Maybe I'm just a 5th gen baby or something, but the N64 is probably my favorite console. I can respect that other ones like the snes might have had more good games, but the n64 has my favorite ones.
A lot of the SNES games were only a cut easier than NES titles, and frankly I can't be assed to play something that difficult too often. I love Mega Man but I rarely play it because it's so demanding. Especially if the game has no saves or passwords.
I also hear a lot about how the N64 has 'awkward 3d graphics' and I can totally see where that's coming from, but I think that adds to the charm of it. Hard to describe.

It's both overrated and underrated at the same time.

Overrated by people who grew up playing games like Super Mario 64, OOT, Goldeneye, Mario Kart 64, Banjo-Kazooie and, while great games, hold it into a pedestal too much. Especially games like Banjo, I see a lot of people discussing it as of late, and I genuinely could never get into it, neither as a kid or as an adult.

Then, it's also underrated by a lot of people, probably as a contrarian reaction to those who love the N64 for popular games like the aforementioned, while completely ignoring the amount of not-so-popular games the N64 got in its lifetime, like Mystical Ninja, Mischief Makers, and personally one of my favorite games, at least form the whole 5th generation, Sin and Punishment.

So, you decide, are you a Nintendo fanboy who blindly loves the N64 for Mario and Banjo, or are you a stupid whinny kid who can't stand other people enjoying things?

I'm neither, idort has always been the way.

That said, the anti-N64 meme actually causes more N64 discussion, so if your intention is for people to stop liking the N64, you should avoid N64 discussion at all, either positive or negative. That's how consoles that aren't liked fade into obscurity. You don't see daily anti-CDi threads.

So I guess people do like the N64, while others get mad that some people like the N64.

You are children.

Don't care about split-screen multi-player FPSes, wrestling games, or multi-player arcade-y racers?

Then yeah it basically sucks.

There are exceptions of course, but the N64's main problem was that it had way too narrow of a genre focus.

Personally I like it, but it's for a relatively small number of great games. The overall library is still lacking.

It really has more to do with the multi-player than anything. N64 was the console for kids who had sleepovers with three or more other kids every friday night.

Kids who were less social, or just not into split-screen multi-player, were all on the PS1. And of course anyone who wanted non-Pokémon RPGs or a decent selection of sports games.

If anything, JFG is always commented to be one of the most overlooked games from Rare. Everyone raves about Banjo or Goldeneye, even Perfect Dark, but JFG is kind of the less popular Rare N64 game along with Blast Corps. Funnily enough, both Blast Corps and JFG are the Rare games I liked the most on the N64, personally.
I've never read anyone claim JFG is either the best game ever or a classic.

You pulling this from your ass. The ps1 had tekken, street fighter alpha 3 and a fuckton of fightans and beat'em ups. It also outsold the n64 worldwide. Op is right and only many years later due to some unknown reasos the n64 got labeled as "the best console of all time".

PSX was for two types of people: shut-in weebs and their jayarpeegee and poorfags who couldn't afford a proper PC to play most of the games on the thing in high resolution. N64 supported 4 player action on nearly every game so you could play the vidya with your friends and generally have a great time. But you probably didn't have any of those.

Nice shitpost. Im betting my left bollock you was born in the mid 90s and "met" the n64 and ps1 via emulation in 2010s after seeing some youtube e-celeb mentioning them.

And once again, the ps1 was vastly superior in the multiplayer options. Screen split in 4? Enjoy your squinting, lower framerate and other bs from n64 limitations. I still had much more fun with my friends playing tekken 3, drinking pepsi and laughing than you ever had with your emulator alone in your room.

PS1 sold because of the games. N64 sold because of the multiplayer modes. Big difference in the appeal. Mario 64 was basically the only major exception and OoT mostly sold to kids who already had the hardware and wasn't a system seller to the degree that like FF7 was.

Each console had their hits for various reasons. If I had 2 people over then give me as ps1. If I had a party give me an N64. At the end of the day if I were playing by myself... give me the psx any day of the week. So many N64 games were absolute garbage outside of their multiplayer hits.

Nintendo used to be a respected and feared company in the video game market with the NES and SNES, and was the leader. The N64 (or rather the PS1) changed that forever. I say it's understandable to see how the N64 just can't compare to the NES or SNES, and is especially jarring to know that Nintendo is no longer the king player in the market. It's been over 20 years, but I still haven't accepted the Playstation as the dominant platform, though I do admit it has made Nintendo seemingly irrelevant nowadays.

I'm 30, and I fucking loved the PSX back in the day, along with all my friends.

It undeniably had the best RPGs, the best fighting games, the best racing games, and the best strategy games. Some of the Japanese imports, in particular, were pretty damn cutting-edge for their time.

What it lacked were party games, like Mario Kart, Goldeneye, and Smash Bros. But I never really cared, because I've always had little interest in such games. Why bother?

PSX also lacked FPS games, but that was irrelevant because that was the golden era of online PC FPS titles (Q2, HLDM, TFC, CS, etc).

The N64 I find only succeeded world wide because it's Nintendo. The Saturn is far more deserving(the n64 sold like crap in Japan apparently). It's not terrible, but out of the main three...It's definitely the worse. The cartridges were the hinderence. Also, they tried too hard to push 3d in your face.

Debatable. It had the best REALISTIC racing games by default since the N64 didn't have any and only had "arcade atyle" racers, but overall the N64 had MK64, FZX, Cruisin', etc. Great selection with some majorly strong standouts that made up in quality where it lacked in quantity in comparison to the PS1.

>>2393352
The "people only buy Nintendo because it's Nintendo" argument is bullshit. Nintendo is a joke of a company that no one takes seriously. The system sold because of Mario 64 and multiplayer, simple as that. That's why it didn't sell in japan, because japan doesn't like 3D platformers and doesn't give a flying fuck about multiplayer.

Listen up kids, stop trying to pretend that you're more mature or simply more experienced by saying that N64 was a piece of shit. I've been playing videogames since when the first Atari pc games were released, and trust me, I can say that N64 was the best console anyone of my generation had ever seen until PS1 came out. I still remember that day when my dear friend invited me to his home to play Pro evolution soccer on the N64. You kids can't obviously understand the amazing feelings we had while playing for the first time, on our tv screens, the funniest 3d games evere created.

I think most people actually feel that way. It's just that here (and in other pretendo fag heavy hellholes) the minority are VERY outspoken. They endlessly shitpost, samefag and rant like absolute loons, stating opinions as facts. And that can give the impression that something is more liked than it is.

I don't really dislike the N64, but it's more of a niche console. It had maybe 10 "must play" games, but the PSX has over 200, easily. There's just no comparison, honestly.

It's like people who liked the PS3 over the 360. They are entitled to their opinion, and they had decent points, but they also missed out on over 90% of the best games of the gen.

That's what being an N64 fan is, honestly.
You like a few really good games, so you readily overlook the sheer volume of awesome shit on other consoles in order to cling on to your desperate fantasy. And you obsessively play those 10 gems for the rest of your days, totally oblivious to what you missed out on.

Eh, PS1 probably has about 30 "must play" games, maybe more if you're a big JRPG fan (i'm not a big fan of JRPGs of that era, however, I prefer either older, or more recent RPGs).

I can probably count the same amount of "must play" games in all 3 main consoles of 5th gen.
You can tell me that you like lesser known PS1 games and I have my own favorites too, but when it comes down to it, the actual "must play" are only a few.

What you guys don't understand is that /vr/ also has older guys, a lot of us don't care about your own childhood console war expansion on the internet. When the 5th gen started, I was already earning my own money and owned all 3 consoles (and PC), I kind of know the catalogues of all 3 consoles very well.

N64 is overrated, but also underrated by Nintendo detractors.
PS1 is also highly overrated. Damn, the amount of shovelware I had to swim through in order to find a few decent games back in the day.... good thing my PS1 was chipped and I didn't spend too much money on most of them, anyway.

Probably the only console that wasn't overrated back then was the Saturn, because of how awful the marketing and handling of it outside of Japan was.

Fanboys are annoying in all their forms and flavors. Personally I can't stand PS1 or Sony fanboys in general. Nintendo and Sega fanboys are annoying too, but the SNES vs Genesis wars are now kinda niche, since most of the people who actually were alive back then are now 30+ and don't have time to shitpost. Right now the console war shitposting focus are the kids born in the 90s who grew up with either the PS1 or the N64.
I would hate N64 fanboys if they spammed "PS1 sucks" threads, but it's the other way around, so I'm blaming Sony fanboys of being the worst right now.

I dunno, Mario 64 in particular seemed like there was objectives, things I had to defeat, sequences I had to complete, stuff like that.
Banjo Kazooie felt like the only goal was to get everything. Yeah, in Mario you defeated bosses to get stars and in Banjo you defeats bosses for Jiggies but it felt more... substantial? in Mario.

Maybe it's just how I look at them, but Mario felt like a game with more depth than Banjo although it's hard for me to really explain why when I think about it.

It just seems more collecting oriented than platforming. In Mario you could do some really neat stuff with practice and skill, I never really encountered much of that with Banjo Kazooie.

No, it's not overrated. The games are always what received praise, not the system architecture, appearance, or way it performs. If there were no good games it would have been a total waste and nobody would have put up with it but then again that could be said for any system. It could have been another Virtual Boy even the library had been any less compelling than it turned out to be.

To this day, I 'm still surprised they managed to program fully functioning games on this. I personally think the PS1 runs laps around it and I grew up with Nintendo btw, so there's no bias.

How is that a troll post though the best NES games like megaman, ninja gaiden, castlevania the 8 bit versions were all the best in the series and it had the most to offer, the SNES came close but the games were a bit on the easy side and only someone obsessed with jRPGs would say its the best, the 64 was cool and original and did its own thing and had some neat games, then came the gamecube which was alright but muh pikmin muh smash aren't better than the best n64 games nowhere even close. Wii is useful as a homebrew machine and then wii u is just poop cause not too much on it yet.

Why?

>the SNES came close but the games were a bit on the easy side and only someone obsessed with jRPGs would say its the best

The multplayer games were a lot better. Like Zombies ate my Neighbors.

I like both though. I;d consider them equal.

>then came the gamecube which was alright but muh pikmin muh smash aren't better than the best n64 games nowhere even close
I agree. I didn't play the whole life of GC though. I missed out playing Zelda TP.
WW was really good but WWHD is better.
Luigi's Mansion and Mario Sunshine were good.
Super Monkey ball was one of the better multplayer games I've played.

>Wii is useful as a homebrew machine and then wii u is just poop cause not too much on it yet.
I can't get past the wii waggle controls. And the controller isn't to my liking.

Wii U though is pretty damn great right now.
Got MK8 and WWHD which I'd consider some of the best.
Lots of promise with the games coming out also.

If you were an idort, Saturn+N64 was much better choice. That's what I played the most anyway. PS1 was the 3rd console I only used to play anime games and it wasn't until 1998 or so that MGS came out when I started giving it more attention.

Most of what is worth on 64's library I emulated when I was like 10 (I'm 20 now before underage b8)
In an alternate scenario that I grew up with the 64 and had to emulate psx instead, I would have missed much more, as there would be way too much stuff to catch up, and PSX isos are much bigger and less accessible (at the time) then 64 roms.
So I'd have missed much more.

And no, didn't have a Saturn, now THAT'S quite a few great misses.

It is now, but I'm not sure how stable it was back in the days.
They were also less accessable because of the huge filesizes, so there's that too.

I do remember playing Goemon, but they are faint memories. Never played the other two though, so I'll give them a try when I have the time, thanks.
I still think the PSX has a lot more obscure (and not obscure) gems though. I can't imagine myself growing up without things like Sotn, RE3, KOF, and that cool Spiderman game, to name a few of the top of my head.

The PSX also had superior versions of some games, when I first played 64 Megaman Legends and Tony Hawk it just felt incredibly off, even as a kid.

The few games the n64 has going for it are the best of the generation imo, Majoras Mask, Banjo Tooie and Kazooie, Conker, Perfect Dark, Mario 64. These alone make me favor it. Also I can upscale n64 games in an emu and they look decent. PSX graphics upscaled introduce jitter, and doesn't do much to fix the gfx. Psx looks like shit.

It already happened with the SNES like 10 years ago when emulation came to a head. The difference here is that the SNES won that generation by a landslide due to its massive library of awesome shit compared to every other console. The Earthbound community is already on its third generation of fans since the emulation revival.

So no, you're only half right. You have the reaction to nostalgia casuals, but you also have a system that just wasn't that great overall.

Well it's more of the storage space not being worth the expense. N64 probably had more raw power for 2D than Saturn or PSX, but Saturn's 2D was good enough to do pretty much everything so there was no point.

no, but its hard to go back too and play.

I was entering 5th grade when this came out and it was my everything in middle school.

after college i tried getting back into it because gamestop was emptying their n64 trash and I got some AAA games for $10 a pop back in 09. Hard... so hard, idk what it is. Its not the controller, its something abou the graphics and game play. Its like that transition from 2D to 3D made for some bare bones kind of playing.

its like going from the quality on the genesis/snes and looking at sega Cd, 3DO, or the jaguar.

Playstation went thru that phase. Think FFVII and then look at FFVIII.

Im not implying the n64 has shitty games, just period specific games that just dont hold up anymore.

Cartridge space. You need a lot of it to hold animation frames for all of the characters in the fighting game. Marvel vs Capcom is about 47MB, around the same size as Pokémon Stadium 2, one of the later carts. So it's certainly possible on N64, but it would just need to be on a damn expensive cartridge. Combined with Nintendo's high licensing fees and the controller not really being suitable to fighting games, and you don't have much of a justification for releasing 2D fighters.

The N64 had about the same amount of RAM as the Saturn though.

Because at the time 2d games were out of vogue. Anyone around in the 5th gen probably remembers how big of a thing 3d gaming was then, nobody talked about 2d games anymore, at least in the US. It's part of the reason the N64 and PS1 did so much better than the Saturn here.

I can name the games I actually really like on n64 on one hand.

>Gauntlet Legends
>Ogre Battle 64
>Blast Corps
>Mario Party

Everything else is incredibly meh. The only reason I give a shit about the N64 gauntlet is because it does something the others don't let you do, which is choose when to use your items.

There really isn't anything else super fun on the system. The games that are commonly hailed as amazing like SM64, DK64, Banjo-Kazooie are collectathons and generally more tedious and boring then fun. Perfect Dark and Golden Eye have aged horribly, and most of the other 3D platformers and action games on the system are pretty awful to control, due to easily one of the worst, least intuitive controller designs I've ever seen.

Mario Party is one of your favorite N64 games?

I think one of the reasons a lot of people kind of resent the 64 is because most of you had only a handful of games for it, and you decide whether or not the catalogue is good or bad from your own tiny experience.

I won't believe anyone who says they can count the good N64 games with one hand, then go on to list Mario party, but ignore completely stuff like Goemon or Sin and Punishment. Come on.

I never really cared for Zelda, and I feel like OoT was the beginning of teh decline. Way too much focus on story as opposed exploration and dungeon crawling, which is what the series was about. It was too scripted. Go here with X item so you can get into Y area and then do it all over again.

Haven't read much of this thread, more of the same. I guess I'm not so invested in video games anymore to care or get angry about opinions.

I grew up with the PS1 and everyone had a N64, could never understand why people loved it so much other than having grown up with it. There were a few alright games I guess, but it was never my thing no matter how much I tried to get into it. PS1 is way better, I know it's due mostly to nostalgia, but I was a poorfag so I didn't discover many games on the system until later and I'm not really a fan of the 5th gen anyway.

I think it's appropriately rated considering the overwhelming number of people who say it's overrated.

Honestly it's a fine console. It was probably the last console that actually offered something different than the competitor (lack of load times, texture filtering, etc) aside from the wii (but it didn't offer much to the games themselves, just a waggle stick that was improperly and under utilized).

Anyway. It's a fine console with a decent amount of good games and a bunch of shitty games. Probably has the worst lineup of first party Nintendo games though. Mario 64 gets pretty clusterfucky in the later levels, and Yoshis Story is a joke... Introduced Mario Sports titles, and Mario kart 64 isn't really much more fun than the SNES version (though it added a bunch of features that were much improved in later titles).

Still, it has Perfect Dark, the Zeldas, Goldeneye (for multiplayer), and Doom64... Conkers... Turok 2... Decent amount of good games.

Not at all a fine console (and I still own one) the textures were ludicrously rudimentary owing to Nintendo's bizarre loyalty to the cartridge format, not to mention the production costs and commensurate game prices, but it did have some really great, important games on it. And lots and lots of shovelware. The ratio of good to bad is far too low.

Oh yeah? Well I own 2! Found one in a parking lot, so apparently someone agrees with you. (found a PS2 there too).

Different strokes for different folks. PS1's discs allowed for more information, better music, sounds textures (aside from them being unfiltered, which looks nicer for low res textures in my opinion anyway). N64 had some better rendering techniques and blah blah blah. PS1 is better in my opinion, but there was nothing wrong with owning and n64 at the time if you could afford it. I wouldn't have complained as a kid. Only had a ps1, but played n64 at my friends house all the time.

Right, because you were too young to know any better and bought into that filth.

Gen5 was a fucking abomination with clunky 3D games that nobody could enjoy playing now, and they hid this fact with "beautiful" CGI cutscenes, while Nintendo was pushing their casual garbage with bad camera systems that you only like because they had Mario in them.

Lots of "my personal taste in games = universal truth" here.

Saying the N64 had next to no RPGs or survival horror games is a fact, along with saying the PS1 had next to no 4 player games. Whether you like any of those genres is for you to decide for yourself.

I dunno, I like the N64 myself, not my favorite console but it has a lot of great games that are personal faves of mine.

I don't think it's actually overrated though, some games may be overrated, but the console itself has a lot of underrated games, so it can't be overrated as a whole.

The fact remains that the PSX just has more must play games. And the N64 had just as much shovelware and rushed ports, honestly.

And, as I said in my first post, N64 fans really are nostalgiafags who obsess over a handful of AAA games endlessly, TOTALLY oblivious to the world around them. MORE than happy to tell everyone why their taste is "superior".

PSX fans are dicks at worst. We point out things that people don't want to acknowledge and argue with man-children

Also, JRPGs get a bad rep these days. They're some of the most innovative games on all platforms they've appeared on (until recently, anyway) and without them, some non RPGs would never have been made, because the ideas that spawned them had to come from somewhere.
So counting out an entire genre and set of subgenres because YOU don't like them is silly. I don't like Mario 64 of similar colectathons, but I still count them on the N64 "must play" list. Because it's stupid not to. The fans LOVE the fucking thing, and it's widely hailed as one of the greatest games ever. And I can see quality in games that I happen not to enjoy playing (being that I'm not autistic.) So eat a dick on that one, bud
Oh, and age doesn't work as an argument. I started gaming in the mid 80's too. I was just younger than you. I probably played all the same games you did back then, so stuff it grandpa.

I will admit to being biased to the PSX in general, but there's a fucking reason for that. I owned both consoles back in the day, and I genuinely enjoyed the PSX more.

It had more genres, more sub-genres, more games in general and more FUN.

And no, I don't count shovelware in my "200 must play games" claim (though it's admittedly a bit high of a number). To me, shovelware are sequels made with the same engine and cheapy shit games made with no money. And most of THOSE came out either very early or very late in the PS1s life cycle.

And honestly, I count Tekken 1 as shovelware. So don't even try to argue with me on this.

That's because Saturn was not a common console in the mid 90s households in the west. I had a Saturn (and also N64 and PS) but I didn't know anyone else who did, everyone had either N64 and PS.

The people that browse 4chan now, who are mostly 20-something guys, are people who grew up with either the PS or the N64, and need to shit on each other, you know, because that's how people behave in the internet.

Being an idort is actually kind of boring, because you read all that nonsense console war stuff and wonder... why? all consoles have something to offer. Why shit on the competition?

I've always had pretty personal reasons for hating the N64. My brother sold the PS1 to buy it. I lost MGS1, Tekken 2/3, Tench 1/2, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, FF7, Wipeout, Soul Edge, Resident Evil 1/2, Parappa, Twisted Metal, Dark Stalkers, Spider-man, Tomb Raider, Crash Bandicoot, Ape Escape and Soul Reaver.

I'm pretty sure you have Tony Hawk 2, Reisdent Evil 2, Spider-Man on N64 as well. Not like I think any of these games are actually that good or essentials, except for Resident Evil 2. And before you say RE2 on N64 is bad, no, it's actually better than the PS1 version. (Although Dreamcast or Gamecube versions are probably the best overall).

As for Wipeout, you've got Wipeout 64, but it doesn't matter because N64 has F-Zero X anyway.

>Only games I still remember are Mario 64, Fighter's Destiny and Golden Eye.

Oh, and Darkstalkers (or any Capcom fighting port) on PS1 isn't that good. If you want to play 2D fighting games, you should have gone for the Sega Saturn.

When you get a N64 you need to know what you're getting: a handful of amazing Nintendo games and pretty much nothing else. For a lot of people those games alone justify the purchase.

It was not a particularly advanced console for its time, but the use of cartridges gives it a nostalgic feel, despite being a terrible business decision.

Even though this is the most blatant display of bait posting ever/some faggot fishing for 2 million guaranteed replies and getting it, I'd like to address a few things because you tried so hard

The N64 has never been overrated. Most people don't have enough shitty words in their vocabulary to describe it, it bombed hard and was followed by the Gamecube which also bombed hard. Despite that, the '64 had a handful of ground breaking, generation defining games which you could only play on THAT machine. That's where Nintendo maintained their grace.

What are frequently "overrated" though are the games on it, most often Super Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time, which I don't think are overrated either, because if you were anywhere from the ages of 5 to 15 during the time that pure and unadulterated magic was bottled and shipped out to stores your fucking brain broke a hundred different ways trying to cope with what you were playing as you foamed at the mouth and your eyes spun around in clockwise motions. There was quite simply NOTHING like as fluid, free, gorgeous and visually and technically compelling as Super Mario 64 at the time. And it was a launch title to boot.

I kind of hate that Nintendo always felt "behind" when it came to the N64/GCN/Wii era. They went from becoming known for being a powerhouse to always being "last gen" to make profits by selling old hardware at modern prices, but $100-$50 less than the competition.

NES and SNES era felt strong because they took the medium to the limit and basically made the best shit out of 2D pixels.

Wii U actually feels "right" to me, supporting all the modern features finally. XBox 1 and PS4 basically upgraded themselves into a corner and feel literally the same as last gen.

N64 hate has very little to do with the quality of the console itself (although I don't like it personally).

A lot of it is a knee-jerk reaction to uninformed assholes who think Mario and Banjo are all there is to the 5th gen. People who think they're experts but they're massive plebs.

It's the same reason /mu/ hates dadrock and I totally understand it to a point.

The same thing is happening with people who hate the SNES because hipster assholes think they're experts because they've played super obscure games like Zelda.

does not excuse for not having anything better to compare to, I actually like what some PS1 games did by using CGI to render the characters in high quality while keeping gameplay stuff simple without having tons of cheap illusions all over the place.

It also had expensive-as-all-fuck-to-produce cartridges that didn't have even enough space for high-quality textures (The horrible texture-filter "hides" it.) or CD-quality audio. If you want to talk about the aspects that make the system pretty as opposed to the actual capabilities of the CPU, you chose the wrong console.

Banjo feels like it was designed to be a babysitter, keeping kids occupied with mindless fetch quests. Is there any interesting gameplay / platforming in this title?
Mario 64 is so much better it's ridiculous.

It does play smooth and still looks alright, I'll give it that. Sound design is on par too.

SM64 offers more freedom behind Mario's movement and his sense of momentum is really thrilling. BK's got platforming in it, but it feels less like a platformer as there are fewer movement options for Banjo than there are for Mario. Plus his moveset is cumulative and develops over the course of the game, whereas Mario has everything but a few hats right from the get-go.

>>	Anonymous Mon, May 18, 2015 17:38:57 No.2411521 As a console? Yes. Because you can't name a console that's good at all. PC is not a console, mind you. But if you're talking about the games it had, while most were average to bad, the few games that were good turned out to be damn great classics.

Aye, the momentum behind Mario is key. Banjo & K feels more similar to games with tank controls.

Just walking up to trees in Mario and watching birds fly out in natural patterns... the mushroom kingdom has never felt as good before or there after to me.

>GC has less good games than N64

That's a good one, m8. Maybe it's easier to remember the goliaths like Zelda and Mario on the N64, but there's hardly anything else worth mentioning in the N64 library that the Gamecube didn't already improve on.

Off the type of my head:
>Animal Crossing
>Paper Mario
>Smash Bros
>Mario Kart
>F-Zero

In addition to the following GCN games:
>Pikmin
>Metroid Prime
>Viewtiful Joe
>Resident Evil 4
>Custom Robo
>Chibi Robo

Sure, the N64 has SM64 over Sunshine and both Zelda games over the two that appeared on the Gamecube, but there's still a ton to look forward to.

My first console was the Super Nintendo. I played a ton of the Disney games developed by Capcom.

If all you want out of a system are platformers, then I guess the N64 would be a better choice. But even I wouldn't say that Rare's games have aged well enough to still be called good nowadays.

Am I being reverse trolled or something? Would you rather me straight out call those games shit?

I can at least say that Banjo-Kazooie is certainly better than Banjo-Tooie, if only because the sequel had too much scope but not enough focus. The levels were larger, sure, but they managed to be less dense than the ones in Banjo-Kazooie. Not to mention that more of the Jiggies in the game came down to mini game shenanigans instead of through actual feats of platforming. Not that Banjo-Kazooie ever demanded much from the player in that regard either, but Tooie just handled it poorly.

Donkey Kong 64 just took things even further down the wrong direction by limiting who can collect what while still further ostracizing the game from the platformer genre. I'd sooner call this an Adventure game than what I would associate as a platformer. Not that the "Adventure" genre is well defined by any means, but it certainly isn't a rewarding experience as a platformer.

Games don't age.

Recently there's been a lot of PS2 and GC talk too. And any fucking criticism about is just met with "ya well the games are better" shit.

Both are pretty fucking shit in their own way. GC's lack of games outside of multiplayer ones and PS2's lazily designed games.

Ya GC had some good games but it's only slightly better than the Wii really.
