If I can’t vote for the neogeo or ngpc systems in this thread, then I’ll have to go with the original backwards compatible 60gig ps3 and the psp.
In terms of modern systems, the Wii has the best library, all things considered. You can keep your Playstations and X-Boxes.
If you're going with backward compatibility for the PS3, shouldn't the Vita be picked for the same reason?If I can’t vote for the neogeo or ngpc systems in this thread, then I’ll have to go with the original backwards compatible 60gig ps3 and the psp.

Ah, good point. It's been so long since I'd thought about it that I forgot not all PSP games were available digitally. Loosely related, this reminded me how irritating it was that some PSone games were briefly compatible with Vita and then yanked. As I recall Crash Team Racing was one such game.Sup Yoshi, I guess I wasn’t considering the ability to hack the vita and run iso’s I suppose. Out of the box a lot of my favorite psp games are not available on the vita via psn store; Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII not being available comes to mind.
...Though if we’re going to go the hacked console with emulator route, a hacked xbox, vita etc can run all the retro libraries, no?
Just to be clear here, I'm talking English console libraries.
That's still not quite clear... what do you mean by "English"? Released in the west? Released with the full or a partial support of english language? Do so called 'english friendly' games, like STGs, count? And what do you mean by "good games"? Something that was considered good on the time of their release? Games that stood the test of time, even today? Critics, personal choices or a consensus of both? It would be good to have some tighter coordinates.
Anyway, since you ruled out the Neo, the Mega Drive it is.
