>collectathons
Well, we've already established that you're functionally retarded, so this will be a difficult sell, but yes, the N64 is home to the best games of the generation.

Want a good first person shooter? It has the best. Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Turok series, Doom, Quake, Quake 2, even a quality but censored version of Duke 3D. PD in particular is one of the best games ever made.

Want a good platformer? Super Mario 64, Banjo-Kazooie, Banjo-Tooie, Bomberman, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Yoshi's Story, Donkey Kong 64, Kirby 64, Rayman 2, Space Station Silicon Valley, the list goes on.

Want a good fighter? Super Smash Bros, Killer Instinct Gold, (most) of the Mortal Kombat games, Bio Freaks, War Gods, etc.

Want a good racing game? F-Zero X, Mario Kart 64, Diddy Kong Racing, World Driver Championship, to name only a few.

Want a good RPG? There aren't a ton to choose from, but Ogre Battle 64 and Paper Mario are two of the best ever made.

Want a good adventure game? Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Jet Force Gemini, Shadowman, the Goemon games, on and on.

Want a good slasher? Gauntlet Legends is, again, one of the best.

Want a good puzzler? Wetrix, Tetrisphere, Dr. Mario 64, Pokemon Puzzle League, etc.

Then you've got a ton of great games which barely even fit into a category, like Blast Corps, Star Fox 64, Body Harvest and more. The games are there, but we both know you're just a deranged Sony dickboy so in truth you have no interest in playing any of them.

Played it when I was 12 coming right off the last game on SNES. Hated it for being boring, easy and short. I felt like, "that's it?" when I completed it the same day I got it.

> Hated it for being boring, easy and short.
These are entirely subjective arguments given on no objective basis. Elaborate, what makes it boring?

On the topic of it being short, there's two problems with this statement: one, you are implying that any game which is short is equatable to being bad, which is like saying every arcade game ever made is bad. The second and bigger issue, is that you're wrong. It's not really a short game at all. You say you "beat" the game, but you most likely didn't really beat it. You probably sat for one play-through and thought that was the end of the game. A single playthrough is only 6 levels, and there are 24. Moreover, the levels are huge and branching routes, so you could play the game 100 times and still find new areas that you'd never found before.

If you don't like playing games about pushing high score and exploring, then okay, it isn't for you. But that doesn't make it a bad game. From a purely mechanical perspective, it's a great game.

Yoshi story is literally press forward to win levels of casual. It's barely even a game it offers zero resistance.

[Anonymous No.4503171]

>>4503068
Not him but I played Dark Legacy long before Legends, and yet still prefer the N64 version out of all of them for many reasons. The biggest strike against the 'cube version is that it is riddled with bugs, the most obvious and annoying of which is a glitch that forces you to turn on an item just to highlight it in the menu, which is not only tedious but makes it very difficult to even tell what items you have.

This goes in conjunction with my other huge gripe, which is that they got rid of the visual inventory from the N64 version, so now your items are listed as fucking words rather than icons, how lazy is that? Another thing they fucked up is you are no longer able to view your individual character's stats in your little quadrant, you can only see what stats you have after beating a level. Also, for no reason at all, there are some items you can't sell to the shop, and some that you can, unlike on N64 you can sell everything. It just feels lazy.

I could go on and on about all the shit they fucked up, like removing obelisks in favor of "gems" that you have to mindlessly collect, or how they nerfed some of the abilities.

Long story short, Dark Legacy provides roughly double the content, and to be fair there are a lot more levels and things to collect, but it does so at the cost of making the core gameplay much less intuitive and the overall package feel sloppy.

Where did this retarded meme ever come from? If I want to play a difficult game, I'll go play Alundra or something. Sometimes I just want to kick back and relax for 30 minutes. What's wrong with that? Moreover, I'm not sure how you come to the conclusion that the game is about "pressing forward to win" given that many levels require an extensive amount of platforming with wildly different obstacles. Also, like >>4503180
said, try getting all 30 melons in a level and tell me how casual it is then. It's like an arcade game, the point is to get a high score. The basic gameplay is simple and easy, but mastering it takes skill.

I've never tried that, but surely it doesn't add that much more substance to the game. Doesn't finding the melons just amount to tediously sniffing the level out so that you know where they've been hidden? That isn't good design, that's Simon's Quest-tier of trial and error nonsense.

>>4503670
Back then, N64 was the better console. Unfortunately, it was hobbled by Nintendo's bullshit regarding cartridge prices. Remember that devs had to buy the cartridges directly from Nintendo, who marked them up substantially.
Emulation-wise, I'd say that nowadays PS1 games have aged better (though not by a huge distance; they're still low-poly affairs). While you can brute-force geometry to stop wobbling and shrink pixels from bottlecap size to something more acceptable on any video card with 2+ GB of RAM, you can't do anything about the washed-out or blurry low-res textures and low-bitrate sound N64 games often ended up saddled with.

>you can't do anything about the washed-out or blurry low-res textures and low-bitrate sound N64 games often ended up saddled with.
Absolute bullshit. N64 was actually capable of producing better texture quality than either the PS1 or Saturn. Good luck getting anything like pic related on PS1/Sat, some of the better N64 games rivaled early DC/PS2 titles because the N64 was 3x more powerful than both of the other consoles. Don't confuse the graphics in your average shovelware game with what a console can produce given talented devs. Also, the "low-bitrate sound" was the resulting of having no dedicated sound chip, but that also meant that devs could actually produce BETTER sound quality on N64 than either Saturn or PS1 if they were willing to sacrifice processing power to do it.

[Anonymous No.4504529]

>>4504524
>Also, the "low-bitrate sound" was the resulting of having no dedicated sound chip
It was due to cartridges. Not having a sound chip wasn't the disadvantage that people think it is.

[Anonymous No.4504535]

>>4504529
>It was due to cartridges. Not having a sound chip wasn't the disadvantage that people think it is.
It was only due to cartridges in that you couldn't keep tons of CD-quality audio on it. However, with proper compression and given the amount you were trying to store, the cartridge format was mostly a non-issue.

[Anonymous No.4504540]

>>4504535
>with proper compression and given the amount you were trying to store, the cartridge format was mostly a non-issue.
Which is why not having a sound chip was a good thing. No sound chip at that time was natively capable of MP3 decompression.

Instead, the N64's sound duties are offloaded to the GPU, which you can microcode any decompression algorithm you want into it, including MP3.

[Anonymous No.4504546]

I'm not sure why you're explaining this to me when I basically said this exact thing in the sentence following the one you originally quoted. But I'm glad to know not everyone is retarded enough to think the N64 had bad sound capabilities.

[Anonymous No.4504553]

>>4504546
Well the point is that the blame for bad sound quality is almost solely on cartridges. There are of course limits on decompression. If you're working only on an 8 MB cartridge (like many games were early on), sound quality like this isn't going to be possible, even with decompression.

I don't see any immaturity or bigotry, just calling a spade a spade. It's not our fault that Sony soyboys always have some retarded physical problem and act like the N64 was a shit machine just because it didn't look like a pixelated mess. Calling a Sony pony a faggot is calling a spade a spade.

[Anonymous No.4504742]

>>4504732
This.

Most PS1 games ran like utter dogshit. The only reason people are tricked into thinking they didn't is because most of the well-remembered games are extremely simplistic or 2D. N64 had plenty of games with good framerate too, like F-Zero X and Yoshi's Story, both of which ran at a locked 60fps.

[Anonymous No.4504749]

Let's bring in the facts so the bullshit can stop http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthread.php?26920-Games-with-3D-graphics-running-at-60-fps-5th-Generation-Consoles

[Anonymous No.4504754]

>>4504749
Two problems with these "facts". One: Quantity doesn't matter, the PS1 has a library of 2500 games compared to the N64's roughly 400. Obviously there will be more games running at 60fps from a quantitative standpoint, but that doesn't mean the average game ran well. Two: that list isn't even correct, it's missing games that run at 60fps on N64 like Yoshi's Story. Sorry, but you're going to have to do a bit better than a 2014 forum thread to disprove anything.

[Anonymous No.4504758]

>>4504749
That list has already been debunked here. It includes a lot of games for PS1/Saturn that have a 60 FPS framerate cap but don't actually run at 60 FPS (without noting that), while missing most of the N64 that have the same thing going on.

And besides, it's not really much of a secret that PS1/Saturn have a lot more 2D games and prerendered background games.

[Anonymous No.4504772]

>>4504758
Even when you remove those you should know 60fps was rare in 3D games back then (and now too unfortunately lol) but in the N64 was even rarer for some reason. Still, it's one of the reasons F-Zero X is my most played N64 game by far.

"Games with 3D graphics running at 60 fps - 5th Generation Consoles"
If you include 2D games the list becomes way bigger, even moreso for the PS1 and Saturn. 60fps 2D wasn't anything special, it had been a standard for years.

[Anonymous No.4504817]

>>4504796
Fair enough, I didn't realize it was only 3D games. With that said, it's still missing some 3D N64 games that run at 60fps, and as >>4504758 said, some of the games on that list don't actually run at 60fps.

[Anonymous No.4504824]

The best N64 game runs at a solid 60fps and looks great.

[Anonymous No.4504836]

>>4504817
Don't they specify it for each game? Some are like "60 fps but with occasional slowdown". I haven't played all of these, not by a long shot, so I wouldn't know.

[Anonymous No.4504839]

>>4504796
The problem is - where do you draw the line of 2D vs 3D? I'd consider any game that uses pre-rendered backgrounds to be essentially 2D, even if it has polygonal characters on top.

[Anonymous No.4504845]

>>4504839
Are there pre-rendered games on that list?

[Anonymous No.4504871]

>>4504845
Just looking from the top - not going through all of them - there's Clockwork Knight and Guardian Heroes.

But pre-rendered games isn't the only uneven comparison. "Fixed plane" games should also be in a special category, 3D fighters like Tekken 3.

The most intensive 3D rendering component in that era of consoles was depth sorting polygons. If a game has a fixed camera or a fixed view, the engine doesn't have to do significant depth sorting, which means it has a much lower processing load.

There's not really many of those kinds of games on N64 either...most are your arbitrarily rotated 3D simulations.

[Anonymous No.4504882]

>>4504871
*should note I've used a very loose definition of a pre-rendered game - sort of meant a game that prominently relies on pre-rendered or 2D visuals for much of the image, even if it's not the whole thing.

Smash isn't even a SFII style fighting game, and Starfox is a rail shooter (where the horizontal/vertical shmups at?). Even Paper Mario is pretty special as an RPG.

It’s literally the best port of Starcraft! :^) Joking aside, it was a pretty damn well made port for what it was and it also got an exclusive story relevant mission plus splitscreen multiplayer with both versus and co-op (which hurts the former but benefits the latter).
>>4505776
>The system doesn't lack good games but it indeed lacks game genre variety.
Pegged it.
>rail shooter
Now this is weird to me. I’ve always heard games like Afterburner and Starfox described as such but they’re no more on-rails than any other 2D shmup, arguably less so, so why the label? I’d just call them 3D shmups since they rely on the 3rd dimension.

[Anonymous No.4505858]

>>4505851
The rail-shooter stuff is just how these third person pseudo-3D shmups are called, I know all of these are autoscrolling but it's just the name I've seen associated with them.

>>4505858
Yeah I got that, I just never understood why that was though. If I had to guess why, it would be because 2D perspective games having you scroll in one direction was a given at the time, but 3D perspective games make the movement restriction standout more since even Battlezone would let you turn.
>>4505867
I’ve never played Team Buddies even though I’ve heard of it before, I should really get around to changing that.

I recently got Rogue Squadron, but I'm not sure if the catridge is original or not.

What are the rarest N64 Games? I've noticed that bot Conker and Kirby go up to very high prices

My point is, never use gaming jurnalizm for any of your points. It sucks and it doesn't reflect consumers.

They all reflect some consumers, you just need to understand how much if at all it reflects yours.

>these are entirely subjective arguments
Just like every other argument about literally any piece of entertainment's quality. There is no objectivity to it no matter how many times your precious e-celebs claim theirs' are based in fact.
>>4511349
>the consensus (which consists of individuals) have similar opinions (which many not be based on similar reasons or experiences) collectively matters more than the opinion of the individual
Fuck off. More people feeling a certain way doesn't inherently make it more correct to feel that way. Not liking the game is fine but the fact that you need to rely on others' words and the vague claim that it's seen as mediocre publicly won't sway anyone's opinions.

Not him but F-Zero GX, while not perfect, shits on everything that the Virtual Boy and Wii U have combined. N64 is not that bad (it has F-Zero X after all!) but still.

I prefer Wipeout over F-Zero myself, but I don't believe anyone who claims to like one but not the other. They're both great. It doesn't make sense to only like one.

Starfox is not even a shmup,its a rail shooter.
The only shmup that i know of on the N64 is the Star Soldier game that is not good.

Rail shooters are just 3D shmups.

I think you accidentally played the game on easy mode without realizing (not insulting you, I did this by accident myself because I don't automatically read all Kana I see). If not, I'd like to see the pro-strats that make what you say true.

Is there any decent way to emulate this on a semi-modern system that can't run the translation team's recommended emulator?

Why did Nintendo do this? Just have one goddamn standard.

Region locking was an industry standard all the way until the PS3. At least it's relatively easy to remove the tabs on both the US SNES and N64, Japanese Mega Drive games don't even fit into the Genesis cartridge slot and PC Engine HuCards have a different pinout compared to the Turbografx-16.

Regional control working as intended. Basically Nintendo fucked you and any other importers over on purpose. Can't answer what exactly they think they gain from it. It could be them wanting to stop people in expensive regions to go for cheaper alternatives. It could also be corporate politics of not wanting to cut into the profits of regional distributors.

Maybe Nintendo is simply allergic to their audience having any control over their products.

In a lot of cases region locking is aimed mainly at the Japanese market since games have always generally been more expensive in Japan. Not retro, but Nintendo FINALLY made their first importer-friendly home system

>>4519103
If you can't wait, you can also take the back part of an US cart and swap it with the back of the JP cart. You'll need a 3.8 gamebit screwdriver to do this though, or pliers.
Also, don't forget there exist 2 types of gamebit screws, 3.8mm(used in cartridges and accessories) and 4.5mm.(used on the systems themselves, which you'll need to remove the region locking tabs on your N64)
