Nintendo N64 Reviews

Ok, we don't actually own a N64, but have borrowed it and 2 games from a friend for a couple of weeks, so if you disagree with me, I do apologise! :) The N64 is compared with the Playstation (which we do own), and I can see why, the graphics and quality of the games are extremely similar, but I do not know if I would swap one for the ...  Read the complete review

Yes, the Dreamcast has better graphics and the Playstation has 100x as many games, but N64 offers the only cartridge system out there. But how may people get fed up of waiting for the CD based systems to load? CD based game also, obviously cant have built in batteries like the N64’s games, so data like fastest lap times have to be ...  Read the complete review

I bought 1080 as soon is it came it for the pricely sum of £40. I got home and messed about on it for while just get used to the controls and the different tricks. Once i'd built up a bit of confidence in my ability to stay upright after a jump or dodgy corner i decided it was time to try and 'unlock' the other courses, which took all ...  Read the complete review

The N64s limited success can be explained in one word, Goldeneye. This was the factor for me when deciding between this and the playstation. Goldeneye marked a new level in console gaming that has taken years to surpass, sadly Nintendo never built on the success of this game leaving the N64 to soon languish in the shadows of the playstation. ...  Read the complete review

The N64 really has died a death. As a console, I still believe that the N64 has one over on the playstation. It has better graphics by a mile. There are four controller ports, so there is no need for cumbersome, tangle-prone tap points, and there is more memory, and you don't need a memory card to save things. Also, you don't have ...  Read the complete review

While in a recent review I was singing the praises of the Playstation and how it had stood the test of time very well, the same thing cannot be said for the N64. Unfortunately, this was always destined to fail, and apart from the ridiculous number of Pokemon games being released, it has very little new to offer. Games on Cartridge always meant ...  Read the complete review

Games are too expensive (down side of cartridges), graphics are looking dated. There are only a select core of dedicated developers who produce decent games (which are all beginning to look the same anyway), further more their progress is being stifled by the stringent contracts they have signed mith Nintendo, and Nintendo's maniacal desire ...  Read the complete review

When I first got this console, I was impressed. The first game I got with this console is Mario64, my first thought was the graphics on this machine is amazing. I was amazed on how they got these graphics on the cartiage based machine. Because the Sony playstation and Sega saturn both used Cd's and the graphics on that console was very ...  Read the complete review

The nintendo console is an extremely good buy for the amount of cash required, i mean you can pick one of thes up foraround about £40. The games are varied and cater for a lot of tastes. It has Quake 1 and 2 for first person fans the great game goldeneye and perfect dark and also the likes of some great classics such as mario kart 64. The console ...  Read the complete review

i firts bought my n64 about 1 year and a 1/2 ago and i thought that it was very good but the games were too exspensive to buy so i only bought a few games for the console. Now i find thta i can afford to buy a few games there are no decent ones on the machine as other consoles have come out and much bettter tha the n64 in all the areas. I als o ...  Read the complete review

I am a proud owner of a Nintendo 64!, although they are out of date now I still believe certain games available for it beat all others!, such as Golden eye, this games is absolutely brilliant and becomes addictive, especially if you have more than one control pad and play multiplayer with a friend!, the only thing I don’t particularly like ...  Read the complete review

This console was state of the art only a few years ago! it remains a firm favourite among nintendo fans although has been surpassed by more recent consoles which have more advanced game play. I own a N64 console myself and have done so for about three years. many of their games have remained unsurpassed in terms of game play eg. goldeneye and ISS. ...  Read the complete review

Many people would think of golf games as boring and pointless unless you're a regular player of golf. That's what I thought before I bought it. Maybe some golf games are dull, but not this one.There is so much to do, and it's not too easy or not too hard, easy to pick up on.There are a multitude of characters, and courses, and so many ...  Read the complete review

Have you noticed how the N64’s price of games is ridiculously high. I mean come on; there is so much competition with console out there if you look at it. The Dreamcast, Playstation and the new PS2. It would make so much more sense for Nintendo to lower the prices of the games, as no one is willing to purchase so much for 1 game. ...  Read the complete review

This has always been a good 64 bit machine with good graphics and decent games. The only drawback used to be the expensive cartridges, however, everyone now wants a Dreamcast or Playstation 2 so there are loads of N64's and Cartridges on the secondhand market, the games are easy to test, if they load they are going to probably be ok if the ...  Read the complete review

Ok, so the Nintendo 64 never grasped the publics attention in the same way as the PlayStation did, and now it seems as though the 64 bit purely for games machine is on it’s last legs, with very few releases arriving, but I do recommend this machine to you if you can pick one up for the right price. Let there be no mistake – there are ...  Read the complete review

OK, so the N64 is a great console in many people's eyes but I do not think that Nintendo aim the console at adults - it is by far the most child based console around, and although it has such classics like Perfect Dark and Goldeneye, it really doesn't have many serious games. Just take a look at how many Mario orientated ...  Read the complete review

I got my N64 very soon after they first came out, so I was one of those people who paid a lot of money for it. Even so I was very happy with my purchase then, and still am happy with it now. The entire setup is just brilliant. The controlers are the best I have seen for any console or computer. You`ve got the analogue stick, the D-pad ...  Read the complete review

The N64 is good; there are lots of expensive games to tempt us into playing the N64. There is however one flaw in the N64. The games are too easy, and the longevity of the games is very short. The most difficult games can only take a matter of days to complete and are often orientated at the kids below 12. I have found the only N64 games ...  Read the complete review

Whenever I'm looking for a great game I play Wrestlemania 2000 for the N64. Whenever I'm looking for another game I play WM2k, in fact, whenever I do not know what to play I go for WM2k! The graphics are top-notch as are the great wrestling entrances and previously untested Tirantron videos, but it is the unlimited gameplay and ...  Read the complete review
