The 10 Worst Video Game Consoles Of All Time
gearfuse.com — The console wars were more ferocious than any other war in history. You could say they top the Vietnam War, but you won ’t. Many companies would rise and fall through the video game crash of 1983, yet only one would prevail to be the most terrible...

- chenshaoming08, on 05/20/2008, -7/+4looks good!
- Tahiri, on 05/20/2008, -4/+5Poor Virtual Boy. I love it more than my Wii
- duggtodeath, on 05/20/2008, -4/+6Okay, enough with the Top 10 lists being submitted to digg every other minute. Yes, we get it, the Virtual Boy was a colossal failure. Yes, the Phantom was *gasp* a phantom. And the Jaguar has a horrible controller You gonna make a Top 10 Sucky Cars list next? Will the Ford Pinto be featured? Find some other way to drive traffic to your site, *****-eater.
- MadxHatTeR, on 05/20/2008, -2/+10Overall good list, but I completely disagree with putting the wii on the list.
- castevens, on 05/20/2008, -1/+2I think the Wii would earn more respect if the quality of some of the games went up.
- penguin360, on 05/21/2008, -0/+1i'm not saying i hate my wii . far from it. i just wish they'd come out with some good third party games... as a game developer i'm looking forward to the Quantum 3 engine. but it's The game that makes the console not the engine
- castevens, on 05/20/2008, -1/+2I think the Wii would earn more respect if the quality of some of the games went up.
- santasing, on 05/20/2008, -5/+2Wii's on the list. My how far we have come since last year.
- BlueSkyfish, on 05/20/2008, -1/+9Someone is a fanboy.
- MadxHatTeR, on 05/21/2008, -0/+0Thats a bit presumptuous don't you think? simply because someone says they don't think the Wii is one of "the worst video game consoles of all time." I don't even own a Wii, but I've played it and from the games I played It easily beats the original xbox.
- R3Dirkulous, on 05/20/2008, -2/+9... this whole article was made just to bash the wii and I've seen it before. Kinda sad that someone would go this far just to put down the wii. Get over it, the wii is dominating right now, and it does have plenty of appealing games. Gimmick? Nintendo is trying to do something new. If it's such a gimmick than why is microsoft and sony developing a similar protocol for their systems? Pretty soon the next "nex gen" systems will all shy away from standard controls. But you know what, all the Microsoft and Sony supporters will see it as a breakthrough instead of following in Nintendo's footsteps.
- H1tchh1k3r, on 05/20/2008, -1/+6"Now, I’m having my hands separated and waving around during game play like a 12-year-old kid with hyperactive disorder who just smoked PCP."
I'm guessing this guy doesn't even own the console and is just basing it off of the commercials? - chenshaoming08, on 05/20/2008, -1/+4surprise surprise, I expected the "Vii" to make the list but no
- fydo, on 05/20/2008, -1/+8Buried. Seemed like a solid list, but after reading the #1 entry on the list, the true purpose of the article showed through. The guy obviously has never owned or even tried playing the Wii.
- daftfunk1, on 05/20/2008, -3/+1If the Sega Saturn is not on this list then how can this guy even be taken seriously? The Wii is the worst console of all time... get real buddy.
- whitezombie420, on 05/20/2008, -0/+2"The Wii is the worst console of all time?... get real buddy. "
i think thats what you meant.
- whitezombie420, on 05/20/2008, -0/+2"The Wii is the worst console of all time?... get real buddy. "
- BrashRash, on 05/20/2008, -4/+0I love the Wii. It's just not new technology. Nor is it as fun as any system listed before it on this list.
- wontstoptalking, on 05/20/2008, -1/+1This is not going to go down well with Diggers....
- wontstoptalking, on 05/20/2008, -0/+1I have a TurboGrafX from the late 80's early 90's. Why did I buy that? Actually, it was pretty cool.
- MCWarriors, on 05/20/2008, -0/+2Allright, just because the Wii is not as powerful as the Xbox360 or PS3, does not make it deserving of a spot on this list. Its innovation and "outside the mold" attitude makes it one of the best of all time. Don't bash it because it wont play your Halo 3 disk....
- Huangism, on 05/20/2008, -1/+3buried for "top whatever"
- whitezombie420, on 05/20/2008, -2/+2yea, that article was pretty gay. it was interesting until i got to number one and saw it was just a setup to bash the wii. the system is awesome, and for the money a better investment. i thought about getting an xbox and then realized the only game i would ever play was halo 3, on nintendo i play the ***** out several games and have all the vc games to choose from. and yes that is a selling point because i dont want to hook up my old nes and snes when i could just pick up the wiimote.
- BrashRash, on 05/20/2008, -0/+1These are clearly systems he's chosen specifically because of their cult status.
- pitfallharry, on 05/21/2008, -0/+1Buried for bashing Intellivision.
