Str8knox said: I was Sony exclusive and have now finally went half Nintendo. I mean, the Wii rocks.
But, not to sound trollish, but what the hell did everyone see in the N64 or the Cube for that matter? I mean, the Wii is awesome and has a nice library of games. Also, it's advertising comes across to others. (to let them know how good it is.) The Cube had practically 0 percent advertising. The Ps1, imo, had a better lineup than the n64. I mean, it had Crash, FF7, Gt1 and 2, Re1, and other awesome games. I never felt compelled to played the N64. I may download a game off the virtual console to see why the N64 was so hyped. (and still is.) |
The N64's quality titles were too few and far between. It was the first time I broke away from Nintendo and purchased a competitor system (also the first time I had money to do so) when I picked up a Playstation for Tekken 3. In a sense, the PS1 did have an overall better title, but the few winners on the N64 kicked some major ass.
The GameCube on the other hand rocked hard and people ignored it. Metroid Prime 1 & 2, Resident Evil 4, Resident Evil 0, Resident Evil Remake, ETERNAL DARKNESS, Pikmin, Viewtiful Joe (originally meant to be exclusive), Killer7 (same deal as VJ), Super Monkey Ball, Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes, Rogue Squadron II & III, F-Zero GX, Smash Bros Melee, Zelda Collector's Edition, Game Boy Player, etc. The GameCube also reinvigorated Nintendo's relationship with 3rd party companies and it started getting most of the same multiplatform titles as MS and Sony. The GameCube suffered only by having some real low points in Mario and Zelda titles. Mario Sunshine was an unbalanced mess and Wind Waker was made for a 4-year-old--and I'm not talkin' about the graphics, it was the easiest, most shallow Zelda game ever made by a long shot.
