i had to use my mouth to do it. i dont think any fighting game has forced me to hold the analog stick halfway between left and right for 30 seconds, but now that i think about it, they should

hey if you like the concept of holding an analog stick halfway in a direction, I have the music game for you
it’s called Cool Cool Toon and it was made by psychopaths for slightly more unhinged psychopaths and I think it’s neat

i only like holding it for thirty seconds with my mouth and only if it unlocks wireframe mode or has a SHADER SLIDER

it’s kind of necessary imo! the N64 games are basically kaizo if you only rent pokemon. i think for awhile some people thought it might be literally impossible to 100% pkmn stadium 1 or 2 with only rentals? could be misremembering lol
those fucking mario party reject minigames were so fun
GAME BOY TOWER was the greatest bonus feature of any N64 game probably, though having arcade Donkey Kong in DK64 and NES Excitebike in Excitebike 64 are also pretty slick bonuses

pokemon puzzle league!!! road rash 64!! you could hit guys with a banana! the best paperboy game was on n64! it’s a normal ass console with a normal ass amount of games that everyone was mad at for taking too long to come out and not using cds and that anger never ended

racing games really are where the n64 shined, even the Cruisin’ games. Shame about how terrible the controllers were

NEVER A PROBLEM WITH THE SUPER PAD 64 PLUS
i got the gold n64 controller bundle but gave it away immediately cuz i got this as a present from my nextdoor neighbor. the plastic part of the joypad came off leaving just a metal stick so i had to replace it once, but only once!

That is a good lookinng pad. I got into a stupid arguement with people nostalgica for the N64 over on tiktok and none of them had ever heard of the “magic dust” problem where mario party wears the plastic away in the stick or had ever had that problem and it boggled my mind.

Can’t believe Nintendo had such a smash hit even on their 64th console. Best in the biz!

racing games really benefitted from what the N64 could do. while it’s obvious that the prior gen wasn’t built for speed (SNES and Mega Drive were both capable of a decent racing experience when pushed to their respective hardware’s limits, or when utilizing enhancement chips, but 3D is pretty fundamental to higher-level executions imo) - even the PS1 and Saturn struggled with racing games. the N64’s built-in analog, texture filtering and anti-aliasing (crude as it was), and stable polygons were a good fit for the racing games of the time. racers on the PS1 and Saturn, while there are many and many great ones, usually looked way jankier (please compare Hydro Thunder or San Francisco Rush on PS1 vs. N64), and the lack of a console-wide analog solution out of the gate really, really hurt both consoles in the racing department.
