The Switch 2 may be garnering headlines now, but is it really the greatest of all Nintendo consoles? @RollingStone’s CT Jones writes a love letter to the Nintendo DS. “I had been using a worn Game Boy Advance SP, hard fought from my brothers’ clutches with the taped-on rechargeable battery pack to prove it,” they write. “But my Nintendo DS was the first game console in our house that was mine and mine alone.” We want to know, which is your all-time favorite Nintendo console (excluding the Switch 2, which we’re assuming most of you haven’t had the chance to try yet, consoles that weren’t widely available, and straightforward upgrades of existing models)? Tell us in the comments which was your all-time favorite Nintendo peripheral/accessory — we were fans of the GameCube bongos.

Well, I mean, maybe let’s wait until it has a few more games before we go throwing around superlatives like that.
@[email protected] To be fair, we’re not sure anyone is throwing around such grandiose statements (apart from us in our excitement at polling the fediverse about consoles)!
@[email protected] I suspect that for most of us the best Nintendo console is the one we had when we were 8-12. For me that’s the SNES.
But I’ve had a whole lot of fun with all of them.
Maybe not the Virtual Boy. But I rented it for a weekend and Wario Land was pretty good.
