Top 25 Video Game Consoles of All Time

9. PlayStation (1995)

Sonys’ first video game baby, the PlayStation, was a complete success. Sony entered a dog fight with the powerhouse manufactures Nintendo and Sega, and then came out on top. This marked the beginning of Segas’ demise and was the first time Nintendo was truly put on their heels. The PlayStation gave us the Dual Shock controller which we have expanded on and still use today. In addition, the PlayStation made a big shift to 3D gaming and disc-based formatting, improving the landscaping of the industry. Many of the PlayStation exclusive games released such as Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil have gone on to be efficacious video game series.
