The next installment in my 'Top 5' series. There'll be pleanty more to come, folks. I will eventually slide away from gaming and focus on more mediums of stuff, but for now I'm sticking with what I know best.

Now I want to make it clear ahead of time, this and other lists are in no way, shape, or form meant to exclude anyone's own personal opinions of games, consoles and the like, these are just my opinions, and I'm sticking with them.

One last thing, I'm also including handhelds into this list as well.

Ok, enough of me ranting, on to the list...and more of me ranting.

5 - Sega Genesis

Sega do what Ninten-don't! What does Sega do? BLAST PROCESSING!! Ok...enough of that now. Whether you thought Blast Processing was the real deal or not, the Genesis was amazing at the time and really still is. Awesome games, awesome graphics, the Music...um...BLAST PROCESSING!11 All jokes aside, The Genesis has it's place in time as a great console.

4 - Sega Dreamcast

Ah, the Dreamcast, how we miss thee. While the Dreamcast's failure was tragic, but it was both figuritivly and literaly, ahead of it's time. Amazing graphics, Amazing games, and wait..what...Online Play? As in...you can play with your friends who aren't on your sofa? Awesome.

3 - Nintendo DS

When news of the DS first hit, reactions were mixed. Some loved the idea of new innovation, others saw it as a gimmick, and at the begining, it somewhat was. However, now, the DS has become one of the World's top selling Video Game...ANYTHINGS, and has a large following. With a lot of awesome, unique, and most of all, fun games, the DS will be around for a long, long time. Plus, add in the ability to play any GBA games and no Region Locks and you've got a near limitless number of options for games.

2 - NES/ Nintendo 64

Ah yes, argurably two of Nintendo's greatest points in time. Actually, if you think about it, they are both very simular. Both were revolutionary for they're time, both have given us some of the greatest games of all time, and both started something that would go on to be a standard in many consoles and games. They're so great, that I HAD to put them both on here.

1 - SNES

With a cult following and a huge list of amazing games, the follow up to the NES was well received by all  and is considered by many to be one of the, if not the greatest console of all time, including myself obviously.

Hmm...I guess I should have said Top 6...but no matter.

honorable mentions

Just about all consoles and handhelds...
