If you got stranded somewhere with one gaming system & it's entire library of games, which would you choose? Just a thought. I'm not sure if this has been discussed previously on the boards. If so, please let me know. i would like to see what people think is the G.O.A.T.

I like my Lynx but this system was on life support for most of its career. The library never really reached the depth of any generation of GameBoy. It was very sophisticated for its day but the Tramiel Atari was an awful company that almost nobody wanted to do business with regardless of how good the platform was.

The Lynx is a great item to own but historically it's an also-ran.

SNES (or Super Famicom so I could play all the Japan-only games too......), no question.

And all I would need is Tetris Attack.

Mmm, yeah.

Jaguar was the greatest of all time. Have you ever played Tempest 2000?! or how about Wolfenstein 3D?! or Tempest 2000?!

Probably the dreamcast or xbox, if you take into account backwards compatibility.

Oh yeah, the lynx (the newer version) is so thick it actually hurts my hands to hold it for an extended periods. And I've got normal-sized hands, before anybody asks.

Easily Xbox is 1st for me. Then GameCube, SNES, Dreamcast, and the PS2 in that order.

If I chose PS2, would I get all the PSone library, too? Probably not, so I'll go with PSone -- lots of RPGs. Though, a portable would be nice to play from up in the trees where predators couldn't reach me.

NES of course. By far the most games worth playing and replaying.
