 Hm. If I had to pick one of the systems listed above, I would pick either the Playstation 2, or the Playstation 3. I have no real interest in the PS3 as far as the next generation goes. I'm far more interested in the Revolution. However, I have listed it here, as I would most probably choose the Playstation 2, since it can play both PSX and PS2 games. If the Playstation 3 is fully backwards compatible (I don't know if it is), and can play PSX, PS2 and PS3 games, then I see no reason not to pick that over what I would have otherwise chosen.

 Simply put, combined, the PSX and PS2 house more of my favorite games than any other system.

 I also understand it's taboo to many of you to even own a system created by a company other than Nintendo, but I'm certain the more intelligent of you aren't as narrow minded and are considerate enough of other people's preferences as to understand that opinions differ.

Once it's complete, the Rev. Definitely. No competition.

The Revolution is going to pwn all. Can't wait to start downloading all of the games I missed out on buying. I'll need a way to dispose of my GameCube by then. If none of my friends want it I can make an offer here, I guess. I mean, if it does everything that the GameCube does, there's no point for me to keep it.

Keep it for something useful,like, a sibling, younger person, or a time capsule! Don't just sell it, unless you make good money. ^_^

We sould have maybe 2 choices because I own all of the current consoles and I picked a handheld.

PaperMario

Choosing the Rev would just be too easy, so I chose N64. With games like Banjo-Kazooie, Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, and Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, it's just the best choice.

I actually have a PS2 and enjoy playing it.. just not as much as my Nintendo systems.  The PS2 has some pretty good games on it and so does the PS1.  The Final Fantasy games as well as the other RPGs the Playstation offers are really hard to pass up.  DDR is also a guilty pleasure of mine.

The one system I don't have any sympathy for, however, is the Xbox.  I'm sorry, I'm still just stuck on the idea that Microsoft has entered the gaming industry for profit and not for games.

And they stole Rare from Nintendo. Boo.

A Filipino variation of the egg roll. It consists of more meat, less vegetable and is generally better tasting. :p

Why is the Revolution a choice? It isn't even out yet.

Because you already know what it will be like. Would you want it as your ONLY system, like the question asks?

It's rather funny you say that, Khold, since the Revolution is more or less the only system we actually have no idea what it will be like.

Microsoft didn't steal Rare. Nintendo didn't want to renew thier contract and dumped thier stocks so Microsoft took the oppurtunity to buy them. Unfortunately, they haven't made any hits since then.

I chose the SNES since it's what I grew up with and it has so many masterpieces on it. DS came very close though.
As a game that requires six friends, an HDTV, and skill, I can see why the majority of TMK is going to hate on it hard.

I know, but we all know mostly what the gameplay will be like.
