pika62221's Full Review: Nintendo 64 Black Console
So many people have forgotten that this cartridge based first true 64-bit powerhouse was Nintendo's loss of prowess. This was the system so many people left, and went over to their Sony competition. Many have and still play their NES and SNES, while only 1/2 to 2/3 of those who owned either of those systems owned a Nintendo64. Remember, there is no space between Nintendo and the 64! This system was amazing, technologically speaking! Nearly 2x as powerful as Sony's Playstation and Sega's Saturn, the Nintendo64 was the FIRST system to usher in 64-bit 3D platform gaming with Super Mario 64- this one does have the space in between! While people deemed cartridge obsolete by 1996, Nintendo went on and produced those hard to copy game paks. This was THE system that got me hooked back onto Nintendo, and to this day I'll never leave them again!
