Nintendo's Switch 2: A Look Back at Nintendo's Console Legacy
Nintendo's recently unveiled Switch 2 marks another chapter in its rich history of gaming hardware. With over four decades of console innovation, the company's track record is impressive, spanning eight home consoles and five handheld systems. But which reigns supreme? This ranking considers both hardware innovation and the lasting impact of each console's game library.
My personal top tier includes the NES, holding a special place due to nostalgic memories of classic titles like Super Mario Bros. and Mega Man 2. The Switch also earns a top spot, its innovative hybrid design and exceptional game library (featuring masterpieces like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and Super Mario Odyssey) cementing its place among Nintendo's best.
