>I prefer PS1 and Saturn over N64 but they are not more powerful when it comes to 3D graphics. Better at audio and FMV stuff yes, but the N64 was a powerhouse when it comes to 3D technology.

That's basically what I was saying. Also arguable that the PS1 was better at FMV tech-wise, it's more that there really wasn't space to put FMVs in the carts other than very special/specific circumstances.

Wasn't trying to get into a war, was just stating that the SNES had more powerful hardware, and that I felt counting addons (that did terribly) is stretching it, especially when you consider those would have been possible on a SNES as well and it starts to blur the lines on if the console is even doing much at all or if the game is just running on the add-on at that point. (Like that guy who "ported" Doom to the NES... he just put a Pi in a cart and made it output the video/audio through the NES and accept controller inputs, but the game was completely running on the Pi itself)

The three hands meme was clearly started by zoomies who never played an N64 back in the day. Neither the controller nor any of the games were designed for you to use all three parts of it at once. The whole point was that it had three possible ways to hold it depending on what the game used.

Left hand on d-pad and right hand on buttons, this made you use L and R as the shoulder buttons

Left hand on analog stick and right hand on buttons, this made you use Z in place of L

Left hand on d-pad and right hand on analog stick, very very few games had this as an option (mostly a few first person games and ones that really need two directional inputs by design), this made you use Z in place of R

You was NEVER supposed to use the d-pad, analog stick, and buttons all at the same time. This is why there are four directional c-buttons that act like a second d-pad on the right of the controller. Anyone going "LOL three hands" is too young to have ever played an N64 back then.

>playing FPS with only one analog stick is horrible
I can't believe there are still people who never played FPS or any games on N64 with the middle grip on pic related
you move and strafe with the DPAD and aim and shoot with the middle stick and Z
A and B are in reach for weapon switch and interact

needs to be posted in every 64 controller thread apparently as some people still don't get it
