With the unveiling of the Switch 2, Nintendo has finally confirmed its latest console. Boasting over 40 years of experience in video game hardware, expectations are high, even if initial impressions suggest a more cautious approach this time. If you're anticipating this upcoming console, we've delved into all the Switch 2 trailer details. But for now, let's take a trip down memory lane.
Nintendo has released eight home consoles (NES, Super NES, Nintendo 64, GameCube, Wii, Wii U, and Switch) and five handhelds (Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, DS, and 3DS) over the past five decades. But which reigns supreme? I've ranked them using an IGN Tier List, considering both hardware innovation and the quality and legacy of each console's game library. See my personal ranking below:
The NES holds a special place for me; playing Super Mario Bros., Mega Man 2, and the challenging Hook as a five-year-old created lasting memories, hence its S-tier placement. The Switch's innovative hybrid design (stick drift aside!) and its stellar game library, including The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and Super Mario Odyssey, earns it a spot alongside the NES at the top.
