Just for fun, I typed up some of the best games of the consoles, for me.

SNES: Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past
N64: Mario 64
PlayStation: Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
PlayStation2: Ratchet and Clank 2
XBox: Ninja Gaiden
Gameboy Advance: Advanced War (the first one)
DS: Castlevania: Down of Sorrow
PSP: still waiting

Feel free to disagree with me. :)

[edit]
GameCube: Super Smash Bros. Melee
Genesis: Shining Force 2

Some of the worst games worth mentioning:
SNES: Battletoads vs Double Dragon
N64: Superman
Playstation: Bubsy 3D
Gameboy Advance: Mortal Kombat
 
I bet there's a topic like this somewhere but oh well

SNES: Donkey Kong Country 3
N64: Mario Kart 64
PSX: Final Fantasy Tactics
PS2: San Andreas
Xbox: Fable
GBA: Tactics Advanced
Genisis: Shining Force 1

[edit] Dreamacast: Phantasy Star Online


Some of the worst games worth mentioning:
SNES: Battletoads vs Double Dragon
N64: Superman
Playstation: Bubsy 3D
Gameboy Advance: Mortal Kombat
Battle toads vs Double dragon was a pretty good game
 
Some of my favs:

DS: Meteos
Gamecube: Metroid Prime
Game Boy Advance: Metroid Zero Mission
N64: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
SNES: Super Metroid
Game Boy/Game Boy Colour: Metal Gear Solid
NES: Mega Man 3

Dreamcast: Shenmue 2
Saturn: Iron Storm
Sega CD: Snatcher
Game Gear: Streets of Rage 2
Genesis: Shadowrun

Playstation 2: Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
Playstation: Metal Gear Solid

XBox: Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic

PC: Doom

There's a lot of series in that list, mostly because those particular ones consistently fail to disappoint me.
 
Actually this is kind of interesting. It forces you to pick 1 game above every other good game released for a console. So the list I'll write down is pretty much made the first "best" game I thought of on each console.

PSX: Tekken 3
PS2: Guitar Hero
DC: Soul Calibur
SNES: Chrono Trigger
GBA: Advance Wars
Gameboy: Tetris :)
PCE: Aero Blasters

Funny thing...
I seem to have hardest time finding a "best" for Genesis and Xbox.
Genesis because I really enjoy far to many genesis-titles to instantly pick one. It's the most emulated console on my GP32.
X-box since the games for it (that I play) are multi-platform titles anyway... I do play it a lot.

... Thank god I don't have to pick for Amiga and C64 since they are not consoles :p
I most likely couldn't.

EDIT:
Ravnos just helped me with the Xbox game :)

X-box: Knights of the Old Republic

I completely forgot that was a X-box exclusive an that does stand above all other X-box games for me (multiplatform or not). Allthogh the mechanics were improved in KOTOR2, the story wasn't quite as interesting.... and the ending was messy.

Hooray for that man! The PC (while not a console) has the finest array of games.
However, I don't feel inclined to pick a single one right now (a little drunk).

From my recent gamings: Beyond Good and Evil, HL2, HL2:Ep1, HL2:Minerva, FEAR, Fahrenheit

If you like playing with bongo drum, DK Jungle Beat is an awesome game. Especially the boss battle that totally reminds of PunchOut was the best recreation of PunchOut since PunchOut and totally satisfying.
