When it comes to my earlier post. I was joking. It was hurtful to see N64 on this list. Overall it was a good console, but still had it's weaknesses. Some of those where the 3d stick, the parts would rub and the stick would become loose. Yuck loose parts. lol There was also the flopping of the N64dd and never made it out of Japan. They did not use the VRU and mic as much in NA than they did Japan. The box art was realistic here and creative and that is just my personal preference. They could of really made Hey You Pikachu a good game. Despite these flaws, the N64 still remains my favorite console of all time even though I jumped into it later than other people and of course my favorite game of all time is Ocarina of Time.
It's cool. Everyone has opinions on what they like & dislike. It also depends on how you are first exposed to and play a console and it's games. For me, I was coming from PlayStation. Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, Crash, Spyro, MediEvil, WipeOut, Rayman, Street Fighter Alpha, Final Fantasy VII, Castlevania Symphony of the Night, etc. Picked up the N64 in '08 for Ocarina, Mario 64, Banjo, GoldenEye, Shadows of the Empire and a few others.
It was like going retro. No voice-acting. No FMV (pretty cool at the time). Tedious, repetitive gameplay to make up for the cartridges lack of storage space. For me, every game on the N64 had something comparable and IMO,
better on the PlayStation. This isn't even counting mature games like Metal Gear Solid, Tomb Raider and Resident Evil that had no peer on the N64. And it's pretty much been that way ever since for me.
