Every Nintendo Console Tier List
Nintendo's Switch 2 is finally here, marking another chapter in the company's impressive 40+ year history of gaming hardware. While initial impressions suggest a cautious approach, we're eager to see what Nintendo has up its sleeve. This article dives into the Switch 2 trailer details and offers a retrospective look at Nintendo's console history.
Nintendo boasts eight home consoles (NES, SNES, N64, GameCube, Wii, Wii U, and Switch) and five handhelds (Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, DS, and 3DS). But which reigns supreme? This ranking considers both hardware innovation and the quality and lasting impact of each console's game library.
My personal top tier includes the NES, fueled by nostalgic memories of classic titles like Super Mario Bros. and Mega Man 2. The Switch's innovative hybrid design and stellar game library (Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Super Mario Odyssey) also earn it a top spot.
Disagree? Feel the Virtual Boy surpasses the N64? Create your own Nintendo console tier list and compare your rankings (S, A, B, C, and D tiers) with the IGN community.
