Top 10 Greatest Consoles

These classic video game consoles delivered us hours of entertainment, but only one can rule them all.

10. Nintendo Gamecube

Despite the fact that it looked like a purple lunch box, it's hard to hate on Nintendo's Wii-predecessor with its fantastic video game lineup. We blasted TIE Fighters in Rogue Squadron II, pummeled friends senseless in Super Smash Bros. Melee and sailed the high seas in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Gamecube also spurred the release of the wireless Wavebird game pad, one of the best controllers in history.

Okay, come on now. Why isn't the Nintendo Wii or the Sony Playstation 3 on the list. Let's be for real now.

yeah this list is pretty much in the #1 spot for top ten worst lists in list history

This list is mind-numbingly horrible. First of all, I love my 360 to death, but there is no way that it's the greatest system of all time. Genesis should have easily been in the top 5, if not in the top 3. And N64? Come on!!! THAT was when people had some real fun playing video games. It gets my vote for being the best multiplayer system of all time, and I don't care what you say about xBox Live. Goldeneye, Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros., Star Fox 64...anyone who has played these games with 4 people in the same room will tell you that this deserves to be the greatest system of all time!

360 sucks

This list IS retarded for two reasons; One, why the hell is Sega Genesis only in the number nine spot? It should be in the NUMBER ONE spot if ANYTHING. Two, what's the deal with all the Nintendo crap? Pretty much every system ever made by Nintendo is on here. I can sum up Nintendo in one compound word: OVERRATED. However, I am glad that Xbox 360 got number one. 360 is better than the Wii. HAHA, SUCK ON THAT, NINTENDO FANBOYS!!!! >=P

I hate to sound like a ranting fanboy, but c'mon...anybody know screwattack? yeah? XB360 not even top 10 (i think) and N64? number 2....C'mon, get people who actually play these systems on this site...
