Unlock the Power of the Nintendo 64 console

game nintendo 64Darren James

The Nintendo 64 was a groundbreaking force in the gaming world, with its 3D graphics and analogue control sticks paving the way for others to follow. This console contained an impressive library of over 300 games, which set it apart from earlier consoles. Many classics were created, such as Super Mario 64, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time, GoldenEye 007 or Star Fox, all powered by the powerful processor compared to their 32-bit successor’s processors. Truely speaking the N64 console competed with the original Sony PlayStation and the Sega Saturn, both of which could produce stunning 3D graphics. Some swear the PS1 was better, and technically it probably was, but the games are what sell a system and not the specs.
