  • Nintendo 64 Retro Fascination Appreation

    I bought an N64 the other for the retro fun and other than the fact that the control stick sucks a bit for right and left, I love this thing.

    The games I have so far are Waverace, Goldeneye, and Starfox64. The last two are real calssics, and waverace is just plain relaxing.

    I wanted to buy Mario Kart, but Game Crazy was charging $20 for it! I know it is a timeless game, but charging five for Goldeneye and Starfox 64, and then rocketing up to 20 on Mario Kart is just stupid.

    Anyways, I was kind of thinking all of us who love our N64's could stop, collaborate and listen...you know start a thread about why N64 is obviously better than PS2 and talk about how what cool games we have.

      I loved Lylat Wars, some damn sweet levels, like the independence day one, and the submarine/speedboat ones for variety.

      Lets see.... oooh space station silicon valley, that was a fun game.

      edit. to clarify lylat wars is what starfox 64 got released as here.

          Ocarina and Perfect Dark got me through the last 2 years of university. I had 3 friends who I would have endless Perfect Dark sessions with. Loved that game

            N64 isn't retro...I'd already given up on consoles when the N64 came out...

                      I enjoyed pilotwings 64, although the only copy I have ever seen was the one I had.

                      Also the star wars pod racing game was really rather playable in MP

                        No it wasn't. The person who was behind in the race got an artifical speed boost. This was intended to keep races close, but in actuality just meant that the trailing player crashed more at insane velocities.

                          I guess I never really noticed because I was mostly in the lead. Might I suggest the crashing had more to do with the skills of the player

                            You may suggest it, but we carefully documented the feature. If you got a whole lap behind your maximum speed would increase to about double its normal value.

                              Try and get Mario 64, if you can. Great game.
