    Default In no particular order

    Atari 8-bit
    Atari 2600
    Vectrex
    Lynx
    NES
    Channel F
    Dreamcast (who DIDN'T put this on their list?)
    PS2 today, Xbox tomorrow, PS2 the next day, Xbox the next, etc.

    There just isn't much else I have to put up there with them systems there. Yeehaw. I like collecting systems not worth playing, but if I had to get rid of all the collecting systems, as in collecting dust, I would be left with those up there.

    NGPC
    PS-X
    GBA
    Genesis
    SNES
    DC

    1. Sega Dreamcast - My favourite system ever. It impressed me on release date and has lost none of it's brilliance, charm and innovation. Best library of games, excellent controller, sexy design, it's Sega - need I go on?

    2. Super NES - Second to the Dreamcast, and Nintendo's BEST console ever. My first console too is home to my favourite video game ever (Stunt Race FX), an excellent controller, marvellous sprite based graphics (only bettered by the Neo Geo) and just an excellent and diverse game library.

    3. Microsoft Xbox - Microsoft showed us how a modern gaming console SHOULD be done. I think I'll be playing this for a good long time to come (largely due to the Sega goodness).

    4. Nintendo 64 - I had a five year love affair with this vastly underrated and unfairly criticised console. Home to some of my favourite games and also my most used multiplayer console.

    5. Sony PlayStation 2 - It's just amazing what it can do. Games (PSX AND PS2), music, DVD movies, online gaming. It's the embodiment for what many manufacturers tried to achieve in the early 90's with the multimedia revolution (CD-i, Amiga CD-32, 3DO etc).

    6. Sega Saturn - Like the Dreamcast did in 1999, the Saturn blew me away in 1995 and I would've bought one 'back in the day' if it weren't for the high price tag. I mean, Sega Rally, Daytona, Virtua Fighter! In my own home! Brilliant!

    7. Sega Game Gear - My first handheld gaming experience that would make my interest in handhelds greater than that of console gaming.

    8. Atari Lynx - The first handheld I owned. It's still an impressive unit to this day.

    9. Sega Master System - A technological marvel compared to it's competition, which still impresses me to this day with what developers were able to do graphically and audially.

    10. Nintendo Entertainment System - Home to games which were/are just damned good fun, and despite my semi-apathetic attitude towards it, I get a real kick out of some of those games (e.g. Tennis!).

    IN order of preference:
    DREAMCAST: What else can be said about this great system, great all-around system, good, clean 3-D and 2-D perfection that equals if not exceeding the mighty Neo-Geo, a 2-D fighter fans wet dream!
    SNES: Streetfighter 2 , the REAL final fantasy games part3 anyone? actraiser,super mario world, Super Metroid..the list goes on and on.
    Turbographix-16: Ninja Spirits and Splatterhouse, oh yeah! and hey, so I liked keith courage in alpha zones, so what :P
    Playstation: Metal Gear Solid,Castlevania and my RE games all make for a tasty treat indeed.
    Saturn: another great 2-D machine, I even had my favorite RPG of all time panzer dragoon saga! I miss my Saturn.
    Atari2600: my first gaming system, i was an asteroids addict.
    Gamecube: I plan on buying the Zelda bundle and I will be in gamer heaven!
    N.E.S. : Zelda and the original Metroid (still my fav metroid)
    XBox: IM getting another one, my first one was stolen.
    Playstation2: some great games, in all reallity a poorly designed system.
    Genesis: Shadow dancer was my fav, Sonic, Phantasy Star 2, those were the days.

    In order from first to last

    Sega Genesis:
    The first console I bought with my own money. Spent a summer saving enough money to get it. Sega does what Nintendon't.

    NES:
    Home to many of my all-time favorite games such as Tecmo Super Bowl and River City Ransom.

    Dreamcast:
    This system really got me back into gaming. NFL2K sold me. Not very many crappy games either.

    Atari 2600:
    Never owned one but grandma had one at her house for us kids to play with and it made some painful family reunions tolerable.

    Neo Geo Pocket Color:
    I bought this little pint sized giant on a whim and was very captivated by its fun charming graphics and games.

    Virtual Boy:
    Didn't get one of these until a few years ago and while I don't enjoy that many of its games I'm very intrigued by this system and what might have been.

    SNES:
    Home of my favorite Zelda game.

    Gameboy Advance SP:
    The handheld system I always wanted as a kid too bad I don't have kid hands anymore. Still take this system everywhere.

    Sega Saturn :
    Nights what a great game

    TG-16:
    Didn't get one untill earlier this year and I'm sorry I missed out on this gem all these years.

    my favorite is a tie between a modded supergrafx with the cd attachment and a nice supergun to play neo geo games, and other various jamma\pcb boards.

    the rest in no particular order

    nes
    snes
    model 1 genesis with cd attachment and 32X
    ps2 since it plays 1 and 2
    sega saturn
    xbox (just for the live CHAOS)
    blah blah blah
    Currently looking to trade for Magical Chase any version, and especially Dynastic Hero USA version. I have Samurai Shodown V Special MVS, lots of other MVS titles, and tons of games. Check out my profile over at http://gametz.com/user/greedostick.html if you are looking to get rid of one.
