I would say X Box 360
either xbox 360 or the ps3
Yes it is the most popular games console available.
Cricket is one example
there wasn't any games consoles made in 1948 or before that.
The most popular invention of 1994 was the PlayStation PSX. It played CD-ROM based games and became the best selling game console.
The 3DS, with all its 3d picture-taking abilities, and games that come with just the console, is most definitely the most popular electronic toy for 2010.
Yes Australia is the most popular country
If they were popular Xbox Orignal games then most likely you can play them on your xbox 360.
The Wii
The most popular Nintendo console would be either the Wii or the Wii U. The Wii is currently the most successful console that Nintendo has released up to this point.
The most popular Nintendo DS video game was the Pokemon series, particularly Pokemon SoulSilver. This was on of the highest selling games all year on any console.
I would suggest a Nintendo DS with a game such as Brain Training. The console is around 100 pounds and the game around 30. Other games can be played on the console that are not puzzle games. Other puzzle games are available for the console.
