Complaining about Wii's graphics is like complaining a Honda Civic doesn't drive like a Porsche. Wii was never about performance; it does what it was built for and it does it fantastically.

But it still looks bad on large TVs. 50" TVs beg for more than 720x480 resolution.

This was the first thing I thought of upon seeing this thread.

I wasn't too fond of the Sega Dreamcast, either, but that was mostly because of its game library.

EDIT: I'd like to change my answer to GameCube. It was so horrible that I forgot about it completely!

I loved the Game Cube Those were the days...

GAME CUBE ROCKS. THAT IS ALL.

The demise of games consoles is pretty interesting. The Atari Lynx did extremely poorly, because of lack of games and because it was a poor design, so Atari abandonded it and started focusing on the Jaguar. Then the Jaguar did extremely poorly, because of lack of games and because the controller was an abomination, so it abandoned the console market altogether. The Sega consoles were always a long way behind the equivalent Nintendos in terms of sales, and therefore in terms of games as well; a similar pattern to Jaguar's demise was followed by Sega. The Saturn did poorly, so they focused on the Dreamcast. Both failed because of lack of games. I'd argue that the Dreampants also failed because the controller was too big and ugly.

THAT IS ALL.

The PS3 is a massive waste of money.

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

Dreampants?

 

[Nylan]

So that's what was stoled...

 

[Leonel]

The NES.

Some might disagree with me, but try being the only kid with an 8 bit system while everyone else in class had the newer 16 bit Sega Genesis and then upgraded to N64's and Playstation's! AND I UPGRADED MY NES WITH A GAMECUBE!

 

[Masquerouge]

I don't think I've played a console that I didn't like.

I know some are supposed to be bad like the Virtual Boy but I never played it.

Everyone hated the Saturn except for Sega of Japan. Even Sega of America hated it, and they demanded a new console to replace it. Before the Saturn came out, Sony offered Sega their console to sell as the next Sega console, but Sega of Japan refused. The Saturn along with the odd Mega Drive add ons helped alienate Sega from the American market, and many distributors refused to sell the Saturn (and the Dreamcast), and after the Saturn failed, Electronic Arts refused to develop games for the Dreamcast.

Coleco-vision maybe?

The worst is going to have to be one of the early gaming platforms from the early 80s that was obscenely expensive for what it did.

Nothing in the last decade could/should come close to being the 'worst ever'.
