    What did you make of our rankings? What else would you like to see us rank from worst to best? LET US KNOW!
  • My Grandma bought me a Dreamcast when it dropped. It was the first console I had brand new on launch day and I was the coolest kid on the block for about 6 months. Love you Grandma 🙏🏾 🕊
  • @lukepersall9901
    5:12 Hideo Kojima confused by "We WATCH movies and we PLAY games" that was subtly hilarious 🤣
  • Getting printed stickers for achievements does honestly sound like a lovely idea 🤩
  • Nice video with many exotic consoles that were previously unknown to me. The video is now 3 years old. 3 years ago the Switch game library was still under construction. Today I would rank the switch higher, as it currently offers the best overall package of retro gaming, indie titles and exclusive games for me.

    1st generation: >900 consoles 8th generation: 4 consoles

    None of these consoles can hold a candle to the Soulja-boy.

    I'm an Atari 2600 kid, it was legendary in my eyes. I remember begging my dad for one but we didn't have a lot of money and, to be quite honest, he didn't really understand the whole game console idea. One day he came home with a giant box and inside it were two Atari 2600s and 53 games. To this day, 53 is still my lucky number. Apparently, my dad was at a garage sale in an affluent neighborhood looking for golf clubs and he found this box of goodies, which he bought for $10. The owner's son had gotten into big trouble and the dad was selling all his stuff to make a point...ouch. Needless to say, I became a very popular kid in the neighborhood. I remember seeing Super Mario on the NES for the first time and absolutely loosing my mind, it was a game changer. I was lucky that there were several other kids in my hood that were gamers as well so I got exposed to many of these systems: NES, SNES, Genesis, TurboGrafix 16, Neo Geo and many others. The one system that really stood out to me during this time was the Sega Genesis, I remember cutting yards so I could buy it, I was mesmerized by the Altered Beast commercial. I had countless hours of fun playing NBA Jam, Sonic the Hedgehog and Mortal Kombat (with blood!). When I went to college in the late 90s I lived in a 250 sq ft efficiency apartment and I ended up with a Sega Saturn, which I bought at a pawn shop. I ordered a modem that plugged into the top port (Toys R Us had to order it from Japan) and I got an adapter for the second controller port, which allowed me to use a keyboard. The web browser was a CD and I remember there was only one internet service provider in Houston at that time that would support the setup. I remember surfing the web in 97' on my Sega Saturn and playing chess on sites like Caissa. In my opinion, the Sega Saturn was the most revolutionary system of all time. Later on, I used to buy used Dreamcasts from flea markets, fix them, and repackage them with games and controllers (anyone that knows the boot loader trick knows what I am talking about right now), which helped subsidize the income of a poor college student. Then of course, the original XBOX and Halo, a truly great time in my life. I remember countless LAN parties at my house, my friends bringing their own TV with them in the backs of the hoopties. Good times. I took a long break from gaming but I got back in a few years ago with the XBOX One S and I only play Call of Duty these days. Truly great times in my life were spent with good friends around a console. I appreciate the ability to network with anyone in the world in an instant but it's just not the same as crushing your friend in Tecmo Super Bowl and watching his face in real-time. Long live the game console!

    I don’t think I’d be half way as passionate when it comes to gaming if I hadn’t owned a PlayStation 2 growing up, absolute gang changer
  • @14714623
    The ps2 to xbox 360 era was such a great time to be a gamer.
  • @anesalic1
    After 20 minutes I realized, this video is like 2 hour!!!
  • @maverickjoga
    must've been a humongous job putting this video together. very well done!
  • @mickpratt8327
    I have to admit that some of the most fun I ever had gaming was on the Sega Genesis. So many good games and good multi-player titles.
  • @nivekkobe696
    as a man in my early 50s and being a gamer since day 1 i find this very nostalgic and compelling I think its brilliantly done and researched and the showing of those old consoles mindblowing congrats to the people involved
  • @DrRobGilles
    I actually really liked the sega Saturn 🪐 The system didn’t have a lot of depth to it in terms of games but it felt like a pioneer of next generation gaming at the time. Playing virtual fighter on that 3D resolution was a new experience for me as a kid and it set the stage for much more polished systems to come. To this day I still whip out the Saturn sometimes
  • When you said there was a big list coming out I didn't expect it to be this huge. Respect, guys!
  • @eleazarruoch576
    What happened to the Sega Dreamcast was tragic. I had one. It was a great system. The graphics were smooth, unlike previous systems where they were a bit choppy. And it had some good games. It was just too little too late.
