we werent talking strictly consoles and ill give you DD forgot about that. BUt 64 sold just as well and that was on a system that sold about 50mil? hardly 30% or 1/3

32 million

ah f**k. I honestly thought it sold more than that and i dont know why. thats not good. Ok carry on I think buy an n64 on the cheap now

Yea I remember the numbers.  It's 60, 40, 30, 20, 100, ?.  But certainly the 32 mil is puzzling because N64 has always been regarded as a successful system with great games.   Possibly the most controversial system ever made in terms of success. 

Actually SNES was more like 50 million, not 40 million.

N64 is considered a success mostly because it sold very well in America, over 20 million which is similar to PS3. It did pretty poorly everyehere else

I almost think the majority difference between the N64 and GameCube boiled down to two games -- GoldenEye and Mario 64, to which the GCN simply had no real equivalent. GoldenEye carried the N64 almost single handedly until Zelda: OoT was ready.
