Genesis, followed closely by Saturn.

Saturn

Genesis because nostalgia, but also for the sheer amount of great games.

Dreamcast is a close second and then finally the Master System.

I can't put the Saturn on the list because I've never played it.

A friend gifted me one years ago, it had a broken power switch, and I could only turn it on and off by plugging/unplugging it from the wall, and I had no games for it, so I never actually got to use it for anything other than a CD player.

i like ps 3

Dreamcast. Not just my favorite Sega console, I seriously doubt I'll ever love another console as much.

Saturb

Saturn > Dreamcast = Mega Drive > Master System

But I love them all.

Saturn lol

Master System - Never played a real one. I own a Power Base Converter, Phantasy Star and Hang-On, could never find any other good titles for it.

Genesis - I missed out on the better non-Sonic titles, but after collecting some good Sega CD and 32X titles, I've been enjoying it more now than I ever did as a kid

Saturn - I love the console, but I have a hard time getting into the games on it since most of them have aged poorly. I have 35 games for it and haven't finished even half of them.

Dreamcast - Definitely my favorite. a wide variety of games and the quality is excellent.

>>2249412
Saturn then Genesis (with 32X and CD). still warming up to Dreamcast a little and I have yet to get a Master System or Game Gear

>>2249620
To be fair, the good Master System games are really hard to find.

>>2249448
Beat me to it

It's a tie between Genesis and Saturn.

SEGA Genesis

>>2249813
i'm so glad i got a CIB copy before the prices got retarded

>>2249820
>tfw the Japanese version goes for $450+

>>2249620
The Sega DreamCast was probably the most underrated system of all time, it had really good network and was ahead of it's time.

>>2249820

Damn nigga, I have a cart with a small scuff that cost me 30, two years ago.

I've been waiting for a cardboard box with manual to go up on ebay for a good price. I've seen the plastic cases of it but I don't know if that a reproduction or not.

>>2249840
i don't wanna inadvertently make you spend more money by stimulating the inner collector in you, but IIRC the cardboard case version is a reissue of the original clamshell version.

the game will be the same though.

Sega Genesis. I still play Genesis and Sega CD games.

Only ever played a Saturn a few times in my life, one of my friends had one with Nights Into Dreams, and a racing game, think it was Gran Turismo or something, as well as Bomberman.
Oh damn that Bomberman was fun multiplayer.
I want a Saturn, but I seriously can't afford it and the games to go with it.

>>2249412
Dreamcast is my all time favorite console. Genesis is my second favorite due to old school $onic. I've owned a Saturn at one point but since I'm a college student I can barely afford the good games

Never owned a Master System though.

>>2249850

Thanks anon.

Saturn is the best

Best girl too

>>2250351

how the hell is dreamcast a fave? it has no games. The ones people always mention aren't even that good

Crazy Taxi - Meh
Jet Set Radio - Fucking Meh
House of the dead - NO GUN

Mega Drive or die

>>2250369
People like the DC because of the arcade ports. They were essentially 1:1 conversions because the Sega Naomi arcade system is identical hardware aside from having more memory.

>>2250369
>Your post
Meh. You should seek out more than three titles on the system. But I'll grant you that Crazy Taxi isn't as fun as in the arcades and that Jet Set is a tad overrated.
Also
>no gun
See pic.

>>2250363
>>2250351
more

>>2249412
Favorite games by platform.
>SG-1000: Congo Bongo
>Sega Mark III: Ninja Gaiden
>Mega Drive: Rolling Thunder 3
>Game Gear: The G.G. Shinobi
>Sega Saturn: Silhouette Mirage
>Dreamcast: Zombie Revenge

>tfw you want them all but you don't have the space to stockpile consoles in your room
Mega Drive CD and a PBC it is.

>>2249412
For me it's a tie between the Genesis and the Dreamcast.
I wasn't even aware the SMS/SS/GG even existed when i was a kid but i had a Genesis and later on a Dreamcast and loved them.

>>2250429
that gun only came out in the nippon though cause muh columbine.

>>2250394
I will not deny the accuracy and quality of the arcade ports the problem is other sega consoles just destroy those in sheer quantity of good games. Except for the master system haha

>>2250662
1.) Good is, mostly, subjective
2.) The Dreamcast has plenty of good games available for it

>>2250665
Every sega system has plenty of good games, the dreamcast just doesnt have enough because of its shortened life span.

It's gotta be Mega Drive.
Dreamcast makes a close second.

>>2250662
>that gun only came out in the nippon though
Europe and rest of the world too. It was only you that got snubbed, and got an officially licensed gun by Mad Catz shortly afterwards instead (pic related).

>>2250651
>inb4 the britfags have a tantrum not understanding that sega consoles weren't as popular in the US
I don't mention euros because the brits seem to be the only ones that actually do this.

>>2250671
A high quality/quantity ratio means that at least 2/3ds of its bigger than the GameCube's library is competent to good, and new games are still being made for it. Seriously, rarely has there been a system so free of shovelware.

>>2250674
Light gun games were briefly taboo in 'murrica after the Columbine shootings.

the sega pico but you've probably never heard of it you filthy casual shitbabby

>>2250708
That was what I was saying, that Mad Catz gun >>2250674 was officially licensed from Sega and was what 'murrica got after the Columbine outcry settled down. Not to speak of a few unlicenced ones. So claiming that the US Dreamcast didn't get any light guns or light gun games is false.

Gen. There is no other real answer. If you say Saturn or Dreamcast, you probably weren't born yet when the gen was out in full force.

The best

>>2249412
DreamCast isn't /vr/. Dunno why it's there.

>>2250873
Nice meme, but in case you are serous.

>This board is for the discussion of classic, or "retro" games. Retro gaming means consoles, computer games, arcade games (including pinball) and any other forms of video games on platforms launched in 1999 and earlier. With the release of the 8th generation of consoles, the Sega Dreamcast will now be considered "retro", though the remainder of the sixth generation (Xbox, PS2, GameCube) will not.

Seriously, read the sticky until you accept that.

>>2250868
The others need more art too

I am excited at all the Saturn love in this thread.
Saturn slightly > Genesis > Dreamcast > Master System, but I love all the Sega consoles, except their handhelds which kinda sucked

What are some good SG-1000/SC-3000 games? I'm thinking of getting the latter since they actually sold some here in yuropooria.

>>2249412
Have to say Dreamcast but Saturn is a close second.

>>2250369
>NO GUN
Does the job of village idiot pay well?

>>2250503
They take very little space to stockpile. They do take space to display. I have several of each with the exception of the SMS. Takes up one shelf in a cabinet.

I've only played Genesis and Game Gear. My first gaming memory was playing one of the Sonics (It was either 1 or 2) at a cousin's house. My first system ever was Game Gear, and I used to play Sonic 2, World Series Baseball, and the Bearstein Bears on that shit all the time. If I had to pick one of those two, probably Genesis.

I'd love to get a Dreamcast someday though.

Mega Drive > Mega CD > Saturn > Dreamcast > Master System > Game Gear > 32X

>>2249412
Saturn, DC, Genesis, GG/SMS, in that order.

The DC is impressive as fuck, but I play my Saturn a lot more.

>random fact no one wanted: the Game Gear is capable of displaying a larger gamut of colors than the Genesis, so in particular situations, a Game Gear game can look better than a Genesis one (at least in stills)

I hate putting the Saturn or the DC so low, but eh:

1. Genesis
2. Sega Fucking Master System
3. Dreamcast
4. Saturn
5. Game Gear

Genesis, then Dreamcast/Saturn, then Game Gear/Master System.

I've never played the previous systems.

very hard call between genesis and saturn

both are superior in specific genres

They're all great, the competition was simply a tad better at times.

>>2249412
>implying Sega made a console that didn't have shit sound until the Dreamcast

>>2259583
Intentional foul - incorrect numbering

>>2249412
Dreamcast by far

Did the Saturn have any good third party games? It seems like all their best ones are either First or Second-party games

Obviously this excludes Capcom's games.

>>2260203
>Did the Saturn have any good third party games?
Yes, but most of them weren't localized because of Sega of America's piss poor business decisions.

>>2260203
Bulk Slash
Langrisser
Devil Summoner
Baroque
Lunar remakes
Princess Crown
DoA
Guardian Heroes
Silhouette Mirage
Radiant Silvergun

The Power Base Converter was made to fit in a Model 1 Genesis, and I can vouch it fits in a Sega CDX.

But does it fit in the WonderMega?

I can only assume it doesn't physically or technologically work on a Model 3 Genesis. It also doesn't work if a 32X is involved despite fitting in one.

Genesis>Saturn>Dreamcast>Game Gear

Never owned a SMS.

>>2260269
Only if you disassemble it, otherwise the shell shape won't let you plug the PBC in.
