What was the worst game console you owned?

[ɌȺĐƗᵾS]

Mine was personally the Nintendo switch. I just didn't like it but it isn't bad. It's just not my thing. Controller are to small and I'm not a fan of hand helds. I'm more of a PlayStation guy myself due to some exclusive games.

No actually the worst I think was a game gear , that had some good games but the thing itself was everything but portable, kind of larg

the joke with the game gear is that now sega made a micro game gear and that new mini collectible console is way too small to be usable.

Atari Lynx

Games were actually decent at that time but it's the worst made handheld where, the first one I had to return since the buttons got stuck after a week. The second (I got because I had games) also got stuck so I had it taken to a repairer to fix then the power went down so I had to rewire it myself.

Xbox. Hated it.

My wife hated Xbox because it only had 1 game she bought it for to play. Which was halo at the time before it was ported to pc.

Playstation is next to leave the house. Don't you worry. Well hopefully one day I can get you fully over to pc.

Tiger Electronics handheld LCD.

this.

I picked up an old disney little mermaid one for £2 and I felt ripped off.

I was about to say the N64 is my worst console, but if you consider tiger electronics as a console, I guess my Simon Quest Tiger E. console wins.

xbox one for me. I sold it for a laptop.

The Game Gear!

I remember playing that Sonic game going through the jungle level and I smelled battery acid...

In hindsight I guess the batteries were going bad in that one at the time. But SIX. WHOLE. BATTERIES!!!

Wii U. Splatoon was fun enough but the console itself was pretty underwhelming. I did buy it knowing what I was getting into so that's really my fault, but still.

TurboExpress used six AA batteries, too. That thing was a beast.

If you weren't willing to pay for XBLG/PS+ then it had the best ports of games. Plus while the wii was terrible, at least they bothered making backwards compatibility built in unlike the PS4 and (early) XB1. Also it was the last console to work with TV's without HDMI.

They bring an era to you and present it in that unique and special way that we basically have to love them even if they're kind of awful sometimes, especially games (looking at you Commodore, geez).

Doesn't mean some aren't better than others. Older ones have to be compared to other's of their era rather than modern ones but that doesn't mean they can't be bad.

I agree and in this I'm an absolute totalitarian that computers (and preferably the extensions thereof which are called "super-computers") .... are supreme or at least superior in that sense of what's possible graphics wise or more specifically: hardware wise on them thus I think that everyone alive should at least at some point own a PC, ea. a Personal Computer and I am pretty you could say persistent in this.

I have a console friend who, definitely agrees with me on this one and this friend didn't even mention that cliche of "they're too expensive" I mean for about 500 euros you could get a working PC that could scale with a console easy especially if you would only upgrade it once or twice along the line.
