Console Reviews

Nintendo Switch Lite
The lower-cost Switch Lite is a great handheld game system, but it lacks some extras you may miss from the Switch.
Microsoft Xbox One X
Xbox One X lays a credible claim to the title of most powerful game console ever, but it has an uphill battle for your gaming dollar, especially if you already own an original Xbox One.
Nintendo Wii U
The Wii U is good for Nintendo lovers and great for families, but hold out for the Switch, the Wii U's imminent successor.
Nintendo NES Classic Edition
The NES Classic is a great self-contained mini console that plays 30 of the best NES games ever made -- but Switch owners will be able to play many of the same titles later this year.
Microsoft Xbox 360 S
Though the new Xbox 360 certainly addresses most of the concerns we've had with the versions before it, we don't think it warrants a purchase if you already own an Xbox 360 in working order with an HDMI-out port and a hard drive.
Nintendo Switch
The unique TV-or-mobile gaming proposition of the Nintendo Switch is now matched by a stellar library of games, including instant-classics like new Zelda and Mario titles.
Nintendo New 3DS XL
The 3DS XL's improved 3D head-tracking is a big step up and its performance boost more makes a noticeable difference. A few head-scratching design choices prevent us from falling for the New 3DS XL, but this is still the best Nintendo portable to get.
Microsoft Xbox 360 E
The Xbox 360 remains a great video and gaming console, but fans will be better served by older 360 bundles -- or waiting for the Xbox One.
Atari Flashback 8 Gold
The latest Atari 2600 retro console from AtGames offers dozens of Atari 2600 games in a box with HDMI output and wireless controllers.
Sony PlayStation Vita TV
Sony has unveiled the Vita TV, a micro console that can play Vita games and stream content and software from PlayStation 4.
Super Retro Boy
The Super Retro Boy is a portable game console that lets you play your favorite Game Boy cartridges.
Analogue Nt Mini
The Analogue Nt Mini sounds like a retro gamer's dream -- but this shrunk-down aluminum NES is still pretty pricey.
Microsoft Xbox
The Xbox is the most versatile console and perfectly complements a home-theater system.
Ouya Game Console
Despite its low price and free-to-try system, the Ouya fails to reach its potential as a disruptive alternative platform.
Analogue Super Nt
The Analogue Super Nt is the ideal console for retro gaming enthusiasts.
Microsoft Xbox 360 Elite 120GB
While it's neither a must-have upgrade for existing 360 owners nor as feature-packed as the PS3, the Xbox 360 Elite's combination of top-notch gaming and digital media features make it the current game console of choice.
OnLive
The OnLive service streams games to your computer, TV or tablet. It's a really cool concept that we'd recommend checking out, although the games selection isn't amazing, and occasional lag may spoil your fun.
Sony PlayStation 3
Even though PS2 backward compatibility has been dropped from this version, the 80GB PS3 is still a superb Blu-ray player and high-definition game console.
