Dreamcast because you could just burn a game to CD and run it on an unmodded console.

Original Xbox because you could slap on a no solder mod chip and boot from the hard drive. Suddenly you could switch up the loader, run modded games, run emulators... Truly ground breaking for the console scene.

Or SNES if you're the kind of weirdo who buys a console because they like games.

I will always die on the hill claiming Dreamcast as the best console. It was so far ahead of it's time and it had so many great games. I would kill for Sega to release a new console, but I imagine many of the people who helped create the Dreamcast went on to work for Nintendo. I've always considered the Wii and Wii U to be the true successors to the Dreamcast and I've wondered if they were created with the help of people who made the Dreamcast.
