Aged well from a gameplay perspective or visually? Because I think there are a lot of other N64 games that have gameplay that totally stands up to today's standards.

>only game only the n64 has aged well
>only

I feel like most people that say this try to play their N64 games on emulators or through A/V cables and a HDTV.

I have a XRGB mini and play through S-Video and lemme tell ya, the games look fine. Foreign games I play through an Everdrive 64.

>Mario 64
>Harvest Moon 64
>Kirby 64
>Evangelion
>Sin n Punishment
>Goemons
>Hybrid Heaven
>Rocket: Robot On Wheels
>Space Station Silicon Valley
>Paper Mario
>Ogre Battle 64
>Zeldas
>Smash 64
>Conker
>Banjos
>Chameleon Twist
>Mischeif Makers
>Bomberman Hero
>Bomberman 64 1 and 2
>Buck Bumble
>F-Zero X
>Starfox 64

and thats not counting the racers like Mario Kart, Diddy Kong, Mickey, Snowboard kids, etc.

Basically, you're writing off a lot of good games and thats a shame.

Do people dislike Yoshi's Story? I always thought it was fine, the ost was pretty good too.
>>
Do you think Yoshi ever gets embarrassed by the way all those fruits makes all his eggs smell?
>>
Ruin Yoshi by using its sound effects for every game afterward.

It tried to do "choose your own adventure", but that means in order to play all 24 levels on the game, you have to replay the story mode at least 6 times.

The game is mostly too easy, except if you want to play trial mode and go for highest score, then it becomes incredibly difficulty (any fruit that isn't a melon = poison).

It's got really good production values, I like the controls, the aesthetics and detail put into it, the game has a lot of character, but the design is too weird for its own good.
>>
>>318344795
I can immediately think of three games besides Yoshi's Story that fit that criteria

Wave Race 64, Mischief Makers, and Sin & Punishment

I really don't understand how you can call the rest of the N64's library poop. Have you played any recently?
>>
>>318344401
This game is pretty hard if you do melon only runs. I'd like it more if you couldn't just lose the melons forever due to fucking up a finicky minigame.

OP here, I'm not sure if people dislike Yoshi's Story, but I sure do think that it's an incredibly ODD game from a design perspective, as mentioned by >>318345763

>>318345797

It's hip to hate on the N64 and Playstation these days, anon. That's literally the only reason.

>only game only the n64 that has aged well.
I think Kirby 64 looks pretty good because of how simple it all is.
>>
>>318345959

Yeah, he's right. The choose your own adventure crap is the main problem with the game.

They could remake it and make it linear and ultimately, it would be better.

So it has the same problem as Shadow the Hedgehog?
>>
>>318346060
Would it? There's still the issue of the gameplay being either babby easy or stupid difficult and requiring a guide of some sort to know that there's a specific pixel you're supposed to ground pound to find a hidden fruit.
>>
>>318344525
Yoshi's Story didn't age remotely well. Hell, it wasn't that good to begin with.

It would be better, yeah. The layout of the level selection is the main issue.

The problems you mention would be present, but at least people wouldn't have to beat the game 6 times to see all the levels. That is pretty significant in my opinion.

They look fantastic using my XRGB mini, and on the HDTV I have, I have like 5ms of lag if that. It's pretty nice.

But I won't deny that its not the same as a RGB monitor or a tube. I just don't have the space for a tube anymore and my RGB monitor died earlier this year.

"The main portion of the game, the Story Mode contains 24 levels (four per world), but only six can be played during a single playthrough"

That's why i hate this game, they just shit in the mouth of fan, and some of them enjoy it.
Yoshi island contained at least 54 levels and some of them can be difficult, it's just the only good Yoshi's game in the serie... (i didn't tried the one on Wii U but i expect it to be casualized as hell).
>>
>>318347289

Yoshi's Wooly World is probably the best Yoshi game bar Yoshi's Island, anon. Try it sometime.

That said, it is easier, yeah.

The soundtrack was really weird

At least Yoshi's island had a theme
>>
>>318345302
Games with a "unique" art style generally age well. A lot of the Mario games have aged like fine wine just due to the simple textures being colorful, fun, and good at the time. Super Mario 3 has probably aged the worst imo and SMW being one of the better

Playing the tony hawk games on N64 now are pretty rough visually. The music and gameplay was great though.
>>
>>318348128

One of my favorite games is Metal Gear Solid. The game has atmosphere that is truly unique.

The character models look like absolute shit, though and is "aged" in that aspect. To say the entire game has "aged' as a result of one aspect of it is ridiculous though. At least in my opinion.

SMB3 looks good to me though. I just love the sprite look, and it looks better than SMB1 to me. It doesn't necessarily play better, but its a top of the genre game.

Instant death mechanics are trash. In a puzzle game, all you're doing is punishing methodical play. You ought to play something like Call of Duty instead , I'm sure it has more action and probably better survival horror too

the main theme fucking grates on the ears, man
