For graphics, it was N64>PS1>Saturn. For sound, though, the PS1 laid waste the N64. That's what strikes me the most whenever I play my PS1 and N64. The sound quality because of the CD medium. It was ridiculous. Also, for some strange reason, cut-scenes tended to be better on PS1 as well. But I'm not tech savvy enough to tell you why.

Is because storage space. If a nintendo 64 game went over 32mb it would teake a bigger rom chip and would be more expensive per unit to produce. For a ps1 game it was the same 32mb or 320mb, a cd would cost the same so they often put higher quality voice samples and higher quality video cut-scenes and sometimes higher quality textures. That makes an impact so it confuse some people into thinking the Ps1was more powerful. I remember a wrestling game that had more and higher quality voice samples and somebody saying look proof the Ps1 is more powerful. But that was just more storage at the same price.
