I'd have to say the NES with the 64 a very close second. With the NES a friend of mine and I used to ride our bikes down to a store that rented games for $2 a day. Get it on a Saturday, and it wouldn't be due back until Monday because the store was closed on Sundays. For that reason I owned very few games but played a shitload.
The 64 for pretty much the same reason Bobo stated. I was in college and 4 player on Goldeneye and Perfect Dark were big favorites with my group of friends. Not to mention the WCW games from THQ as well as their Wrestlemania (where we all began to create crazy fucking characters to fight one another with).

It tends to put you immediately at a disadvantage and IMO is a sign of true weakness.
This is true both in politics and on the internet."
