Another important post here...What is the best power button availiable on consoles of today.There are many systems out but what button do you push the most.This may seeema bit on the weird side but it is true.Power buttons are an important aspect of console gamin(LOL).
Consoles such as the N64 have big bulky power buttons which seem to hurt my fingers when I turn,it also seems a bit of a struggle to get the thing on.This case was the same for the other Nintendo console,Super Nintendo which again was stiff on the hands.One of my favourites is the ps2 one,you press it and a cool green light blazes out,that is so cool.But there is a probblem,it is just a little button and hasnt got any force behind it,so there you are lacking.
The original playtation has a massive button which seems to grind the side which isnt pleasant but like the new system has a cool light underneth.
Sorry but the prize for best console button (drum roll please) yes it is the Sega Dreamcast.Though it is just a circle,it is a finely rounded shape that is smooth yet feels very strong.And that HUGE orange light in the middle which you need glasses to see,just adds to the fun......well done sega...
Mind you I dont think you will hold that crown for llong,The X Box is on its way.Another major topic brought to you by Wilmaaaa,thanks for reading

the PSone has the best power button. in goes down and is on top of the console so you'll never acidently press it.
No actually the PS2 has the best power switch, Red at the top is standby,press it and the led goes green when your console starts up and press it quickly to reset or press and hold to turn off.Best Ever!!

I can't even remember the NES power button but the way of loading up a cartridge was fantastic. BRING IT BACK! BRING IT BACK! Oh no. Nobody uses cartridges anymore do they. Oh well! It was great anyway.
Galaxy 5000 was the coolest game by the way. Nothing much has beaten the quality of that game.

Yes, it's definitely between the N64 and Dreamcast but i'd have to say it's probably.............who cares?
(Dreamcast for those who do, because when you accidently press the power button without saving a game, if you're holding it down then you can very quickly let it go and press it again and the DC will stay on. Great! A bit difficult to do with the N64.)

I feel the simple NES power button was the greatest, it was just the simplicity and bad design that made it easy to use, great to press and annoying to look at.
This power button was class because after some time you got used to it being there, it would become so normal that you could turn the console on in the middle of the night, it stuck out and was the button from the two that made a crushing like noise when you pushed it in....
...um. Have I really just written that much about a power button...
Maybe Pink Floyd are finally getting to me...

Yeah, I like the Dreamcast one too. The N64 is a slider, the Playstation one is too big... and I don't even know what the PS2 one is, so it can't be that good. :0)
hhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmm............
