N64 or Gamecube???

i like the N64 better just because of Blitz alone.. that game was tremendously badass not to mention perfect dark pretty much set the standard for FPS profile stat tracking/leveling... also NBA Hangtime which was also a blast to co-op with a friend.. Killer Instinct Gold.. Mario Golf/Tennis all good.. and i never owned a gamecube but they were great too when i got to play one

 

I will have to say the Gamecube. I really like the system itself and it also has Oot on it which makes it even better

 

Oh yeah... I forgot about the extra disc that came with some copies of Wind Waker...
That screws up my evaluation of the quality of games for the two consoles quite a lot : /
I played OoT about 2/3 of the way through on GC before getting bored. I never played MM on GC, but a quick Google tells me it was full of glitches and possibly a few save problems; so maybe that was for the best. I'm tempted to go with the Gamecube now; but MM was too good... I'll stick with the Nintendo 64.

 

Everyone in the US who pre-ordered WW got the master quest bonus disc

 

And the first...what 100 people who bought it in Australia got it as well.

I had to buy my copy from ebay...sure I had one from eb for $22 (just he bonus disc) but..I like originality



*Sigh* since my opinion is deemed invalid, I'll choose n64.


Countless classics compared to the gamecube, sure gc has re4, but I still reckon mario kart 64 was the best.

 

There was also a certain time where if you bought a GC, you'd get the Master Quest Disc. I had one when I got a GC.

 

No, that was the "collector's edition" (which I own), also had majora's mask, the original zelda, as well as orcarina of time.


Plus a wind walker demo, at least that's the Australian promotion (the only way to get said disc here when it first came out)

 

Oooh, it also has Zelda 2.

 

I didn't have either.

I play them both now through emulation and i have to say gamecube is the best

 

Oh yeah...I forgot...

And I know why, I didn't like that 2-D rpg thing...reminds me of another NES game I had...the battle for Olympias I think?


Same think, hack slash, travel world, etc...still if I found it in real life I'd buy it, it's rare.

 

Thats how I got mine as well. To tell you the truth my very first system was the Gamecube. I did not even know Oot even existed until I got it with my gamecube x_x. I started playing it when I was around 12? I think? Well I could only beat the first 3 bosses cause I was SUPER FREAKED by the redead. So I was never able to get out of the castle when I was old link. But I was eventually able to beat the whole game and MM as well.

 

You beat MM on that collection? From my recollection, it was buggy and froze a lot.

 

Yeah I did. I did not experience any bugginess at all. It worked perfectly for me and never froze.

 

N64 it has the best games of all time

(and the game i was begging santa for cough cough donky kong 64 or Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie since you can buy them in a game pack for the same price and i got Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie but with the money i got from my gran and gramp i got dk 64 and i love them oh and i got the dk n64 and i still play it today but i have like 20 games and you can buy em at game traders well games that is)

 

quite true, banjo-kazooie was easy one of the best platformers of all time.. and play & trade is a good source if you ever want any older gen games .. they even carry atari games but are discontinuing the sale of PC games for some stupid reason..

 

i actually saw crysis on discount for $15 new and right next to it the diablo II battle chest still running strong for $50.

 

Why is everyone choosing N64? GC is the obvious choice.

 

I like the N64

but the gamecube is 124-bit and the N-64 64-bit.
So the graphics of the gamecube are more beautifull (like mario sunshine, windwaker, twilight princess,...)

but I prefer the N64 with his awesome games (OOT, MM, Super smash brother, super mario 64, ...)

I completed OOT in 6 months ,
those epic games will not be made anymore (completed spirit tracks in a week).
