    I I am a Sega can too but it's mostly due to the controllers they were able to produce rather than the actual games themselves, but even then I still do also prefer their games way more than I did Nintendo.

    PS2 for sure. It feels weird to say considering I played on this console so much, but I guess time moves on! :) Probably my favorite console ever, and I'm not a console-guy by any means!

    It's my favorite one too. That to me was the peak wherein a lot of experimental games were still being released and they had good enough graphics, whereas afterwards the games kind of fell into a lull of being mostly FPS titles, in my opinion.

    The NES, it's the birthplace of so many classic games which have developed fantastic adaptations and sequels today.

    It's so odd to call the Playstation 2 a "retro" console, especially since it had longevity. Games were still being made for the PS2 during the PS3 generation, after all. It makes me wonder if 10 or so years is enough to call a console's reign "retro". Then again, the gaming industry hasn't been around for that long.

    Agreed. Although I guess I can understand since as good as the graphics were already on that console they still were used with CRT TVs so I guess that's a big factor of why it's being categorized into the vintage market.

    For me it was PS1and 2. The games are great on the other consoles too but PS games are great and I was grew up playing on it.
