Has there ever been a worse time to be a Nintendo fan?

The last years of the N64 were much worse.

Eh not really.

1999 -Donkey Kong 64, Jet Force Gemini, Star Wars Episode 1 Racer, Pokemon Stadium, Pokemon Snap, Ogre Battle 64, NBA Courtside 2, Griffey Slugfest

2000 - Zelda: Majora's Mask, Perfect Dark, Banjo-Tooie, Ridge Racer 64, Excitebike 64, Mario Tennis, Kirby 64, Starcraft 64

2001- Conker's Bad Fur Day, Paper Mario

2001 was bad, but 2001 also had both the GBA and GCN launches, so kinda hard to say that was a bad time for Nintendo fans.

I'd say '99 was a bit of a weak year, but 2000 was outstanding, barring Nintendo's bizarre decision to not bring Sin & Punishment to the West.

For me as a european who only got three (!) games in 2001 (a very bad rpg, a Tony Hawk game and Conker, none of them interested me (yes, not even Conker)) and a Gamecube that released on May 3th 2002, I can fairly say that 2001 was very bad. Much worse than 2016.

EDIT: Yeah, Paper Mario came that year. Still.

you could have imported Starcraft 64 from Australia same format, PAL
