unless you're going to make console games for commercial, you'd better develop PC games...

If you really want to develop for a console, the dreamcast is a good choice. It is easy to program for and there is a good community. Go to DCEmulation .

If you're serious about developing for a console, find a publisher who will buy you the developer kit (which costs in the vacinity of tens of thousands of dollars).

Seconding the dreamcast. If you are familiar with DOS, this won't be much far off.
