Favorite Console? (Nintendo)

[Kriven]

I thought it might be interesting to talk about what everybody's favorite Nintendo console is. This takes into consideration whatever the hell you want: library, backwards compatibility, gimmicks. Whatever. What's your favorite Nintendo console?

Mine is looking like the GameCube. There was something really peculiar and enjoyable about the early GameCube titles, and just. GameCube. They feel GameCube. I don't really know how else to describe it. Luigi's Mansion, Pikmin, Super Monkey Ball, WaveRace: Blue Storm. They all have this very unique GameCube feel to them. And GameCube smell? If you don't know what GameCube smell is, you aren't a gamer. And you missed out on the greatest scent nose to man-kind.

I love a lot of the older consoles too, and my DS Lite has more than its share of my life clocked away, but I'm having and have had the most fun with the GameCube and its library.

Oh, and the Wavebird is the single most comfortable controller I've ever held.
