To be perfectly honest I'll never understand why the system receives so much praise. 

Because many of the posters here are at the age where the N64 was their first console. I was a Nintendo guy through and through. Had the NES and SNES and regularly engaged in SNES vs Genesis arguments on the school bus. The N64 made me step back and re-evaluate things.  I didn't like the type of games being released for it, and the controller was horrible.

I think it single handedly made me stop playing console games for a generation and go strictly PC. If I had known better, I would have done the Playstation thing, but my mind was made up. I'm actually only getting caught up these days with a backlog of PS games I missed during that generation.

But other than the lean N64 years, I'm definitely back in the Nintendo camp.
