you forgot to mention that data could be stremlined in real time from cartridges, which is a big plus.

alos the co-processor did more harm than good, i think SGI really screwed it up for Nintendo with a flawed design

Data can be streamed from optical disc aswell, so I don't call that a plus.
The advantage with the carts is the potentially more bandwidth and basically zero access times.

thats what i meant

I said all of the cool ones, didn't I? :P

no Perfect Dark or Goldeneye, Star Wars or any of the Turoks...nope not even close.

Meh, maybe those games were cool 15 years ago. Goldeneye is on Wii, just not the N64 version. You can play Rogue Squadron 2 on Wii, much better than any Star Wars game on N64. Virtual Console also has the Super Star Wars titles.

Regardless, if you could own only one Nintendo console, but had access to its entire library, there's an obvious winner. Those few N64 games aren't going to outweigh the entire NES and SNES Virtual Console catalogues, much less the combined GameCube and Wii libraries in addition to that.

I could see someone making a case for the Wii U. Although it loses a massive collection of titles with the loss of GameCube backwards-compatibility, a good chunk of the GameCube's best games were re-released as Wii titles, making them accessible to Wii U owners.

but you dont have access to the entire library. Thats what you dont seem to be getting. GE for N64 is not GE for Wii to even compare the two tells me you must have never played the former. GE for Wii is pretty much Bond of Duty. Nothing wrong with that, i like the game. BUt it is what it is. Hell there was an even better version of that game on HD. At the end of the day its all subjective but lets be real, how much games were released on N64? how much of those games are actually on the VC? a little less than 20? cause if you are telling me those were the best the console had to offer and you dont need anything else, then n64 was truly a craptastic system.
