    in Europe the PS2 and WII are multiple tiers above the rest. Everyone had a PS2 and WII, while the other old consoles on the list are limited to dedicated gamers here. I don't think we will ever see a console dominate the market share like the ps2 did in its prime. there were still games being developed on the console well into the PS3's lifetime.
    Every store that sold games had many shelves of PS2 games, you would be lucky to spot more than 2 rows of xbox or nintendo games in that era.

      These comments are some of the dumbest i have ever seen
      -Silot
      99,9% of the people buying the console had no knowledge of piracy. Dedicated gamers did not push the PS2 into the limelight, it was a combination of hardware excellency, predating all other consoles of it's own generation by atleast 1 year (GameCube and Xbox), backwards compatability with PS1 (games and joystick), being a DVD platform for audio and movies. The casuals are what sold the console.
      -Gonzalo
      Horrible analogy. Fortnite is just another product in a long line of almost identical BR's in a very saturated market, there is little innovation, but it's better than its predecessors which are just early-acces asset flips (like Pubg or H1) so that's not really that impressive. PS2 and WII had no competition in their respective markets and they were also excellent products, designed well and were innovative in their own ways. If you don't like something, make a compelling argument against it, instead of trying to associate it with something that is completely irrelevant.
      That being said, there is no argument here, The PS2 is objectively the best console. When asmon says that "having a PS2 is being ahead of the curve" he is ironically wrong, because almost nobody didn't have it, you were behind the curve if you didn't have a PS2.

    The Wii U was underrated during its life. It had a solid library of some of the best games of all time. Nintendo completely dropped the ball with marketing and tanked an entire generation as a result. It was their Vita, except they actually stuck by it and released more and more software instead of just hitting the emergency eject button like Sony did. Nowadays - with a ton of the Wii U titles getting ported elsewhere - I don't think it has a ton of merit as a console. There are a handful of awesome games still stuck on it that make it hard to toss and it also is a great means to natively run 3 gens of nintendo software (gamecube, wii and wii u). Outside of that, Switch covers most of your bases and was a better execution on the Wii U idea.

      I also bought a switch on a whim in February & dropped 500+ for the extra controller and smash bros. Then proceeded to buy another game in the market place to only find out I needed to purchase a micro SD card for $30.. I only play it when I’m taking a dump or nothing else sounds good..

Thankfully it’s pretty cheap and not that hard to fix on your own so I didn’t need to deduct even more points.

    I started on the Atrari but it wasn't mine,my first gaming system was the commodore 64 and I've played pretty much everything in this video.I think alot of PC gamers forget where it all really started.

      A lot of times I feel like he is just too young to know what he's talking about. I'm 36 years old and I realize that a 30 year old is actually too young to have played any of these devices during their hey-day. The things he said about Game Gear are just flat-out wrong. My sister and I used to fight over who got it because of the fact that it had rechargeable batteries, whereas the Game Boy did not, and during road trips, this meant the difference between having a game system you could play the entire duration of the trip, and having one that you could only play during daylight since it wasn't backlit, and for a brief time period before the batteries would completely die. Don't even get me started on him acting like the computers shown were "stone age." For their time period they were light years ahead. I remember every kid on our block coming over to watch us play video games that would be re-released 10 years later on future consoles since they were that far ahead of their time and basically the pioneers for what kids play now.

      No. Lack of games and no game anywhere near the perfection of a SMW, FF7 or OoT. While the NES didn't have a game reaching this level of perfection (except SMB3, but it came really late in its livespan) but it had *the* most innovative games of any console. Nothing can seriously claim to be even comparable to it. I think it's fair.

      If you look back through the dreamcast library about 90% of the games are just arcade ports. I don't think it had very high appeal over all due to the limited selection. There are definitely a few gems in there though.

    I'd argue the Wii U's real flop point wasn't the marketing as everyone says. It certainly didn't help, but I think what screwed it was how singleplayer-focused it was.
    If you look at how the Switch was able to compete with Xbox and Playstation, it's because it's perfectly designed for social gatherings. Same thing goes for the Wii. The other consoles have been focusing more on technology and online experiences for a while now, and that's what lets Nintendo still be so successful; it completely dominates that party demographic.
    The Wii U, on the other hand, made it actively difficult to play in-person multiplayer. When they lose that social aspect, what's the use of a console with weaker technology and much worse online functionality? It's only purpose was as a handheld, but it was so chunky it was awful at that too. The Switch functions as both a console AND a handheld 20x better.

    I miss old Sega. I like to imagine Sega was the Dunder Mifflin of the video game industry. They invented two business models since business theory isn't important or real.
    The first was forgetting to mention their next gen console Saturn was not in pre-production or in the prototype phase. They sat on warehouse
    pallets without notifying all the major retailers The thing even existed.
    Second was release a follow up to the Saturn only in Japan. For more than a year.
