Nintendo was right to drop the SNES CD project (look at Sega CD) it's just that N64 SHOULD have been CD.

CD wouldn't have made N64 a huge success.

i think there would have been big history changes. Square wouldnt have left Nintendo and the FFVII hit would have changed the market to some extent. Several games dropped the n64 court due to its very limited memory.Metal gear would have had a better chance in landing in Nintendo for instance.Voice files were a big strain in the nintendo 64 cartridges.

SNES CD wouldnt have been a mess, but N64 would have been a different story.

Yup. More likely if Nintendo stuck with CD esp being the market leader at that time Sony and the PS1 would have fallen on the wayside of other electronic company failure consoles or at best had minor success but no where near the mega hit it became.
