Got to be a toss up between the OG GBA, which could play original GameBoy games as well as GBA games, or perhaps the OG DS which could play 2DS and GBA games (although I don't think original GameBoy worked).
Or the Switch, which lets you play a full sized console Zelda game on the toilet.
2DS games are 3DS games
Same for me. If we're counting in backwards compatibility, I was always a GBA guy for the fact it could play the entire Game Boy library.
As I've gotten older though, I've been gravitating more to the DS for the combination of DS and GBA.
I am fixing up a pile of dead DSi XL’s and let me tell you, those things are a joy to play on for my aging eyes and massive hands. They’re hell to get parts for (the battery cover, and the OEM type stylus with a softer nib rather than the cheap solid one piece plastic replacements, are basically unobtainium). But my preferred format for anything NDS/DSiware.
