N64, and here's why -

N64 has a viable contender for "best/most important gamer ever" in almost every major game genre I tend to play. FPS? Goldeneye. Platformer? Mario 64. RPG? Zelda OoT. Wrestling game (I like these)? WWF No Mercy. Star Wars (practically a genre unto itself)? SotE.

Plus I really liked the controller.

Star Wars Shadows of the Empire was sorely underrated, IMO...one of my very favorite games to this day. If you like wrestling, WWF No Mercy is way out of date in terms of the wrestlers and stuff...but still provide the best "feel" when compared to later wrestling games.

I had the N64 versions...but yeah, I thought they were great - much better than the Twisted Metal titles at the time, IMO.

Hey.

I am looking to buy a PS2 console and I really want to play through Champions of Norrath with a friend of mine...but I know that the game has issues with many PS2s. In my old PS2 fat (which I am replacing because I broke) , the game wouldnt even start up correctly...

So, the question is - which model series of PS2s is definitely compatible with Champions of Norrath? Which version/series should I buy? The only new console I can find in stock online is the white bundle with Singstar off Amazon (here)...but this was released in 2007 and I don't know what series it is or if it is a good series to get.

Any suggestions/advice?

Thank you!
