I've had fun with all three decades, can't choose a favourite one though.
Decade 1 is almost pure nostalgia, my experiences consisting pretty much solely of Metroid II, Tetris and Link's Awakening. Whether they're nostalgic or not though, they are all really good games.
Decade 2 was pretty revolutionary. A bunch of new consoles, not to mention the flood of memorable games. Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, the Oracles, Super Mario 64, Banjo-Tooie, Super Smash Bros, and heaps of Pokemon games, including the unforgettable Yellow version. It was also the start of Paper Mario, WarioWare, Advance Wars and the infinitely good Mario & Luigi RPGs.
Decade 3 continued with these games I just mentioned. PiT and BiS, Super Paper Mario, the DS Advance War games, WarioWare Smooth Moves. And even with the Wii, 3DS, and the Wii U now coming along, the DS is still strong. Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks, Super Princess Peach, New Super Mario Bros, and the new Pokemon games. Even Pokemon Black and White 2, the latest ones, are still compatible with regular DS consoles unless I'm much mistaken.
So yeah, I can't really choose, each decade has its highlights. If I had to choose, it would probably be 2 due to its significance. But hey, decade 3 isn't even over yet, and who knows, it might blow the other two right off of their feet.
EDIT: Yawackhary just reminded me of Professor Layton. Which pretty much puts decade 3 on-par with 2 now, making me not being able to choose at all.
