Ranking Nintendo's consoles from Best to Worst

Essential Games:
Advance Wars - Dual Strike
Trauma Center - Under the Knife
Phoenix Wright - Ace Attorney
The World Ends With You
New Super Mario Bros

Has a number of good ports and sequels. Not so many good original exclusives. Borrows the DS's design with some good online features. The 3D effect doesn't matter much.

Was just a minor upgrade above the classic Gameboy. Had a short life span due to Game Boy Advance coming around the corner.

Essential Games:
Zelda - Oracle of Seasons
Zelda - Oracle of Ages
Zelda - Link's Awakening DX
Pokemon Gold & Silver
Wario Land 3

This flop was poorly designed, neither good for portable nor home use. Has few games, and the graphics are only red and black for some reason.

Essential Games: None
