  The OG Playstation had, by far, the biggest collection of games that I consider my favourites.

  All of them, they had their draw backs and benefits but allowed me to enjoy a hobby I loved.

  For me, I think it’s the Megadrive/Genesis.

  I was a Nintendo kid, originally. We had a NES and a Gameboy in our house, and I loved them. But during a visit to the US in the summer of 1993, I got to spend pretty much the whole of the 4th of July at a family friend’s house in Massachusetts, playing Genesis games with a bunch of American kids. That cemented it in a special place in my mind.

  PS Vita or PS2.

  PS2 mainly for the games, so many fantastic ones I still play and replay decades later. Keeping track per platform the owned-played ratio and how many liked games in absolute numbers each has for me, the PS2 is still king in both. Even lesser known games I generally have a blast with.

  On the Vita, its library isn't as strong as the PS2's, even if many of my favorite games were found through the Vita. But it compensates at being a fantastic console to mod. While I know people modding consoles do it for playing ilegitimate copies of games, if you ignore that, its mods still give you a lot to use the console for, possibly risking seeing the console dying in your hands while you read an ebook on it, try some homebrew ROM from Itchio, play with PSP homebrews, etc. Also it's a bit of a learning curve and technical information on it is sparse, but learning how it ticks makes tinkering second nature (...unlike the PS3 =.=").

  In no particular order: and NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, PS3.

  I mean. in some ways its the odyssey because it has games that were so much better than other systems at the time despite it being black and white

  I think I liked all the ones I owned but switch was my fav since it had so much and 3rd party classics and everything and it was power efficient, compact, portable. Steam deck has taken over for me though. Way more of a swiss army knife.
