>>Nintendo will never make a 64 classic
There's where you are wrong kiddo.

Xbone has rare replay, only game you'll miss out on is 007.

>>5502152
Just buy an untouched controller from a shelf collector who doesn't play games, also a lot of the good games are like $10, even at overpriced retro store

>>5502163
>Conker's Bad Fur Day
>100+

>>5502152
Yes, fifth gen is pretty shit, but was enjoyable at the time. Human perception is relative. Many of today's games will be viewed similarly. The medium will eventually mature enough to be enjoyed primarily by people instead of gamers.

Emulation is good enough where you can play most games minus 007, Tooie, and a few others well. A 64 is a good solution then.

>>5502152
Only one of your points even relates to your question. Get a fucking clue, faggot.

>N64 is the worst console because I don't own one and the games I want
huh

>>5502301
>Expensive controllers
>Expensive games
>Such a fucking mess codewise Nintendo won't even touch it
>Patent makes proper consoles and proper emulation impossible

>>5502152
>Is the Nintendo 64 the worst best console ever made?
No. That right is reserved for the Dreamcast. Dreamcast was ahead of its time, but due to a number of PR issues was pretty much ignored by its fan base. The N64 was a typical Nintendo product, and did as well as I would expect.

>>5502306
You just missed the time window to get games for cheap in the early 00s. Not just N64 but in general.
That doesn't make the console bad lol.

>>5502152
Whew lad, so much wrong with your post that I don't know where to start.

If you don't have your well taken care of childhood controllers, you might be too young for this board.

If you collect carts, you're an idiot, if you can't afford a flashcart maybe you need a job. Seriously you could start from scratch and have an "ultimate n64" setup for less than $200. Who can't save $200? If you can't anon, maybe you should be doing something productive instead of posting on a Nigerian basket weaving board.

>>5502165
He said good games, not over rated garbage.

>>5502173

Tooie runs like shit even on real hardware.

>>5502165
Yes, and? Just because you named one example that's more expanse and has a supposedly lower supply and higher demand doesn't discredit anything about the fact N64 games in general are still cheap. That's like expecting every NES game to have a value of over 300 USD because Stadium Events exists or calling every Megadrive game expensive because games like Musyaa is an expensive game from that category.
Do you know what 'exception' means anon? Are you even old/smart enough to post here?

>>5502341
XBLA version is the best then.

>>5502152
>AKI wrestling games
>Perfect Dark
>Super Smash Bros.
>OOT/MM

Horrible trash.

>>5502325
I'm handicapped and can't work anon, I wish I could.

It's a trade-off. Xbox version has better framerate, but doesn't support 240p, and the controls are less precise.

>there's been a commercially released hd version of banjo kazooie and banjo tooie for a decade
>still no decent hd mario 64 port
disgusting

>>5502445
>Getting a failed console to play the HD version

>>5502445
HD is a meme when it comes to games that are originally SD.

>>5502452
It is for 2d but for 3d games widescreen is pretty nice.

>>5502473
Makes less sense, in 2D games, wide screen can be convenient because you can see more ahead, but in 3D games you're looking forward, it doesn't make much of a difference. Anyway, these games were made with 4:3 in mind.

>>5502448
>Xbox 360
>failed console
The HD Banjo port is on the 360, not exactly a failure considering it's the 7th most successful console of all time. It's just backwards compatible on the X1, which has sold at least 40 million units in its own right, more than the N64 in its lifetime.

>>5502493
Oh I thought you meant the Xbone Rare re-release, the Xbone is a failure though compared to the PS4 and Switch. What exclusives does it even have?

>>5502521
It's a cheap 4k BD player/media box that also plays Banjo. Why do you need any other reason to get it?

>>5502615
It's a half assed 4k player at best. I would know and no one with a real 4k collection should be using it as a main player.

>>5502623
What do you not understand about cheap?

>>5502623
>It's a half assed 4k player at best.
It is a 4k upscaler. No different than using a retrotink on your Playstation and calling it a 480p cd player.

>>5502165
Conker's only $100 something if you're going for CiB. If you want just the cart it's more like $35-50

>>5502653
In America maybe, here it's a 110 euros minimum.

>>5502173
The fuck is wrong with the ones you mentioned? I'm doing a 100% of tooie right now and can't think of any major or minor bugs I've run into after completing around 80%. I did a 100% of GE and again I can't think of a major bug, I think the only thing I remember is some sky pallets are a big borked but that's it.

N64 is still coming along nicely even to this day in terms of emulation, far better than a few years ago.

>>5502653
>shitty 90s game
>only 100 something
damn son

>>5502709
Read the entire sentence.

>>5502714
too busy sucking you mom's dick haha

>>5502696
Poor FPS, stutter

>>5502152
>Controllers are so bad and broken you need expensive third-party crap
You can replace the stick in your 1st party N64 controller in 5 minutes with a 3 dollar replacement stick from eBay and it works 99 percent as well as an unused stock N64 controller there is a slight difference but you get used to it quickly.
>Nintendo will never make a 64 classic
I highly doubt it. The NES and SNES classic were not planned far in advance, Nintendo needed some quick cash. The same will happen with the 64 classic.
>Emulators run like shit
The emulators you use run like shit.
>Some games are so expensive on it you need to buy a flashcart to save money
A flash cart is 100 dollars and you get every game, how destitute are you?

>>5502750
Emulators can't run all games perfectly without stuttering

>>5502781
Neither can the N64

>>5502783
What about Tooie? Runs like ass everywhere minus the 64. The 64 is the only retro console that is a justified purchase due to shit emulation. And I'm a massive emulatorfag.

>>5502681
Why are you buying the european version? Do you like shittier versions of games?

>>5502786
It runs at single digit framerates on the N64 too.

>>5502787
Because I live on the north pole, why would I import the US version?

>>5502793
Santa's house and the north pole are US colonies.

>>5502798
I'm from a country 1/10th the size of my neighbours and physical releases are insanely expensive everywhere I look, boxed Conker's would probably run me back hundreds of euros.

>>5502165
>>5502653
50-70 is more accurate for a loose cart, assuming you want to get it asap.

If you're patient it does go lower online, especially in poorly timed auctions.

>>5502727
Fps in GE is fine, Fps in tooie is bad because the actual game is bad

>>5502786
I own an N64 and Everdrive because I prefer it to N64 emulation, but I'll never pretend like games all run flawlessly on the N64.

>>5502408
Save your government checks. If you can't then forget n64 and emulate snes. Seriously, you can bake cookies and sell them on Facebook. Not easy, but nothing worth doing is. I don't feel sorry for you, just up your hustle game. If you're too disabled make a go fund me or get ahold of extra life charity. You know how it is man, own the hand of cards you were dealt and do what you can with them.

I know this is gonna make me sound like a graphics whore and maybe I am but everything on the 64 is just so goddamn ugly.

>>5502781
If you're running your emulators at normal speed, a lot of games will lag including Majora's Mask and Tony Hawk 3.

>>5502325
>Defending a controller designed to break
Yeah, the N64 controller's notoriety for having the worst analogue is a lie, which means that you should be able to find reports of other controllers of the same generation not people able to function in this current age.

How do I make my N64 not sound like butt on my Retrotink?

PS1/PS2/Dreamcast/3DO/Saturn all that sounds great but N64 sounds like somebody farting in a tin can.

>>5502448
>>5502521
Really, the only modern 'console' I have is a PC to play CRPGs and RTS games with, but antiXbox autism is always so dogmatic and pathetic. 95% of modern games are released across all systems (unless you're a manchild who wants to play mediocre nintedo rehashes) so I don't get why people even console war in theis day and age when the difference is a handful of games.

Take this fucking attitude back to /v/ you petulant manchild along with your cancerous anime pics.

>>5504047
build a volume knob or voltage divider
there's probably also a way to buy such a thing from china

>>5504050
The biggest thing xbox had going for it was live since PSN is cancer and Nintendo only begrudgingly acknowledges the internet exists. But they've even fucked that up now (live on xbone is a constant hassle of fucking with settings/resetting connections just to join a party). Been an idort since mid 90s and xbone is legitimately the only console I've ever regretted buying.

>>5504080

Xbox One also has zero exclusives, and to keep it retro, the only game worth playing on it is Rare Replay.

>>5504084
It’s an extremely nice console to pair with a PC though. Especially with low latency wireless streaming from your PC through WiFi direct.. it may not have all the exclusives but I love being able to keep my PC in my bedroom and the xbone downstairs then a second xbone in the media room to gameshare with. There’s a lot of nice QOL stuff in it

>>5502787
How EU's version of Conker is shittier than Amerifat's?

>>5504084
Which is a shame, because after the original Xbox had a number of quirky IP's that died out.

>>5502152
>Third party 64 consoles
no one has ever made a third party anything console

>>5504484
>>third party 64 consoles are only allowed to be made in 2021 when the patent stops
OP never said anything about 3rd party N64s being made, only that he believes that they won't be produced on a bigger scale before 2021. Work on your reading comprehension, anon.

>>5504515
you didn't read my sentence properly

>>5502158
>"N64 classic" teased by Nintendo
>budget-priced ports for Switch of games previously released on Virtual Console

>>5504592
You are out of your mind if you think Nintendo is going to fairly price anything that isn't 5+ year old indie games anon.

>>5502313
I'm glad even as a youngfag a year or two before the gamecube came out I knew to take advantage of I think eb games having a promotion where even ocarina of time was like 15 US bucks, and they were doing a buy 2 get one free deal on n64 games. It was the most specific Christmas list I made.

>>5504047
why not just send the audio right to an exterior amp? if youre using tv speakers then the shitty audio shouldnt be an issue anyways

>>5502152
>At least half the games are original
>Everdrive 64 and a single SD card is all you need
>Controllers are the best at the time they were released and no 3rd party has ever come close to matching them
>Collection is small enough that you can make a nice library with one or two expensive games just to show how much some people want them.
>Nintendo couldn't even try to make a 64 classic as it wouldn't be close to the original in any cost effective production
>N64 doesn't need a patent as it will never be properly cloned.

>>5502406
Epic.

>>5502406
Horrible bait.

>>5502615
It's also an extremely cheap multiplat box, as it suffers from the "loser console" tax rebate and makes it sigificantly cheaper than a PC or the PS4, which is heavily "sony taxed".
