Fair, the N64 couldn't run certain games because of limited memory and whatnot. But you were talking about graphics here:
Considering PS/N64 multi-plat games (ie games that could run on the N64), when gamers prefered the PS version, I'm not sure your argument completely holds water. |
THe PS and N64 versions of games are usually not that different. Hell if you really think about it, they both complement each other. For example Rayman 2, ran better on n64 looked better, but did it look and run that much better?? Did it look that much better that PS1 owners were going to shell out more money for a system to play a game that they could already play just for the sake of graphics, history says no and lets not forget the cartridges didnt allow for things like voices and better sounds, so really the issue of a PS vs. N64 version is quite subjective. Its not that they preffered it, but the differences were so minuscule that its not worth it to get it on another system
the poor Wii, is so underpowered that publishers had to hire out lower devs just to run a different version of the game on the system, while the HDs got the "actual" game (Force unleashed, wolverine, etc.) or they make a spinoff which people hate(RE) or they just say f**k it and dont even bother. Lets be real, how much multiplat games can you say that the Wii version was damn close outside of the dance and fit games that use the Wii as lead hardware anyway??? All i can think of is Sonic allstars racing, the recent CODs(and thats a stretch) and... I cant think of nothing else
