    Personally, I'd go for the NES and the Atari 2600. But if you want to collect all the games for a system, go for the Atari 7800 or any other short-lived system.

    Actually, I'd say the opposite. I propose collecting for common systems, not just because they're easier to come across or because they have the "best" games, but because you'll take a while in collecting them all. I've been collecting NES games for roughly 6 or so years now, and I'm FAR from having a complete collection. There's always more to find if you go with a nice large console library.

    But, for my personal preference, NES and Genesis is where it's at. And if you can find those boxed Genesis games (I've been finding a few lately, yay!) then all the better. They're a lot cooler to show off than just the cart itself.

    i try to collect everything i feel is priced right - i wouldn't feel like a collector if i just went after one thing
    but i go out of my way to collect for my favorite system Sega CD - probably my favorite because i wanted it so much when i was a kid and couldn't afford it then.

    Primary collections: NES, SMS, 7800
    Secondary: 2600, Colecovision
    Down the road possibility: SNES

    I can't see myself ever collecting for any system that doesn't have cartridge-based media.

    Value wise, Genesis might be da best bet right now, but you also can't fail with the good old NES.
