Ranking Every Nintendo Console

Where are my people who have a Wii and still play games on it to this day?

The Wii U is such a phenomenal way to experience all generations of Nintendo games, it definitely earned its spot here

As someone who is biased towards backwards compatibility, I can't help but put the first gen wii higher up on your list, respectively. The switch has its deserving credentials for it's position and the GameCube is a great console aside from it's tiny discs and low memory storage. I've never really played the older older consoles, but the SNES is very nostalgic and still a great system to this day. Just my $0.02. :)

Glad to watch all these again, welcome back Nathaniel!

NO GAMECUBE WAS A HANDHELD THE HANDLE

NB: "Consoles are like children to me," Also NB: Who would buy a Wii mini?

The N64 is an interesting one for me. The cartridges were a tried and true medium that loaded up more or less instantly, but the Playstations optical discs had larger capacity and were cheaper to make, which allowed them to offer free demos in magazines, which probably helped the new kid on the block gain foothold in the industry. Sony's original dualshock had a much better analog stick, although the disc-based system was a lot less reliable from my experience back in the day. The N64's graphics were superior to its rivals, and Nintendo basically popularised the idea of an analog stick, even though it did wear out very quickly, and the use of cartridges might have led to that dark time for Nintendo, even though they were more reliable. The Gamecube was an AMAZING console and the controller design was near perfection, but no console in the 6th generation stood a chance against the PS2 with its already huge fanbase and DVD playback, which I think popularised the DVD even though they'd been around for years. And the Xbox was winning many fans with its online shooting games. In fact I think a huge reason the PS2 and Xbox were so popular was because the PS1 popularised the idea that video games weren't just for kids, and those consoles continued on that. Nintendo basically did their own thing from that point on rather than try to compete with them, and I think that was the best decision they ever made.

Oddly enough, my NES only works when you DON’T push down the game.

"Nintendo consoles are like children to me." You and me both Bandy, you and me both.

Can you make a ranking of every handheld from worst to best.

Your video made me realize I could download Killer Instinct onto the SNES classic! My dad loves that game a lot, and told me while holding his Killer Instinct SNES cartridge “When you get me a device able to play this, you will prove that you are successful.” We already had a SNES classic lying around, so when I saw this, I quickly went online and found ways to download the ROM for it.

It is pretty fun to play on old consoles to see how much this technology has evolved

That moment when he put the shrek game in the Wii Mini

"Nintendo Consoles are like children to me" What about the virtual boy? That console was like the abusive parent.

Would have loved to see the hand-held systems in here as well. expected the gba sp and new 3ds xl to rank pretty high around game cube and wii u in the listings.

ain’t you nathanial b?

virtual boy: dosent even make the list [sad virtual boy noises]
