    I vote DS lite and X-box 360.DS lite:I have one.X-box 360:I like the game rock band.

  5. It may not be on here but I think the X-Boxis the best game console. I just wish they still made games for it.

    I like the Wii the most because it has zelda twilight princess,super mario galaxy,and warioware smooth moves. Which I think are the best games ever.The Ds is my second favorite because of zelda phantom hourglass.And the Psp is my third favorite because of daxter.My 4th and 5th favorites are the X-box 360 and the Ps3.
