Why Nintendo 64 rocked!

[Toe]

Watch The Video!

The video just made me remember how awesome that system really was. Games like Goldeneye and Star Fox 64 blew me away back in the day and seeing the video brought back some found memories. They don't market systems like that anymore, either.

Man... That's totally unrealistic. Everybody knows, Sony sends ninjas to do their corporate terrorism.

But, yeah. Starfox 64 rocked. I always thought it was funny how Nintendo would come out with a good idea for their controllers, like 6-button controllers, force-feedback, and analogue sticks, then Sega/Sony would immediately copy them.

My favorite level was that snowy one where you first met Star Wolf. The one where you fight your way through the entire Andross Armada was pretty cool though, but the boss for that stage was gay.

Star Fox 64 was an incredibly fun game but it was just too damn short.

As soon as I get off of work, I'm gonna go home and play it. Good f'ing times.

Starfox 64 was amazing, true. That advert was unspeakably lame, though.

Does Nintendo Power still exist?

[Damian WayLNKe]

It's funny that I actually remember seeing that video/commercial.

Does Nintendo Power still exist?

[crazedfan]

I'm pretty sure I still have this on VHS. Good times...

You know why N64 rocked? 3 Simple words

NO FUCKIN MERCY!

I loved that game, my friends and I poured hours of our lives in that game. We made tournaments, battle royales and everything. I remember we broke my friends n64 because we overheated it cuz we played soo long

[Toe]

No Mercy was good, but Super Smash Brothers and Battletanks were the best multi-player games on the system in my opinion.

[Riceman 4K]

Goldeneye, No Mercy and Perfect Dark were the games to play on the N64. Hell, my friends who weren't wrestling fans loved putting their CAWS in a battle royale to see who was the best.

Good times...

Goldeneye >* (including No Mercy)

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I don't think I EVER played on an N64

...which is why I never badmouth it. I've played on pretty much every other Nintendo console though.

Goldeneye was a superb game, and I don't even like shooter games.

No Mercy was just kinda "meh" for me. Didn't like how it played.

Super Smash Bros was pretty awesome, better than Melee for GC.

Star Fox 64 I kinda enjoyed.

I also loved the mini games in Pokemon Stadium.

But overall I felt that N64 and GC were a step down from NES and SNES. But I have a feeling that Wii will be Nintendo's best console since SNES.

[Trav226]

Oh yea I forgot about Super Smash Bros. Till this day im scared of hammers

[Fanku Kaibutsu]

Super Smash Bros was pretty awesome, better than Melee for GC.

In my college dorm, we made sure we had an N64. I got to play through Orcarnia of Time again, as well as Majora's Mask. Banjo-Kazooie and Super Mario 64 too. I relived some racing with Mario kart 64 and Diddy Kong Racing. No Mercy as well as WCW/NWO Revenge handled wrestling. Then, if really bored, Goldeneye would be there.

Let's not forget the ultra fun Star Fox 64, Super Smash(which, I don't think is better than Melee, but is great nonetheless). N64...such a great system.
