Here are some games that are hardly mentioned when people always go with the same N64 classics.

Rocket: Robot on Wheels
Bomberman 64
Bomerman 64: The Second Attack
Shadow Man
DOOM 64
>>
Nigga, play Paper Mario.
>>
>>321450495
Ogre Battle 64 best Ogre.
>>
Playstation 1 was better.

>>321451294

It had no number

>>321451294
N64 has better multiplayer games, but PS was better

OP here. Having a problem. All of the games are in working order because they worked on my old Nintendo 64 from a few years ago. The console itself works. But, for some reason the only game that I have that will play when it's hooked up to my flat screen is Spider Man. Like I said I know all of the cartridges work, but the only that will play on the TV is Spider Man. Anyone have this problem? Is there a way to get all the games to play on an HD TV? And Google was no help.

I never understand why people say this. My impression of gen 5 is that it was just an overall embarrassing era of gaming, with very few good games. The transition from 2D to 3D was awkward for most devs and that's why there are a lot of weird, obscure devs around gen 4 / 5. A lot of them either sold out or just went bankrupt around that time. I think the N64 and PS1 were both bad.

That being said, if I had to pick a winner, it's clearly the N64. Super Mario 64, the Zelda games, Paper Mario, Smash 64, Banjo Kazooie, etc. All of these games stand up to this day. PS1 games on the other hand aged like milk. Or more accurately, they were just never good. I don't know what happens in someone's life to make them think the PS1's terrible library is somehow good, much less better than the N64.

Name some good games aside from the ones I've mentioned. You can't.

Oh god is this a thread from Christmas 1996

>>321450495

1996 /v/ thread?

Who else remembers getting this promo VHS in the mail?

nostalgia overload right here

>>321454305
I remembered this and thought about it a few months ago. I think it's hilarious how they have the "pro gamers" come in like "quick finger".
>>
>>321452801
PS1 had a better library in every genre except maybe 3D platformers.
>>
>>321452801
>>321453486
Maybe underage but it is sort of true in the fact that a lot of those early 3d games have not aged well esp if you try hooking it up to a modern television good god the blurs. Emulators and other things kind of do help clean them up a bit though so it's nice that we have that.
>>
>>321454829
Nobody ever wants to mention any specific games though because you know they don't stand up. A few N64 games still stand up, next to no PS1 games do.
>>
>>321454829
And FPS. Then again
>playing FPS games with a controller
>>
>>321451754
Your TV probably can't see the low resolution signal (240i). Might have to pick up an upscaler.
>>
>>321453881
the transition to 3D was like a whole new brave world back then
if you actually were alive back then you would've know that

then again, you're probably just shitposting considering you're saying every PS1 game was terrible and aged like milk more than fucking Super Mario 64
>>
>>321453881

Starfox 64, Mario Kart 64, GoldenEye 007, Perfect Dark, Rogue Squadron, Mortal Kombat 3, Killer Instinct Gold, NBA Courtside 2, lots of other sports games like the early Tony Hawk and 1080 Snowboarding, wrestling games, other racing games etc.
>>
OP check into an EverDrive. Its a rom loader for the N64. A little over a $100 bucks. Really nice unit. Supports saves and has a GameShark built in. Plays 99.9% games. Even the 64DD games & imports.

Order the following:

Perfect Dark
Vigilante 8
Goldeneye
Battletanx 64
Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Super Smash Brothers
Mario Kart 64

Make sure to get the RAM upgrade as well.

Enjoy

no

>>321455215
Ape Escape, Crash, Spyro,Oddworld, Armored Core, Castlevania, Chrono Cross, Final Fantasy, Command And Conquer, Gex, Croc, Klonoa, Medievil, Mega Man, Monster Rancher, Resident Evil, tons of weird obscure shit like Jumping Flash, all those other lesser known rpgs ect ect
>>
>>321456340
>Castlevania, Chrono Cross
That's really about it. None of the other games you mentioned still stand up if you're being honest.
>>
>>321456524
any chance you could kill yourself tonight?
>>
>>321455284
You just have shitty opinions. I don't know what else to tell you. You even use the defense mechanism that "anyone who doesn't like what I like is underage". I'm older than you.

>>321455346
Those are shitty except for the Tony Hawk games and they've been outdone by some of the newer ones.
>>
>>321456340
Symphony of the Night ruined the Castlevania franchise.
Before the Castlevania was made of tight platforming whipping with skills, than it became a fucking Metroid game with rpg elements.
If they had any originality, they would have created a new franchise instead of relying on the Castlevania name.
>>
>>321456687
nice rebuttal, had to think long for that one?
>>
>>321456836
This is a common misconception. SotN did not ruin the Castlevania series, as the only one that even attempted to be like SotN after it was Order of Ecclesia, which is among the best games in the series, if not the best game in the series.

You would probably also argue that RE4 ruined RE, even though it was a great game.
>>
>>321454829
3d platformers
FPS
adventure

Playstation had better:
-movies (MGS)
-turn based RPGs
-fighting games
>>
>>321457085
What is this, ad chronadem?
>>
Guys how the fuck can I play an N64 on a gaming monitor??? Other than emulation

Wanna be able to play it without the games looking like complete shit

Any ideas?
>>
Duke Nukem 64 was a fucking BLAST for both co-op and competitive. Despite all the censoring, it's a great game and it had some mind blowing grafix back then. Make sure you give it a try.

I still remember playing it with my cousins back then and ending up sucking our 9 years old ducks afterwards with some of them.

Some other honorable mentions: Jet Force Gemini, Aerofighters Assault, Star Wars Racer (of course) and Diddy Kong Racing.
