I played the role of a mega cheek, I voted Wii for the Gamecube B/C. Smash Bros Melee, Metroid Prime, F-Zero GX, Wii Sports and Mario Strikers Charged are my 5 reasons.
Having NES/SNES as the same category is like having Master System/Mega Drive or PSOne/PS2.
Anyway, I voted Wii, simply because it's fun on its own, plays Gamecube games and has NES, SNES, Mega Drive and Turbografix games available, it covers a lot of ground.
32 isn't that bad, if you also happen to look like a 20 year old
I voted NES / SNES because those were the first real systems where I'd go home from school, grab some food and lock myself in my room playing them until like 1 or 2 in the morning. Surprisingly, my grades were not that great!

I voted for PsOne, cos it had FFVII, LMA Manager, ISS, Fifa, Colin McRae, Crash Team Racing, Cool Boarders 2, Music, Spyro - everything! I didn't have a SNES, only a Mega Drive, and that was pretty good too, although not as good.

I didn't vote, because I enjoyed the SNES games as much as the PS2 games. However, the SNES has more original and fun games for me so I'll vote on the SNES now.
I'm in exactly the same boat as Boothman here, Mega Drive ftw. Crash Bandicoot Warped was pretty cool too, and Music 2000 was even better Game I played most I think was Gran Turismo 2. I remember making some awesome tunes on that, with some funky video crap, haha.
The thing with the N64 was that it didn't have a great selection of games.. you had Mario 64, MarioKart 64 and Zelda OoT... OH AND GOLDENEYE/PERFECT DARK!! Many years spent there But still missed FFVII at the time.
I think psone (or psx as it was called in my time) comes second for me. It had some great games like Vigilante 8, Spyro (the first one), the Crash bandicoot games (especially part 2) Metal gear solid, FF7, Rock&roll racing 2, Croc (even tho that one seems pretty crap now), Tekken 2 and 3, Ridge racer type 4 and some games I forgot about. but I had a lotta fun with that thing.
I agree with Asparagus, I don't really get why the NES and SNES should be together, the most fun time I had with the NES was repairing it.
Does anybody think the Gamecube was a real bummer btw?

Don't forget it also had Ogre Battle 64, Lego Racers (don't laugh, this version of the game is sooo much fun), and probably the best Harvest Moon game too.
I was more-or-less a Nintendo fanboy forever, and it took me a long while before I bothered to get a PS1. When I did, man, I had a ton of fun on that thing playing games like Suikoden, Vandal Hearts, Diablo.. I'd rate that 3rd on my list.

I loved the GameCube. At the time. Looking back it's kinda... Not very good. Only Smash Bros Melee is any good. POSSIBLY Wario Ware, too but that got repetative... I still like the GBA one for some reason though :S
Gamecube isn't bad at all. I still have mine hooked up and play it. Mario Superstar Baseball, Smash Bros (although I find the contantly zooming in / out camera ultra-annoying), Zelda collection, Windwaker.. The gameboy player is what I use on it mostly, so I guess I like the Cube better because it acts as the go-between for my GBA and a larger screen.

The only good part about the GC was all the first party titles (Giest, Metroid Prime, Melee, Wind Waker, Eternal Darkness) and a few third party ones (RE4, Tales of Symphonia).
The game that gets the most play in my house on the cube is easily Robotech: Battlecry though.
Didn't that Robotech game have a lot of invisible ceilings / walls in the city levels? Maybe it was another game, I forget.
I remember one day way before kids me and my friend went to the video store and rented volumes 1-5 of the entire original Robotech series. We must've watched it for like 10 hours at least, it was awesome. And then at the end they go and DESTROY THE WORLD and we were all SAY WHAAAATT!???.
It was the best until we realized that there was a volume 6 that the store didn't have and I've never seen to this day
Rick's Valkyrie was awesome, but I think my favorite was Max's (the blue one). I liked how they didn't make the main star the best pilot too.

I voted for the Nintendo 64. Gamecube was also cool, but ah, so many great games on the N64. Super Smash Brothers, Goldeneye, Duke Nukem 64, Duke Nukem: Zero Hour, Mario 64, Mario Kart, Ocarina of Time, Star Wars Racing, Perfect Dark...
Yeah, after the end of the Earth, there's one more disc to the Macross Saga. Then it picks up like 20 years later (Masters Saga) with Dana (Max and Miriya's baby) being all grown up and fighting the Robotech Masters while most of the SDF1 crew is off galavanting the galaxy (and fighting the Invid apparently). After that it goes maybe another 5 year into the future (New Generation) after the Invid have invaded earth.
After that, there's the Shadow Chronicles, the brand new movie that just came out like 6 months ago; which was allright, but there was very little going on (Though we learn where Admiral Hunter has been all this time).
You are thinking correctly about the game though Axel. It's not a great game, but it is fun, moreso than Robotech: Invasion (The second game which was an F/3rd person shooter) was. But you could transform into a bike which was kinda fun. I wish they'd make a next generation Robotech, one where you could go inside the ships and stuff. I've seen more than one Veritech blast it's way into a Zentradi ship on the show; and it'd be great to do that in a game. Sadly, I don't think we'll be seeing anymore Robotech games for a while though; niether of those two games really did well.
I didn't have a console until the early ninties due to the fact in britain we had a huge choice of cheap home computers that were released well before the 8 bit consoles,
we got the Master system in 1986 and the nes in 1987 i think, we had Spectrums and commodore 64's since 1982/83
(well we did get the first generation stuff like Atari 2600)
I was really behind with gaming, for some reason I didn't get what was so hot about videogames till I was 13 or 14. Got a SNES as my first console when the PSX and N64 were already released.
I was more of a Sega fanboy so my early gaming life was simply Master System and Megadrive. Yet most of the time I played the PC more often with oldies such as Monkey Island and King's Quest. Though when we got the N64 I can safely say I had most fun on that. It was amazing.
Right now I'm having fun with the Wii which is also amazing.
