Hello, this is the N64 thread. This is where you post anything N64 related weather it be games, hardware, attachments, memories, or anything else you can think of. Also if anyone thinks that this shouldn't exist feel free to ask me to delete it or just do it yourself if you can, *looks at moderators*, so yeah I guess I'll start:
Right now I'm playing Zelda OoT, well more of speed running it, It's just "practice" but so far I am right before I wrong warp to Ganon's death and I am 14 minutes in. That's pretty good for me at least. And yes, I had to loo up all of the glitches.

It's by far my favorite console. Finally starting up Hybrid Heaven, it's got some pretty interesting RPG elements but the story is unintentionally hilarious.
I didn't know you could glitch the game that bad. I remember the first time I played it, I was renting it and I didn't like playing in the Deku Tree so I kept running towards that "one squatting guy" and I glitched through him and started just roaming around the world. Could never get it to do it again.

My ps1 lasted until about 3 years after the ps2 was announced, which we had transitioned to it was convenient.

Love me some Mischief Makers. That was my favorite game right up there with Ocarina of Time and Mario 64.

I remember Strider 2 was supposed to come out for N64 and never did. Probably would have been the best home version since, even though it had a lot of animation frames, the backgrounds were polygonal and there wouldn't have been any load times on the cartridge.
They probably canned it because it would have been a hard sell at cart prices, when the disc version retailed at $29.99.
Bangai-O (one of Treasure's games)... I always wanted to play that game, but the N64 version never released in the US. I got it on the Dreamcast years later, but from what I read the play mechanics were changed and now the immensity of your missile/laser blast was based on the proximity of enemy/bullets to your robot when you release your super attack.
I bet it played pretty well on the N64 controller too, because it was about shooting directionally with the face buttons and Treasure were experts at taking advantage of whatever platform they developed a game on.

This was the era when colorful cartoony platform heroes were still all the rage. You know instead of brown and grey space marines we have today.

The N64 is such a pain to emulate at times, it seems. Such a shame because there were some good games on it, even if the library was pretty lacking. Also, I think there are some games that, now revisited, don't seem as good as I remember them to be... most notably Donkey Kong 64. I forgot how much backtracking you gotta do in that game...

You can't go wrong when it comes to the 64.
Unless it's Superman, than you can go very wrong, very fast.

My N64 doesn't want to work for some reason, or at least connect to the TV.
I tried setting it up a month ago, but it just died on me, and I couldn't. It still works and all, but it just doesn't output on the TV.
I only wanted to play Goldeneye.
