Nintendo N64 Reviews

I was never a Sony child when I was younger, I was always Sega and Nintendo and as a result I think that when it comes to gaming I am lot less fickle compared to most games reviewers. The Nintendo 64 did not boast realistic graphics, what is did boast was a large catalogue of fantastic games with rich and long story lines, rather than Sony's many ...  Read the complete review

The N64 was the last console to not use discs, and the sight of a cartridge sticking out the top of a console is long gone never to return. Yet a cartridge held excitement (and still) does: a cartridge could only mean school was over and gaming time was here! The main thing going for the N64 was the amazing Goldeneye, which me and some ...  Read the complete review

Probably my favourite console of all time. It introduced a whole range of classic games from Nintendo and was unlucky to lose out to the Sony Playstation in that generation of console wars. It was 64bit and cartridge based. The first console to offer four player gaming through direct pads to the console. There was even an expansion to ...  Read the complete review

So it doesn't have the graphics, sound, complexity, multi-buttoned faceted capacity of the 21st Century consoles - who cares? This device is a ground-braking piece of technology, with a rightful place in gaming history. The introduction of rumble-paks, 360 degree movement, 64-bit - this is where it all started. And this is where we saw the likes ...  Read the complete review

I first played the N64 many years ago when my friend got one. I has a playstation and she got a N64. We lived on the same street so we often went round to each others house. Now i loved playing the N64. She had some of the greatest games including Mario Kart, Mario 64, Banjo Kazooie and more and i loved them so much that several years later when ...  Read the complete review

I still remember the days of renting 'Theme Park' from Blockbuster to play on the SNES, or running into spikes sending Sonic and his coins flying everywhere during some Megadrive playtime. Gaming didn't begin to reach a level where I could accomplish anything until 1996, and at seven years of age I got the taster of the next generation of gaming. ...  Read the complete review

I've owned a N64 console now for nearly eight years, and it still works fine. I got mine as a Christmas present, and chose it over a new bike when I was told that it connected to your TV, and you didn't need a computer for it as I had thought. Nintendo 64 was first released on June 23rd 1996 in Japan, and it was released in Europe on ...  Read the complete review

You know that story, if your house was burning down, and you could only grab one thing? People say it would be their photos, home videos, jewelry, whatever...personally, it'd be my N64!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not even joking, dude...the N64 is one of the BEST game systems possible...it TOTALLY rules out the first Playstation and kix ...  Read the complete review

(I can't believe there is no category for the Nintendo Gamecube anywhere here. But hey, there you go. This is the nearest available category, and as always I promise to have the review moved once the relevant one becomes available. Apologies for doing this!) In the corner of my flat - sitting between the hulking great beastie that ...  Read the complete review

Whilst the Nintendo 64 is now a bit out dated with teh release of the next generation gaming consoles, such as PS2, Xbox and GameCube it is still a reliable little gaming box, especially if you don't really feel like forking out the 200 quid you would need for one. You can pick one up cheaply from around £30, now only at second hand ...  Read the complete review

its a tragic waste of a short life. the poor n64 teetering on the brink of obsoletion - wounded beyond repair in the war between itself and the playstation. i've never understood why the n64 did so badly in the popularity stakes. games such as zelda, rogue squadron, banjo-kazooie, banjo-tooie, goldeneye, perfect dark etc blew away anything ...  Read the complete review

Gamecube sucks, N64 Rules! - Advantages: Great games, Great graphics, N64 RULES! - Disadvantages: It's old

Well most people as it happens. But should you take a look? Prelude. I have owned the N64 ever since my Playstation broke 2 years ago. I was really into it and found the concepts in some of the games outstanding. Tenchu Stealth Assassin for example was fantastic. The gameplay was quite easy though and you got used to it ...  Read the complete review

The day I received my N64 which was sent from America by my uncle, I new that this day would be the best day ever. With the strange joysticks and the different games, I really liked this game. The games my uncle sent were great, he sent me Starfox 64 and Goldeneye 007. Starfox is a great game, you go out in your plane with your friends ...  Read the complete review

While entering its final days, Nintendo is letting its self do what playstation game developers have been doing (and are continuing on to th PS2) for many years which, is to but half arsed games together to make a bit of extra money before releasing the Gamecube. While the N64 in its hay-day was dady of all systems, and still is a far ...  Read the complete review

::::: My Story ::::: I decided to take a step back in gaming recently – I purchased an N64. I was once what some may call a “hardcore gamer”. I’ve had every console from the “Master System” up to the “Playstation 2” that I recently sold. You may be muttering madman, selling a ps2 ...  Read the complete review

The Nintendo 64 is, in my opinion the best console of all time. I am an avid nintendo fan and have owned and N64 for 4 years and have never stopped enjoying it. We have a gray version but it is also available in a range of funky colours to match your room. It is curvey and good looking. The 64DD drive which was unfortunatly not releaded in the UK ...  Read the complete review

This was supposed to be the 'new' console, the best of its time. the manufacturers promised hundreds of games to rival the array of games that the playstation owners had at their disposal. It promised graphics never seen before, and best of all, it promised that the games would be cheaper than that of its rivals. so lets see..... new ...  Read the complete review

The n634 certainly set a standard for Nintendo and to live up to it in the future. They gave out some new characters and genres thaqt ade the console da bomb. With games slike zelda OOT or donkey kong 64 it proved that quality beats quantity. They have set a standard in their gaming so can they relive their reputation? Surely the ...  Read the complete review

Its obvious that in terms of number sales the Playstation is the undisputed victor of this skirmish in the console wars. However, I bought a N64, and my two friends bought playstations and years down the line you would be interested in the results. I have played many Playstation games and my friends have played many N64 games and ...  Read the complete review
