it a checkup as the actual gamecases are prone to centercracking the discs
And as for that Gen in general : wii aged the shittiest. Outdated graphics, minimal online, and 80% of the library being motion controls only make it one of the most annoying systems to game on. I still have mine and all I actually play on it is GameCube stuff. For older gens : saturn had a shitty English catalog, vnovel machine in a time where Americans barely knew the term anime. |

ConcubinaryCode
08.01.23 | Ps3 was a nightmare to develop for and made third party titles harder to optimize which gave the 360 the early edge despite the fact that 1 in 3 got the red ring of death at the time. I got the super slim model and it's been fine for 10+ years but the fat models have so many problems. |

08.01.23 | How is the PS3 the weakest if it has a plethora of amazing and diverse games, free online play, etc, legit curious |
BAT
08.01.23 | ^they likely didn't own both systems
@conc i bought the probably the 2nd or 3rd batch of systems around new years 2006? as did half of my class, all of them broke before the end of highschool and the ones that still had one either bought it a second time orrrr; one of them ended up shipping theirs for repair literally 6 times by 2012, eventually giving up and buying a slim. ps3 had similar hardware issues but since it sold much slower in the start, by the time stuff like mgs4/uncharted was out they'd already tweaked it. xbox you were fucked unless you bought an elite model or waited for the slim. afaic the 360 was a waste of 400+ and i've got no desire to get one out of nostalgia cause the xbone plays most of its games anyways. in 2023 it's pretty much worthless unless your trying to play the 35% of shit not bc.
don't get me wrong i love the generation of gaming and typically play more 2000s stuff than 2020s, but to act like the ps3 was the weakest of that bunch is just misinformed or deeply rooted in 'console war' posting. they all had issues but i wouldn't put any of them on a worst of list, same goes for ps2/x/gc. |

Atari - Amazing (never owned)
Master System - unrivalled selection of games (never owned)
NES - Better, more exciting, but lacking a certain something (never owned)
Megadrive - The future. The arcades were going to be playable at home anytime soon (owned)
SNES - Incredible. Home gaming perfected unless you had the bollocks of a PC then it was a simple case of that would piss on this. (This is THE greatest console of the lot though) (swapped the megadrive and about 12 games for it, it was more than worth it)
PlayStation - A marvel (owned)
Sega Saturn- Great (never owned)
N64 - Good but again lacking something, goldeneye is overrated banjo kazooie > (owned)
PlayStation II - Quality (owned)
Sega Dreamcast - I wanted this (never owned)
Xbox - Alright (owned)
PS3 (never owned never really played it although uncharted looked the best thing ever. I played it later and wasn’t disappointed)
Xbox 360 - potentially the best but that rrod is fucking unforgivable
PS4 - Quality (owned)

tectactoe
08.01.23 | Don't see how X360 could be considered trash in any context unless you're strictly talking about the RRoD, which is a strange metric by which to measure its greatness as a video game console.
Not sure I could rank it above SNES (too nostalgic, probably my personal favorite) or PS2 (almost objectively the best) but X360 was likely the console that accrued the most hours of my life. Huge catalog, improved upon a lot of XBox's flaws (design, UI, etc.), one of the first truly great implementations of online multiplayer, quite possibly the best and most ergonomic controller of all time, the XBox Live Arcade was incredible and almost made the system worth it on its own. |
DType
08.01.23 | Dreamcast is heaven for fighting game fans but has one of the worst controllers to play the genre |
zakalwe
08.01.23 | PS4 definitely the most hours because of bloodborne and DS1.
SNES despite being the best might actually have been the one that had the least amount of hours ploughed in because I was 12-14 and had far better things to be doing than sitting indoors playing bastard computer games which is very, very sad when you think about it. |
tectactoe
08.01.23 | Indeed. I'd wager a bet that I've actually played more hours of SNES as an adult via emulators, minis, and/or virtual console permutations than I did on the original console as a kid. Back then things were different. You went outside and played with your friends. Tossed a frisbee around, rode your bike, played whiffle ball. Even if you didn't want to, your parents usually forced you to. Made video games more of a luxury, a "special event" for a ten-year-old. Something you did for 30 mins before bed if you were lucky. I remember waking up an extra 30-40 minutes early on weekdays, before my parents were up, to get a quick round of SMB 2 in before school. |

08.02.23 | 'It's a good thing you stopped playing before itemized dlc and microtransactions were introduced. People sink thousands into single games now.'
I toyed with getting addicted to online gambling over lockdown...then got close to fully addicted the year after, so just signed up for the GamStop full online block and haven't gambled since. So yeah, I would have been far too into computer games where you keep spending.
Gambling and gaming are so similar to me, but I get most people are able to just have them as something they 'quite like' in their lives. For me it becomes a psychological experiment, I have to understand everything. My knowledge of gambling went from close to nothing to understanding near enough everything in under two years, including all the strategies and profiling the websites use. It's fascinating but really dangerous.
The gamification of the whole gambling experience online is some dystopian shit, close to pure evil at its worst. |
Minortimbo12
08.02.23 | People dissing on the wii
Like cmon, it was the non-gamers console
It certainly was not meant for heavy gaming. Yet, a few games still were heavily played. Through a FAN CREATED ALTERNATE WFC, there is on average 200 PEOPLE ONLINE EVERY SECOND OF THE DAY (for mario kart). The older consoles could also play dvds, but Nintendo blocked the use of it (so you have to mod it for the ability). It also can play gamecube flawlessly
On the other hand, the wii u was the worst console of it's time. A wii with updated graphics. wow. Also game library was and still is shit with the exception of zelda. |
BAT
08.02.23 | my advice : if you want a gamecube buy a wii instead as they're like a third the price currently. people are price gouging gc since the pandemic and the wii sold like 10x units as gc. also a lot of neat homebrew stuff for 'game preservation,' i would say its rep as an emulation consoles a bit of a reach as it mainly accurate for 8 bit gens, some ps1/snes games will run on it but not reliably enough to recommend. also while we're on the 2023 subject : ps3 still youtubes/netflix/psn shop/etc, to my knowledge wii doesn't have official support only homebrew. |

If you 'install' the wiishop n64/snes games those work well but the actual homebrew snes/64 emulator ran very ro8gh. It's a game to game basis some work well others are jank, main things id play on it were nes stuff which was spot on. Nooow jailbroken ps3 does n64/ps2 pretty well, but the average 40 dollar android phone does emulation better than any of the 00s systems or even raspberry pis
Full disclosure I haven't messed with wii homebrew I'm like 4+ years, I mainly just use it for nintendont |

BAT
08.04.23 | i liked the 360 slides interface better than the one they've replaced it with since[aka the current xbone/series dashboard]. there is tons of customization options but its kind of cluttered. no idea why the main things that pop up when i turn on my xbone are like thumbnails for my friends profiles. they somehow made twitch functionality worse by integrating it into the 'broadcast' panel, can't control the bitrate anymore so now i'm stuck streaming at like 360p cuz my upload rates not good enough to handle their new preset for 720p, likewise no 60fps option without going to ultra qual.
ps3 only takes about 20-30 seconds to get into a game : power > press profile than it puts you on the start game button if you've got a disc in. the main drawback at the time was upon first play it'd have to install onto the harddrive, which is now an industry standard in every generation since. ps3 didn't have party chat that's probably it's biggest 00s issue. 360 was also better at playing music during games. |

Demon of the Fall
08.04.23 | owned every PS up to the 4th gen and 2 was my fave - was probably just launched at the 'right time' for me. i.e. nostalgia... although not sure what's 'wrong' with the 3rd gen apart from the faults. Then again, X360 also had huge fault issues at the time (my current one is fine though, got a GoW3 one near launch - shit, that's 12 years ago!) |
Demon of the Fall
08.04.23 | Mega Drive is hugely nostalgic too. I can't really see myself moving forward with games much now, my desire to actually play anything new appears to be dwindling dramatically
also completely the opposite to Doof (now) in that I can easily put games down whenever I like, honestly struggle to 'get into' them in the first place
that said, I'm struggling to think of a genuinely 'bad' games console, having had experiences with loads of different ones over the years. Wii maybe, but that's a family experience and it seems harsh to judge it through the lens of a 'serious gaming console'. |

08.04.23 | Only console I've owned that I totally regret is the Wii U. Just a really pointless system imo. It was like a half-assed commitment to what they eventually did with the Switch with that BS screen/controller abomination, but wasn't different enough from the original Wii to justify existence.
I would say Dreamcast, too, but I actually won that console in a contest so I didn't feel bad when it turned out to be mostly crap. I did play a shit ton of Sonic Adventure, though. |

GBC and DS were both awesome, you're right, but they weren't enough to overshadow the greatness of the GBA for me. Mostly because of the catalog. |

The ps3 was stupid slow but xbone was so ridiculous I legit thought it was just my connection. But no, just a bloated mess, should be been called the 180 because it went backwards on what was good about the 360 and kept all the awful shit about it. They also stripped a ton of features for no benefit. Xbone should go down as one of the worst consoles hands down.

and yeah i wouldn't put ps3/360/wii on any worst lists, but i unironically go back to my ps3 the most so kinda surprised at the amount of hate it's getting. as far as sony failures go : pstv lol. the vita has gotten like a youtube cult of people saying it's one of the best consoles ever, but flopped massively and physical release market for it is pretty awful. eventually built up a strong digital library [of mostly indie releases] but in 2014 vita was a meme. psp was actually pretty cool but in 2023 pretty much anything will emulate it much more comfortably than playing on actual hardware, that single analog stick was a mistake. never got a 3ds[or any nintendo since wii] but the old ds is a goat handheld |
MisogynysticTryhard
08.04.23 | I’ve went though 3 ps4s in 8 years. At least 12 controllers due to stick drift.
Just recently I was given a 6 month ban on my account with probably 500$ of dlc’s, 300$ in digital games, for telling a guy in destiny 2 “I can smell you” after they teabagged during a trials match and messaged me 3x talking shit and my gameplay.
Every attempt at appealing or contacting customer support has resulted in either a site error, or the support tech simply ending the conversation before giving me an answer as to why I was banned..
Sony is a joke and I’ll never purchase another PlayStation product in my life lol |

however the stick drift problem applies to xbone/ps4/annd switch. all of them get terrible drift problems in less than a year, i'm on my 5th xbone controller and i've only had one since like 2018? i've given up buying official microsoft controllers as they wear out just as quick as a 20 dollar amazon knockoff. ps4 my stick doesnt drift but i'm encountering deadzone issues when i play ports of 2000s games[devil may cry in particular]. so far though i'd rank ps4 controller durability over microsofts in my experience. |

08.04.23 | the PS2 is the greatest console ever made [2]
Jak and Daxter, Ratchet and Clank, and the first two Kingdom Hearts games were my childhood. Oh yeah can't forget Burnout and Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2. |

08.04.23 | fair enough those are all solid. and yeah i have similar sentiments for certain genre games : like 90s jrpgs way better than 00s cause i didn't have to wait for the shitty voice acting/cutscenes to be over with. likewise i feel like general gameplay remained mostly the same from 2005-now with the main enhancements being graphics or online[imo the average aaa action game in 2020s still plays like gears, dmc, or cod2]. ps1s still my all time favorite system |

08.05.23 | GameCube best console without a doubt tbh. Add on the gba and you have the golden age of Nintendo imo. |

08.05.23 | My experience with Pikmin is limited to playing Olimar in Brawl against my friends in high school and running away and chucking Pikmin at them the entire time. |

08.05.23 | Gamecube is probably a godsend for people who like adventure games and rpgs |

08.05.23 | So many GameCube games are just works of art. The music from that era is just like guuuuhhh so good. |

08.05.23 | best GameCube game is Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance which costs like 300$ to buy physically cuz they made 0 copies and it’s a cult classic |

08.05.23 | I rented Path of Radiance from my local video store and loved it until I found out about the character perma-death; then I hated it. |

08.05.23 | Path of Radiance slaps, played it for the first time this year. Emulation for the win.
Also, yikes at the GBA trashing comment. It's in contention for my favourite console ever lol. |
Scheumke
08.05.23 | Not trashing lol, just my personal opinion. I think a lot of it has to do with our age tbh. I played the absolute shit out of the Snes, N64, Genesis and GBC, then when the GBA and Gamecube came out I was balls deep into pc gaming with stuff like Diablo 2. As a teen those consoles did a lot less for me then the earlier gen did as a kid. I completely get that a lot of you will have the same nostalgia for the GBA and Gamecube. Don't think they ever put out a downright bad console in the last 25 years tbh. |

08.06.23 | Path of Radiance is still a good game, don't get me wrong.
Can't speak on any of the other Fire Emblem games. I can speak on Fire Emblem characters being generally lame as shit in Smash though, except for Brawl Ike. |

08.06.23 | How has nobody mentioned the Phantom lmao |

08.06.23 | Question for you is worst boss?
Ishin sword saint is so hardb |

08.06.23 | SNES and PS1 for me are untouchable. And yeah GBA SP was probably the best handheld |

08.06.23 | Shadow dragon is the worst game in the series so if you like it you might be a fire emblem fan |

08.08.23 | ?
how is it the worst in the series |

08.08.23 | “how is it the worst in the series“
Because all 15 other games in the series are better
It’s just bland with a bad art style, gameplay-wise it’s just basic fire emblem mechanics, the only class not in other games is the ballistician. It’s fun because it’s fire emblem, but seriously every other game in the series has either an interesting story, or characters, or art style or gameplay gimmicks that keep you more invested and entertained |
