I would say Nintendo 64, NES and then DS. The Nintendo 64 had so many original titles and set the standard for 3D platformers, shooters and adventure games. Zelda, Mario 64, Wave Race 64, GoldenEye, Perfect Dark, Banjo, Mario Kart 64, Mario Tennis. Ten years later, it's still my favorite system of all time. I know, it did pioneer many great things (That Sony subsequently ripped off), like rumble features and control sticks. However, it's a little sad that many of these N64 games just haven't aged very well. Banjo-Kazooie and Bomberman Hero aren't nearly as fun as they were years ago, and Perfect Dark and DK64 have both turned into flat-out crap. It's heartbreaking, I tells ya. On the brighter side of things, however, many of the most important titles haven't aged a day: Starfox 64, Ocarina of Time, Mario 64, and Resident Evil 2 are still pristine jewels. |

I would argue that Starfox, Mario Kart and DK Country haven't aged well on the SNES, so it goes both ways. I didn't list Donkey Kong 64 for a reason: it was crap when it was released. Sorry, Rare trying to recreate Mario 64 with Donkey Kong doesn't work for me. Mario Kart 64 (Mario Kart DS) and Mario 64 (Mario 64 DS) both put established Nintendo 64 titles on the DS and sold millions (in the case of Mario Kart DS, several popular tracks). I think that speaks pretty well for how N64 has aged. |

Of course Mario Kart and Mario 64 remakes sold well... They're friggin' Mario. Nintendo could release another Mario is Missing and it'd still sell. That's just how popular the plumber is.
And yes, the first Starfox has not aged well. I guess I could blame Starfox 64, which blew away absolutely everything the first one tried to do.

They might do a sequel to Luigi's Mansion for the Wii. Miyamoto said that it was entirely possible in one interview with EGM.

That'd be fun, I guess. I'd like to see Luigi rescue Daisy, mostly because I've always been a Luigi/Daisy supporter  |

N64's pretty cool. I'd probably be playing Zelda now, if my sister and cousin weren't playing Mario Party.
