I'm pretty sure the NX is not actually named the NX!

I'm talking about the entire generation not just 97. I think the first Jedi Knight was out by then but I don't remember the campaign all that well. But as you said, Quake was out and the multiplayer in that game blew away Goldeneye's multiplayer.When people talk about Goledeneye they usually go on and on about how fun it was to play locally with friends but games like Quake did multiplayer better.

Also, the controls is another issue I have with them. Goldeneye (and Perfect Dark) were incredibly good games for their time but they both were gimped by the incredibly weird design of walking and aiming with the same stick. That made them so annoying to play compared to other N64 games that did it right (Turok) and almost unplayable comared to mouse look games.

Still blows anything on the PS1 out of the water though.

 Sounds exactly like a deal huge international multi billion dollar corporations would strike. The company that controls the platform has the power. Thats why Valve wants Steam OS. Owning the platform gives you alot of power. There is no way Sony and MS would not make in some form money of Nintendo games on their consoles.

Yeah trick was changing the controls on the game to solitary.  D-pad was direction, anologue was Aim. Yeah but on release goldeneye was a revolution, and quake MP is only better in your opinion, alot off people prefered the more realistic approach of 007. Stealth, silence weapons, body damage zone(head,hand etc) and zoomable sniper rifle was all introduced by goldeneye hence why it's remembered  along side Halo CE and CoD 4 as one of the mist important shooters after DOOM

Lol, OP still up to his old antics, I see. Good luck with this thread, guys.

Graphically ffvii holds up MUCH worse than Ocarina of Time, muchhh. They are both still very repayable game play wise though, although very different. Its actually funny to think that at the time the PS1 was heralded as having better looking games (mostly due to disk space, cut scenes, game length, ) and now its quite clear that a lot of N64 games have aged MUCH better aesthetically than the competition. OoT and Rogue Squadron look solid

I disagree with the OP though, a subscription based thing makes zero sense. Its not as if Nintendo has proved having mobile apps, and they dont have shows or games that support that really.

I think Nintendo will keep it nice and simple. An NX home console and an NX handheld- with a shared integrated library that scales graphically depending on what system you play the game on. Or NO scaling at all and simply you'll be able to play the handheld NX games through your account on the home console and possibly not vice versa.

Regardless, my guess is the key will be a shared library via your account in one fashion or another. Which is a great idea and certainly could incentivizeee Nintendo's larger handheld fan base to get on board and buy the home console. If one thing has been clear in the last gen, its that Nintendo still has and extremely solid handheld fanbasd. Their next strategy surely must be combining both wings so their software output becomes easier and more streamlined

Nah, in terms of combined single player anddd multiplayer, as in a complete game, there was nothing at the level of Goldeneye out at that point. Not even on PC. You can debate Quake but many would argue it was not as smooth or enjoyable

In my eyes the single player mode arguably outshined multiplayer in Goldeneye anyway. Incredibly high quality levels, missions, options, cheats, etc

hasnt Nint been making Ninty games the entire time? How could 3rd parties pollute the systems if they are not even making games for the system? Does the OP still think we are in Wii/PS360 gen?

Essentially what I feel after reading the OP

If he is right again... Then my mind will be blown

Thanks, lol. Glad it made you laugh. I had absolutely no idea how to respond to this thread after reading it so that basically captures what my reaction was like.
