That's all Nintendo had to do was put N64 games on CD instead of expensive carts and Nintendo would have beaten Sony PS1 in 1996 and won the generation and would be #1 today even before Switch..
N64 was an awesome system and sold a million systems rght off thanks to Super Mario 64. There were no other games though and 3rd parties flocked to PS1. GameCube was CD based and powerful too but too little too late. Sony won again with PS2 and even Xbox came in 2nd place.
Nintendo made a big comeback with Wii over 100 million systems sold but motion controllers became a fad and even Kinect eventually failed. The Wii U dud had graphics as good as 360 and PS3 but PS4 and Xbox One arrived a year later and Wii U disappeared.
Now Switch has sold over 900,000 systems in USA in March alone. Maybe Switch which is ironically cart based can win next generation even with Scorpio on horizon. Nintendo owes it to N64 which I would like compilation carts of on Switch! NES and SNES too!
