Best console of all time?

What's the best console of all time in your opnion? In my opnion the SNES, PS1, GBA are the holy trinity of consoles. The GBA is my favourite system since it's the home to great games and also the best control scheme ever. Incredibly simple but effective.

I love the Xbox 360 (despite the early hardware issues it had)

The 3DS is also a great console, it's not exactly something I play for long sessions but it's wonderful when you're doing shorter sessions
(the B button on my 3DS is broken right now though which makes it hard for me to play it much, it still registers inputs but you have to press it down REALLY hard for it to work which is very uncomfortable to play, I'll have to look into getting that fixed, also screen scratches but those aren't quite as annoying)

SNES is a good shout, and my personal favourite is the N64, but PS2 is the correct answer here.
The N64 is legendary. One of the greatest games of all time Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time is on the N64. Super Mario 64 too. But man do I hate the controls. The PS2 had a great library great power and yeah it's legendary.

The Xbox 360 is great. The b button is essential so you better do fix it lol. The 3DS had such great Pokemon games it also had a Yokai Watch game.

..And the Switch 2 could trip on its face.
The Switch 2 was the console I think I genuinely was waiting to see how it would turn out. Needless to say it was disappointing. Nintendo fanboys are gonna suck it but it is a refresh of the switch moreso than a new console. I'm a Nintendo fanboy because yeah the SNES and GBA are goated along with the GBC and GB but I can criticise them. They really dropped the ball with the Switch 2. Hopefully they make a comeback.

Doug Bowser's retired, we might have hope. But yeah, the games (especially first party) all feel incomplete, as someone who's played MK World, I can say, open world's empty, intermissions suck, the tracks are only okay, and the fact that you can't pick custom wheels, fliders, and cars, and have to pick all 3 at once sucks. I'd rather play MK8. Or better yet, Sonic Racing Crossworlds, actually coming to Switch 1. The only thing I'm even excited for is Kirby Air Riders, because Sakurai actually put effort, love, and time into it.

As someone who's never played console I have to agree, my pcs not great but It can easily run a bunch of basic emulators if I want, and I'd have access to basically 4 decades of games immediately
We're lucky to live in this era. Any ten year old computer can run anything from the Gameboy to PS2. Even my potato can run thousands of games easily.

I personally never liked Kirby. It's just not for me I like platformer of the likes of Klonoa more. Sakurai is incredibly passionate for Kirby so no wonder Kirby is still great.
