You can play 3 retro gaming consoles for the rest of the world’s time

Who do you choosed ?
>>
ps4, ps3 (BC with ps1 and ps2) and I'm set for life
drop in a Wii so I act as that poser kid from class that had a Wii when everyone was rocking a 360
>>
>>727687772
1. fat ps3 (yes its retro) now I have the ps1 and 2 library
2. wii for the game cube and wii library
3. either a saturn or a snes for jrpgs
>>
>>727687772
SNES
PS1
PS2

>>727687772
SNES
PS2
PS4
>>
>>727687772
PS2, Wii, 360
Every other answer is just false
>>
>>727687772
Not counting backwards compatibility because thats coward shit, disregarding the last gen as "retro" implication AND that PC gaming is off-limits as well.
>SNES
>PS2
>PS4
Snes is my favorite system, ps2 has the largest library with lots of unique stuff and PS4 just to have the best console for the few modern things i like to play.

If i can still play PC then it fucking doesnt matter thanks to emulation.

In a world with no backwards compatibility:
PS1, PS2, Dreamcast

If backwards compatibility is factored and I don't have to worry about notoriously short-lived consoles dying on me:
PS3, Dreamcast, SNES
>>
gen 8 is retro now. Fuck
Wii - gamecube backwards compatibility + homebrew
PS3 - launch model for ps1 and ps2
Might as well complete the trinity and snag an Xbox 360 as well. Get some golden age halo

gen 2 was peak vidya
>>
>>727687772
With PS3 I can play PS2 and PS1
With PS4 I can play all the modern shit and emulate anything below PS2
>>
>>727687772
Ps1 and ps2 are enough I don't need that much time to play through the others good games

There's an objectively correct answer
1. 3ds (natively runs 3DS, DS, GBA. Emulates tons in a handheld form factor)
2. WiiU (natively runs WiiU, Wii, and GameCube games emulates tons as well while giving you the gamepad as a psuedo handheld for around the house
3. Backwards compat PS3 will give you PS1-3

Between these 3 you're rocking
>NES, SNES, most N64 games, GameCube, Wii, WiiU
>Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, DS, 3DS
>PlayStation 1-3
>Sega Genesis, Master System, Game Gear
>Lots of retroarch capable stuff like Atari, some MAME, Neo Geo
Only things you really miss with this setup are Sega Dreamcast, Sega Saturn, and PSP games which does suck but it's the setup of 3 consoles with the most coverage by far
>>
>>727689542
>WiiU (natively runs WiiU, Wii, and GameCube
all of which have nothing good to offer
>>
>backwards compatibility troons having to rely on better consoles
kek, obvious answer is ps1, ps2, and x360
>>
>>727689717
>ps1
dogshit console with zero games
>ps2
every single game worth playing has been remastered 3 times by this point
>and x360
dogshit irrelevant console made obsolete by xbox backwards compatibility, also zero games of note left

uncs have the most horrendous trash taste in video games of the entire board, even boomers with their 8bit pixel trash are not as dumb as you fags
>>
>>727687772
360
nes
Saturn

based btfo that uncslop loving ass timmy

>>727689717
It's a hypothetical for the rest of your life and having a PS3 literally covers 2/3 things you mentioned. Why wouldn't you rely on backwards compat?
>360
Oh brain damage, my mistake, carry on little buddy
>>
>>727690851
most ps2 games worth playing got ported to 360. only thing it has are some rhythm games and god hand but i can live without that
>>
>>727690851
no ps3 shit is worth playing
ps1 emulation is garbo and can't even do 240p
ps2 games are all bugged
360 has dead rising
ps3 serves no purpose
