    The Dreamcast was way ahead of it's time and the only video-game system I was pretty nerd-like about. Rez, Samba de Amigo, Ikaruga, Soul Caliber, Phantasy Star Online, Shenmue 1 and 2.... that system was way awesome. Plus it was the only system that I've actually gone to the trouble to import games for.

    Chalk up another vote for the Super Nintendo as the greatest console of all-time. I've still got my SNES hooked up to the TV with 30 or so games in my collection, still play regularly. The graphics obviously are not as good, but the gameplay is A+.

    I am considering buying a DS when I get the cash just to play the new Super Mario game. Has anyone heard if that's as good as it looks or is it a letdown?

    I'd like to unretire my SNES (if the damn kids hadn't ruined it) for one game only... Contra III.

    I put more time into that game than any other. Played a lot of games but that was my fave. Also liked FF2 or whatever the hell it was back then.

    N64 was overshadowed by a superior system. You might have heard something about it. It was called PlayStation!

    FF2 indeed it was. one of my favorite games of all time.

    I do have this to say though, whoever the hell thought that changing the name of Revolution to Wii should be publically slapped every day for the rest of his/her life. What a STUPID ass name.
    The reason why no one likes the name Wii, is becasue it is slang for going to the bathroom, if that was not the case then it would be fine. I think the name Wii will grow on people.
