Hate to break it, but http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/Snoopychan/Old-macro.jpg

Its been around for a bit, and yeah; that kid is defenitily excited for the N64.

[trypticon]

The games on that system for the most part sucked. No kid should be that excited over a Nintendo 64.

[DavidNel]

I am prepared to defend the N64 to the death O_o

It really is fun though. I just rebought Banjo-Kazooie, and am adictided to it. Actually.... I'm gonna play it now!

I lost my cart of BK. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

Oh wells. I'll fill the void (eventually) with Mischief Makers and Bomberman 64.

[Wyndham]

Bomberman 64 is my favourite N64 game, actually.

Adam, it's you and me against the world.

I thought I was the only one who thought the N64 generation was terrible http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif Probably only because my family had opted for the Dreamcast instead, but N64 had... 2 Zelda games, and the Pokemon Stadium games (And most people would argue about the goodness of those). That's about it

[Solstis]

Er, and Mario 64. Revolutionary, but... uh... boring.

[Polly]

Video's old, but still pretty funny. I loved the NOW WE CAN RENT GAMES FROM BLOCKBUSTER! part.

StarFox 64, Mischief Makers, Doom64, and Blast Corps (MAYBE Perfect Dark and Conker's Bad Fur Day on the right day) were about the only games I really enjoyed for the ol N64. I bought mine the day StarFox came out and it didn't get a whole lot of use after that. I have a lot of games, but really don't care much for most of them.

Super Mario 64 just never clicked with me at all. I came to appreciate it a bit more years later, but never fully enjoyed it like most do. As for GoldenEye, I was already spoiled by FPSs that looked and played much better at the time. Haven't cared much for any of the 3D Zeldas either.

Ah well

[Rei-San]

To me, the N64 pwned. It's my favorite console. well, at least until th Wii comes out. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif

[Outrider]

I mean, barring the fact that any console is worth it solely for Ocarina of Time... what N64 were you naysayers playing?

Star Fox, Mario 64, Goldeneye, Banjo-Kazooie, Jet Force Gemini, Super Smash Bros...

I just started playing some N64 games again recently, and I'm blown away by how many good games there were.

I'm really shocked at the dismissal of some of these games.

Yet, on topic, I should mention that the kid in that video is actually one of the writers for 4ColorRebellion, I believe.

[GrumblyStuff]

Jet Force Gemini wasn't that good. The controls are in definite need of Wii'ing.

I cant believe you would say that. Not only is Jet Force: Gemini (NOTE THE COLIN) my favorite game (and gets my vote for best game ever,) it also has flawless controls that could not be rightly duplicated with the Wii remote.

[Polly]

Jet Force: Gemini's problem wasn't the controls, it was all the damn COLLECTING you had to do.

Well, yes. But the collecting didn't really interfere with the game until the last chapter.

And, uh, guys... the official title listed on every site I'm going to is Jet Force Gemini, without the colon. I mean, technically they are the Gemini chapter of the Jet Force, but regardless, the title is without the separation.

Of course, JFG had some limitations when it came to the controls. Obviously they would have loved to have a dual-analog setup, but the controls definitely worked out excellently with the setup they used. Inginuity won out against limiations.

[Polly]

Well, yes. But the collecting didn't really interfere with the game until the last chapter.

That's the problem. It didn't HAVE to interfere with the game, but it did. It's the cheapest way to extend playtime, and was like hitting a brick wall for me.

The controls were the best that could be done on a N64 controller. This game SCREAMS for the Wiimote. They're absolutely perfect for each other.

Aim with Wiimote, move with the Nunchaku attachment.

[trypticon]

Right, the point with my original statement that the games for the N64 sucked ass still stays. There were a few good games, but when it really seemed the only thing being released for the system was racing game after racing game after racing game, it only helped to lose its appeal.

Great games for that system were very few. Mario 64 was great, changed gaming as we know it. The Zelda games for it were great. Starfox 64 is still probably the best Starfox game. Besides that, I couldn't find any games I liked for it. So few interesting games over so many years of being marketed makes for a crappy system. It killed my love of gaming for years.

Um, actually, I'd have to say that the majority of N64 games were NOT racing. If anything, the relevant argument would be for adventure platforming games. (Actually, according to IGN, it looks like there were more action games than anything, but I'm a little cautious of some of those genre definitions.)

There seemed to be a lot of racers early on in the console's lifespan (Cruisin' series, Lambourghini, Top Gear), but certainly not towards the end. If anything, more people were playing the Playstation for its racers, what with Ridge Racer, Gran Turismo, Destruction Derby, Driver, etc.

I mean, jeez... have you ever even sat down and played through Banjo-Kazooie? Or Paper Mario? What about (and I know these are racers, but still) 1080 Snowboarding or F-Zero X? Star Wars Rogue Squadron? Frame-rates aside, Perfect Dark had so much content packed into it, one couldn't help but find something enjoyable in it.

Again, I'm surprised at the disregard for some of the best games of the generation.

[Balthor]

Surprise, some people actully don't like the same games as others. Heaven forbid.

Indeed.

I'd bring up that project EGM did to show classic games to some young kids and how they reacted to them being "boring and old", but that would get people really upset!

I don't understand the mentality of butting in to say something sucks however, just to voice an opinion.

Are they trying to convince you to change your opinion? Just put you down for what you like?

Do these people care soo much about what other people buy and play?

What's the motivation for all this?
Justifying how their games are better?

People have differences of opinion and preferences, nothing new.

And the hype machine makes more money for the industry?

Oh yeah, funny kid there. He probably had the time of his life with his N64, a hell of a lot more fun than posting what he thinks on the internet where there's a 100% chance someone will disagree.

If only the rest of us were that freaking happy about an N64.

odd coincidence. I had a hankering to dust off my 64 today, and now I see this?

Video: old and overused (especially at ytmnd.com).

N64 Statement: It wasn't the best console ever by any means, but it had a good deal of great games. If you really want to say who failed during the 32/64-bit era, say Sega Saturn.

[Maridia]

Mmm. N64. So many good games. But just as many crappy ones. *cough*Quest64*cough*

Y'know what I loved about Blast Corps? That the game never seemed to end. Every time you thought you had beaten it, something else would be unlocked.

And then there were those evil Platinum medals.

Jeez, I really hope Rare makes a sequel to that on the 360.

[GrumblyStuff]

I dunno. With how hot Rare is doing now, I wouldn't want them to screw it up like they did with Perfect Dark.

i love the 64, so many memories of playing till 4 in the morning, me and my friends occasionally reminense on the joys of it at school, talking about some of the best games, like the DK 64, that was so cool, Mario 64, Excitbeike 64, StarFox 64, Bomberman 64, Goldeneye, Wave Runner or whatever, it was just a great system

And you hide under your little umbrella of fanboy (http://www.pointlesswasteoftime.com/games/fanboy.jpg) blindness. Don't try to say that's not what it is, because it's blatantly obvious with how you've handled this thread and anyone with a differing opinion. Oh deary me, there's that word again. I wonder why it keeps coming up? BECAUSE IT'S RELEVANT TO THE TOPIC! Don't like that people have opinions that just may differ from your own? Your modem has a cord in the back you can pull out and make all the wrong in the world go away.

I really wanna know how any game can be "good regardless." How the hell did this come about? Seems most gamers I know play games based on their own personal tastes and not based on some group of peoples' idea of "good." Where's the committee that sits around all day determining what games are "good regardless?" Can I write to them? Cause I think we need to have a little chat about Half-Life 2 :

Bottom line: drop the fanboy shit.


Needs more Blast Corps

Quoted for complete truth. But since game companies have this weird tendency to rarely do anything that makes sense, I wouldn't hold my breath. Plus I don't think it sold that well :/

I thought that was the Jaguar? What with no textures and pseudo-64-bit graphics and all of, what, two sales?

The Nintendo 64 was my introduction into console gaming. If it had been as bad as many claim it to be I would likely not be talking here now. Instead probably some computergame message board.

Also, Hydro Thunder for the Nintendo 64 was, based from my experiences, the best version of the game. Eh, so it's a racing game so was Mario Kart 64 and they were both awesome games.

Ha ha! That's classic. I'll just state that quality doesn't relate to how much one enjoys something all of the time. I hate Moby Dick, but that doesn't mean it's a bad book. People try to shoehorn opinion into such arguments, but I don't think any of us have to be so PC.

I won't argue about fanboyism, but you're certainly overstepping your boundaries with some wonderful assumptions on your part. Go take a seat, calm down, and then maybe we can have a nice conversation. I guarantee you'll enjoy yourself here much more after that.

Anywho:

I guess you could refer to the Jaguar as the failure of the 32-bit era, but I mean... most people don't even think of it as being in the same realm as the other systems.

For most people it would be the Saturn, y'know?

I dunno.

Also, to jump back a bit, I actually couldn't stand Donkey Kong 64. The Donkey Kong Country games were so great, and then DK64 just didn't do it for me. I think it was probably the fact that you had to go through each level with five different characters to collect 100+ different objects with each of them. Rare can be a little collecting crazy, but that was probably the all-time low for them. Even Star Fox Adventures had less to collect, and that's the game that's known for the ridiculous number of things he can pick up.

You're certainly right about the repetiveness Outrider. Yet I happen to have thoroughly enjoyed that game.

Doesn't make any sense now that I think about it; the game had more cons than pros. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

Also, not to harp on that one specific game so much, but it felt way too similar to Banjo-Kazooie for me. I'm pretty sure they ran on the same engine anyway. I just really wish the game had been more streamlined and a bit more linear so that it could be similar to DKC in some ways.

Man, I just really loved DKC.

Funny how those who jump in here, defending a negative comment by claiming it's perfectly okay because it's an opinion, are also forgetting that the opposing arguments of the dicussion are also opinions.

NINTENDO SIXTY FOOOOOOUUUR!!!

[HAYABUSA-FMW-]

Nintendo 64 games were a precursor of games costing $60 now. Games with sometimes one texture per flat polygon wall.

No wonder there's soo many hard or strong feelings either way.

Hell, I paid $60 for shovelware crap like Quake 2.

It seemed for the N64, all of rares adventure games were like this, and that brought a real negativity towards Rare for me.

A game I keep forgetting to mention about the N64, because it's so awesome and keep wishing for a bonus disc or something with this game... Kirby 64!

Heh. I think my brothers and I got Killer Instinct Gold for a whopping $80. The early N64 cartridge prices are something I definitely do not miss.

$80 is a huge chunk of change to be hearing CCCCCCOOMBO BREAKKKER NONSTOP. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

And yet they're back, in next gen form.

The justification for it in one EGM article of "consumers were willing to buy limited editions of Madden/Mortal Kombat/Halo 2/etc. and pay such a price"

is bullcrap.

I didn't buy any of those games, and those that did just got some tack on special features as in those contained in movie DVD releases.

And the X360 DVD game discs are not double the cerrent media capacity or anything, right?

But I guess its been a while since games were $60 so it might be overdue, and it probably does cost more to produce games, even though its noted devlopers don't take much loss per disc even at Greatest Hits prices.

Now that SSBB is gonna come out on wii, I'm playing on SSB on 64. I love that gamne, reminds me of the start of secondary school seven years ago, just finished exams... I feel young again!
