Advantages: Goodish Graphics

Disadvantages: TOO CHILDISH

In my opinion the N64 has far too many 'baby' games. Games like donky kong and mario, they may be good platformers but they are babyish to me. It doesn't have any really good driving games, unlike the playstation and all other consoles (even PC). I don't like the controller either it's too big, how do they expect a young child to be able to hold (which most of it's games are aimed at).

OK it does have a couple of good games, like Goldeneye and Perfect Dark, but there aren't that many of them. If the publishers would make more grown up games that use the power of this console i think it would have been far more successful.

It does have a couple of good arcade racing games like Mario Kart 64, but it can't live on just these 4 games. Can it?

I have played Perfect Dark which is a good game, but if the console had more games like it and more variety in the games I might have considered buying them.

I really hope that their 'next generation console' doesn't fall into this trap. I really do, because they have the technology to make a good console, all they need is games that appeal to a wider market!

DooYoo agree?

Games like Perfect Dark seem good, till you play Quake 3 and Unreal Tournament on the PC.....then you realise how poor N64 multiplayer is.
