It's funny that a lot of people ran to the PS1 to play FF7 and FF8. I bought them on my computer and they looked great, much better than PS1.

N64 had Mario 64 before 3D platformers were good. N64 had Goldeneye before console FPS games were good. Plus, they had Ocarina of time which has been considered one of the best games of all time for a while now. They also had Manjora's mask, which I thought was as good as OOT, but with its own twist.

Harvest moon 64 was better on the N64 even though it was almost identical to the PS1 version. Why? Long loading times on the PS1; A problem inherent with its disk based format.

We also can't forget: Star Fox 64, Donkey Kong 64, Banjo Kazooie (and Tooie), Paper Mario 64 of which I don't think there are games on the PS1 that compare.

You also can't forget how flimsy the PS1 was. You could scratch the disks by looking at them too hard. The PS1 had a hard time correcting even some of the minor scratches. You could freeeze the console by touching the disk cover, or walking to heavily near it. I remember my friends N64; He dropped it down the stairs 3 times and it still works. I dropped a fouton beam on that same console from 15 FT. and took a chunk out of the casing and it still works. I think you could play football with it.

The PS1 sold more than the N64. It's just proof that most consumers don't know good gaming when they see it.

That same logic could be applied to the 360 and PS3 this gen.
