Just the systems I personally owned, in rough chronological order:

Atari 2600 - Montezuma’s Revenge
NES - Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out & Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Arcade Game
Game Boy - Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins
PC - Wolfenstein 3D & SimCity (original)
Sega Saturn - Thunderstrike 2
DS - Civilization: Revolution
Wii - Super Mario Galaxy & Guitar Hero III
3DS - Fire Emblem: Awakening
Wii U - Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Those are not necessarily the best games on each platform. In fact, most objectively aren’t. Probably only Breath of the Wild on that list can claim to be the best title on its platform.

These are just personal favorites that, for whatever reason, I poured tons of hours into and have the most fond memories of playing.

I’m leaving out Skyrim and GTA 5 despite them being in my top 5 all time, because I’ve owned them on multiple consoles, and can’t decide whether to put them on the original console I played them on, or the console that was the better version.

NES - Adventures of Bayou Billy
Game Boy - Pokémon Red
N64 - Perfect Dark
PS2 - Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas/Gran Turismo 4
PS3 - COD 4/South Park: Stick of Truth
Xbox 360 - Forza 2
PC - Town of Salem
PS4 - Fallout 4
Xbox One - FIFA 17 (it basically just collects dust, so I don’t have many choices)

I'm not sure if I'm missing any.

Almost forgot about Earthworm Jim. Not my favorite but certainly different for its time
