Mega Drive holds a lot of strong memories for me.

N64 possibly has the strongest quality:quantity ratio of any console, because what it did have includes all time greats.

But the answer is PS1 every time. The explosion of new franchises and ones that got new life in a transition to 3D is still being felt today.
 
PlayStation

Each one of them for me were top tier on the context they were relased, but regarind how much I enjoyed them I'd say:
  1. PS1
  2. SNES
  3. Dreamcast
  4. Neo Geo (I played the arcade version, didn't play the console version until decades later)
  5. Mega Drive
 
I picked PS1, but we seem to be missing Sega Mega CD (Sega CD) & Amiga CD32

Anyway, in the 90s I had...

1) Mega Drive & Mega CD
2) SNES
3) GameBoy
4) Game Gear
5) Atari Lynx
6) Commodore Amiga A500
7) Commodore Amiga CD 32
8) PC (with CD Rom)
9) PS1
10) N64

Think that's the lot :)

N64 for me. I was a poor teenager then so I probably only ever played about 10 games on it, but what games they were! Mario 64, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Goldeneye, Banjo-Kazooie...

I'd had a PlayStation first - I saved up my paper round money for about 6 months lol to pay for it - but I was never that taken with it really. I ended up selling it before all the real classics released.

The 00s was really when I was able to start enjoy gaming more tbh. Plenty of money and plenty of time.
 
SNES by a country mile. My old ass still has it hooked up to this day. I've owned just about every console dating back to the 80s and the SNES has a special place in my heart.
