of the next gen consoles, i have only the gc (unless you count the dc), and im actually quite pleased with my purchase so far, given some of the stuff thats out now, and what will be coming out. gauntlet dark legacy, super monkey ball, ssbm, pikmin, ssx tricky, lost kingdoms, eternal darkness, spider-man, mario sunshine, zelda, metroid prime, resident evil. my faith in nintendo is restored. i know some of those are cross-platform, but like i said, i only have a gc currently. im gonna pick up a ps2 one of these days, and i might get an xbox mostly because i want to play jetset radio future and world series baseball 2k3.
I count the DC. Hell, it's STILL the only console with a reasonable online presence, though the PS2's network adapter isn't too far off now.

The facts that it's very easy to bypass country-code verification (hello Fire Pro), that European versions tend to support 50hz AND 60hz displays (making them US-friendly), and that its games are, er, easily distributable (arrr! arrr! me hearties!) don't hurt, either.
