Your least-played gaming system you own?

It should've be my PSP but I played some dungeon crawler a ton on vacations. God it was soooooooooooooo damn repetitive, almost broke my brain with that game. No idea why I kept playing it or what it was called. Although I did love the GTA games on it

Otherwise maybe the gamecube? I never did play it enough
 
I sell my systems if I don't play them. I can always rebuy them later if I want. I'm kind of a compulsive anti-hoarder.

Right now I own a PS4 and a GBA SP, and I play them both a lot. :-)
 
My Vita, haven't really played anything on it since I got it for xmas. That said, Hotline Miami is awesome on it and I will probably play lots of it.
 
There's nothing I currently own that I've played less than my PS4. Maybe you should exclude new purchases in the OP :p

Second up would probably be my original clear Game Boy Advance. Came out at a time when I was mostly playing PC games only, and I don't think I played more than two or three GBA game until after the DS came out.

I dont think I've touched my 3D0 since Gex.

Would be a good answer for me as well, except it had the best version of SSF2T and got some playtime, and I never played Gex ;p
 
360 got it for Halo/select multiplats, won't be doing so again with the One unless the series gets serious again.
 
My Wii. I've played on my PS4 for about 30 hours (28 for Fifa 14, 2 for AC IV) and even then my time played on the Wii doesn't even come close. It's the worst game related purchase I ever made. It's not even that the games are that bad, it's the system that doesn't do it for me. When I can play interesting games with good graphics, or interesting games that look like shit (or are 3D platformers, which I don't like) the choice is easy.
If I had more space to hook up all my consoles I might have played Xenoblade, but I don't, so it's not worth it.

Same for the 360, really, since most games are available on the PS3 with minimal differences. I just haven't got room to hook up an extra console. I played Mass Effect 1+2 and ToV, and that's it. It convinced me to just stick to one console this generation, and ignore the other consoles' exclusives. They may be great, but don't justify buying an entire console.
 
The Playstation, technically. I have it, but never did until after the PS2 and PS3 launched. I've always just used the backwards compatibility to play its games (mainly from the Triple).
 
My Vita; probably less than 24 hours on it and I've had it around a year or so.
It's going to pick up this year though.
 
Xbox 360. If I remember correctly the last game I played on it was either Perfect Dark XBLA or Banjo Tooie XBLA.
 
Outside of Fire Emblem and A Link Between Worlds I really haven't played my 3DS. I prefer to listen to music/podcasts when I'm in transit and when I'm at home I play home consoles so handhelds usually get left out.
 
Probably my Xbox 360.

Pretty much a Bioware machine. I mean, I got a lot of use out of it for that reason alone. But everything else I wanted to play was on PS3 or Wii last gen.

As far as handhelds go...PSP by a wide margin. Even beats out the 360 in terms of hours used.

I play PS4 and Wii U pretty frequently. And have an insane amount of time racked up on PS3 for certain.
 
Of current systems it is the Vita. Usually only play one game every few months. Love it when I do actually play a game, though. One of my favorite systems. 2000 version is definitely more fun to play so I've been logging much more time in the last month.
 
Probably my Game Gear. I played the Sonic games on it that tried to emulate the Genesis ones but other than that I didn't touch it. I don't even remember buying it or why I had it.
 
Previous gen my 360 got the least play of the three home consoles. Probably my all time least played as well.

This gen well... all of them are getting 'no play' to some degree at the moment.
 
Like a few others I'd say it's the PSP. I don't even know why - I was really excited to get it (I actually imported it via lik-sang) and bought Lumines and Riiiiiidge Racer at the same time. I really enjoyed both games, thought the PSP was a great handheld... and subsequently didn't buy any other games for it. Pretty odd now I think about it.

If we're getting technical however the most underplayed console I have is the original Xbox, because I bought it second-hand for £15 three years ago and, other than testing it once, have literally never used it.
 
Current-ish systems? PS3 by far. I was actually planning on ask for PS3 recommendations on a thread because it's hands down the most under-played system I've owned. I like it and it has games I love, but it was an insane downgrade from PS2 regarding the kind of games I like. Not Sony's fault, the market changed, but it truly felt like Sony's take on Xbox when I just bought it back in the day. Plus it's so big and slow and update-happy... definitely my least favorite PS system :( It got stomped big time by PC, DS and even Wii for me.
 
PS2, i got inbetween my Gamecube and Wii and didn't have many games for it. Then I got a PS3 which almost completely made it obsolete. I still played over 100 hours on it though. That and my Wii u but I've barely been home to play on it so I don't really count it yet
 
From least to less least:

-3DS, bought it when AC came out played it off and on & haven't played it since. I've had Mario 3d land and ocarina of time on my shelf for months but haven't felt like playing the 3DS.

-WiiU, got it for Christmas '12 played an nourish of nintendoland, a couple hours of NSMB, and almost all of Lego City and haven't played a single thing on it in a year I think.

-Vita, bought at launch and platinumed Uncharted, and have bought a ton of Games that I haven't bothered playing on it since. Although I have picked it up for a few minutes every so often

The 3DS & Vita are mainly because while I like the idea of mobile devices I always find that I hate playing games on them. The WiiU is because with exception of ZombiU (sitting in my backlog) I've yet to see a single game that interests me on the system, nothing in the horizon that I can see either. Lego City was awesome though.
 
Not counting previous generation systems I still have lying around, my 3DS by far. Haven't touched it since I downloaded Pokemon Bank at the start of the year.
 
Not counting my huge collection of older systems (NES, SNES, Genesis, etc.) it would definitely be the Xbox One. Outside of Titanfall there is simply nothing to play on it...

Even my Vita and WiiU see the light of day more. Makes me feel just the slightest tinge of buyer's remorse.
 
3ds. No matter how good some of the titles may be, I can no longer force myself to play games at its retina-burning resolution.
