im sure that a lot of the ps1 success was due to the price & CD format, but yea i think when you take off the nostalgia goggles, the n64 was probably nintendo's worst home console ever.


was gamecube really better? I got a lot more use out of my n64 but I feel I might have grown out of gaming or whatever around the same time

yea i think it was a lot better imo

you could probably count the real top games for the system on one hand (top of my head: two zeldas, mario 64, two banjos).

then you had some fun party games that were entertaining and were the kinds of games you didnt really see on ps1, but they weren't really classic games like OoT and would be outclassed with sequels (mario kart, smash bros, mario party, etc).

beyond that there isnt much and you're left with a console that was really expensive and had one of the worst controllers in gaming history.

gamecube was better, with a more traditional controller and disc format that helped a lot.

i think nintendo did a better job with their exclusives on gamecube (metroid games, zelda ww and tp, melee, mario sunshine, paper mario ttyd, animal crossing, pikmin, fire emblem, etc) and they even had a few decent third party games like resident evil 4 and mgs twin snakes.

obviously the gamecube started to tank pretty quickly and the third party support dried up, but i think in retrospect the gamecube has aged a lot better and there are more games that have a legacy than with the n64
