Classic Game Room - NINTENDO 64 console review

[@SkullPrism]

I remember watching this channel as a little kid and then becoming OBSESSED with older consoles! Lol

[@someguy9070]

Me too my friend, this channel and AVGN really got me into retro gaming, I love it so much. These videos take me back to a simpler time in life.

[@Mobik_]

Damn I miss this channel so much

[@NintendoGamer-ow9ul]

The Nintendo 64 was and still is an awesome console, I remember getting this on Christmas of 1998. The first two games I ever own was Pokemon Stadium 1 and The Legend Of Zelda : Ocarina Of Time. It's my favorite console of all time. :)

[@sebadcabre]

I have to agree , easily one of the best consoles ever IMO. Unfortunately I had no chance to have it when it came out , but I recently bought it just to play those legendary plataformers (the Banjos ,CBFD ,DK, Super Mario, etc).

[@NintendoGamer-ow9ul]

Cool. There great games.

[@hs-hh9sz]

DK, Goldeneye and SF64 are my favs.

[@jessesaillard2423]

[@SomeGuyWhoPlaysGames333]

I wish I had grown up with this system instead of being born the same year it was released. Oh well, I'm collecting old systems now. I have a red transparent N64 and about 10 games now.

[@PrepGuy64]

"Not the most attractive console." I... I actually think it looks kinda cool.

[@MarkManuel15]

TacoSpy Call me weird but I think the GameCube is Nintendo's best looking console... I'm not joking, the little discs, the bad-ass controller, the game cases, and the odd-looking cube are just real attractive to my eyes.

[@PrepGuy64]

Mark Manuel The GameCube kicks ass!

[@rfp415]

Exactly..its the most sleek looking console ever imo idk wtf he's talking about haha.

[@bundeewaje790]

+Mark Manuel gamecube hands down has the best controller feel ever imo

[@bundeewaje790]

buy a 1st gen wii instead unless you dont want that whole library of games. or if you want to get the gba to ngc adapter, which is only compatible with an original ngc. the original wii has a gamecube system built in pretty much. wii's have 4 controller ports for ngc and 2 memory card slots like the original ngc. the only thing you'll need is 1(4) ngc controllers and some memory cards and youre set, just buy games. plus wii's and ngc are pretty much the same price depending on where you look. ive seen both around 50 and below.

[@augustcelineiii946]

The N64 is amazing. Probably the best console I will ever own, but that's also the nostalgia talking.

[@barebarekun161]

+August Celine III I surprisingly liked the N64 being completely skipped the console purely because of Financial reason and I'm basically too young to own more than one console per generation at the time. (owned a PS1 obviously) One thing N64 really trounced PS1 was its reliability I gone through 3 PS1 for the past 10+ years yet an N64 I bought last year probably 19 year old system still works flawlessly. The only thing that prevents me from enjoy N64 to the fullest unfortunately was the controller it was pretty fragile,quite ironic since the console was/is rock solid reliable. Very friendly console for collectors,and just retro gaming appreciators like me.

[@Dexter649]

I was elementary when I watched this video and I always enjoyed this KZbin channel.

[@-TheCrasher-]

I feel old when I say I grew up with these consoles.

[@TheHistorianKing]

[@lurkerrekrul]

You think that makes you feel old? Home video games didn't even exist until I was about 8 or 9!

[@ExplosiveGaming03]

[@blakespower]

Yeah well 1996 was like yesterday to me! I remember playing Digital Football handhelds before videogame systems became affordable

[@MegaMark0000]

You make people whos first console came out before the N64 feel even older when you say that.

[@alexojideagu]

The N64 was not outdated, it was incredibly powerful for its time. 93MHZ processor which was the same as a mid level Pentium Processor. The Playstation was only about 30mhz.

[@LuigiGodzillaGirl]

I was a late bloomer, but I remember the N64's later years fondly. I was unable to get one until a year or so after it was discontinued, but I never regretted my purchase. I spent hours with Mario Kart 64 and Super Smash Bros. My Brother-in-law lent me Ocarina of Time, and I've been a Zelda fan ever since. And my N64 still works, though it's not overly fond of newer TVs.

[@MarcosLopez-ox2xd]

While everyone was asking for PlayStation 4 and Xbox ones for Christmas I asked for a Nintendo 64

[@rogertherobloxian1624]

Marcos Lopez and I asked for a Sega Genesis and an N64

I wish I would've known. I would've prepared a eulogy...so sad... :'(

[@TheHistorianKing]

damn that sucks.

[@clutchkman]

That's why you should never let anyone borrow anything; especially consoles. I learned this the hard way too, but by using this Scroogelike philosophy I still have all my consoles and games from Nintendo to the Wii and PS3, with the Segas in between. I had to rebuy my N64, but fortunately it was cheap, but the games have held their value well. Ouch!

[@betorockmetal]

N64 was my first console. Not the first I played but the first I owned.

[@FunGuy2001]

2:07 When you were mentioning that it uses the same AV cables as the Super Nintendo you forgot to also mention the GameCube because the AV out on the Super Nintendo would also be later reused on the Nintendo 64 and the GameCube. So all three of them can use the same cables.

[@Ben_Bourrie]

Well, the 6th generation consoles did some things better than their competitors. Playstation 2 was always better with simulation games, GameCube was a powerhouse with multiplayer and 1st party, Dreamcast had amazing fantasy and arcade games and Xbox was amazing with scifi games and a bit of simulation, also well known for its first person shooters. Console design, they couldn't be more different, I think in the 7th generation, it was only the Wii that really stood out, the Xbox 360 and PS3 kinda did the same thing.

[@drjoshfox]

it's sort of the same these days with the wii u's oddball controller *i do like the wii u gamepad btw* and exclusive titles.

[@sullivans2004]

[@Meowblivion]

DAMN I MISS CARTRIDGE GAMING it was so much easier to handle. It was as if you couldn't break it or nothing. THESE WERE THE DAYS!!!!!! I hate how CDs are so delicate now. Bullshit.

[@TheTroller911]

but dvds and cd roms hold WAY more memory than a cartride

[@Meowblivion]

David Garcia but they're so delicate and they would get scratched up so easily and its a pain in the ass to handle.

[@GameSlimia1]

The n64 cartridges were big. But can't hold lots of data. Nintendo 3ds cartridges can hold up to 8 gb of memory and is smaller. SD card isn't a cartridge but it is way smaller than the Nintendo 3DS and holds ALOT More. A MICRO SD Card is EVEN smaller than the sad card and can hold more than the regular sad card

[@GameSlimia1]

So I guess the lesson is the smaller the better?

[@TheTroller911]

GameSlimia at least we have digital copys

[@ImaFnT-Rex]

one thing i always liked about the N64 back in them days was it was easier on my eyes when it came to 3D games the other systems when it came to 3D games had sharp colored blocks which annoyed me .. the N64 smoothed those out

I like the GameCube better, only because it has more games and better sound, graphics, and a better controller than the N64. The N64 is great though, just not great as the gamecube was in my opinion.

The ps2 and xbox were mine,still have them today! They work flawlessely even if they have taken some abuse especially the ps2(parents and the dog tripping over controller cables) they still work.Simply amazing consoles.Even tho i have never touched an n64, the emulators were great.

[@NefariousDreary]

Both great consoles. I didn't even know they were still making games for the Dreamcast! Great review. I love the last line lol

[@mr_beezlebub3985]

Actually, the N64 was discontinued in 2002 in Japan and 2003 everywhere else.

[@PikaLink91]

It funny how when he placed the N64 and the Panasonic beside each other, I immediately thought to myself "the Panasonic doesn't work, does it?", and it turned out it didn't xD On the same note, if I go to a garage sale (for lack of better word), and I see a Panasonic or Philips CD-I, I immediately become skeptic and assume the sh*t doesn't work, however, if I see an N64, SNES, or NES for that matter, I automatically assume that they are still in working order--- I dunno, maybe it's because they are cartridge based that I think that way.

[@zephiel123]

Or the fact that the NES, SNES and N64 have a better build quality than the CD-I ? haha

[@PikaLink91]

Perhaps :-) I think that was the point I was trying to make^^'

[@zephiel123]

PikaLink91 Even the GameCube has a better build quality than most disc based systems (though i have heard some earlier models suffered from hardware issues. Luckily, mine hasnt yet. But i do have a newer model for backup.) PS1 probably had it the worst though. You literally have to turn the damn thing with the disc side facing down so it will spin properly. Great console..cheap design :/

[@drearaujoa6]

well anything with a disc has more internal moving parts. and laser that read the disc deff dosent last forever...

[@proud90skid15]

No S Sherlock

[@campkemp9466]

I really loved this channel ❤

[@slavathecar]

3:30 it does not have a massive library, only about 200-240 games, much less than other systems of both that time and generally

[@bah-bammmm4516]

its not like we try to get all the games.

[@thelegendaryhylianmusic9271]

It also has LEGEND OF ZELDA MAJORAS MASK(AKA BEN

[@SimonvCleef]

It's not about the quantity... but the quality of the games matter! I both had the PS1 and the N64 and they both have the same amount of GOOD games, if you skip all the bad/weak games. I had fun with both consoles at the time, but I think the N64 was clearly superior because it brought a lot of new things to the table.

[@slavathecar]

The reason N64 was not nearly as succesful as the PS1 was because it refused the move with the times, the things that made it bad then make it good now ironically but still I just pointed out that it didn't have much games and many people even try to collect the whole library, I know that the ones that were were great but that's not what I meant, I didn't say anything about the quality of the games but their quantity because that was the topic of converaation

[@SimonvCleef]

Slavko Gelo I understand what you say and i respect your opinion. But still the N64 didn't have so few games after all. And some games you could play for weeks/months and didn't get bored with. Still part of quantity has to be quality based (or how long you can play a single game). For example do you know ho much games were released on the first atari (even before the nes system)? They were releasing does games like madness. :P But very few were good. Same thing can be said for the complete ps1 library. Overall it would be kind of disappointing, but if you only look at the good ones or the games that are still oke, than it would break even with the N64. Also you mentioned success... it's kind of hard to decide which one was more successful. You would've to ask yourself if total sales of the console is enough or that you've to look in retrospect which console made more impact on gaming overall. Like you said the N64 had a lot of things keeping it back from becoming a super selling machine. It was expensive, the games were always a lot more expensive (some even 80-90 euro's... euro weren't there yet but i recount it in euro's), the library was indeed a lot smaller than the ps1 library (almost every console has a smaller library than the ps1... i think) and one of the most important things: the ps1 or playstation could easily be hard modded. It was one of the first consoles everybody (or at least a lot of people/casual gamers) hard modded back in the days. It's the same with the success of the wii. Part of it is that it attracted casual gamers, but I think a bigger part of it was because it's one of the easiest consoles to softmod and that it was dirt cheap so low risk. If you can mod a console... and be able to have a lot of games for it... it's way more interesting than a console that is nearly impossible to hard/softmod and that has games that are very expensive like the N64. I know... I know the N64 also can have an add-on and is able to play copied games. But nobody had such a thing at that time. Sorry if my answer became a bit long... but i wanted to explain that success is something hard to measure. Same thing can be said for the DS btw...

[@BLThackrey]

I remember the day this was released ... My local independent game shop rented these out for £20 for 3 days .. Including 5 games , 2 controllers and delivery/ pick up. I also remember spending the entire weekend playing Goldeneye at my best friends house .... His mum said we smelt like Onions ...LOL classic

[@larryistall]

Born in 93 as well. I didn't get into gaming until around 2002 so I got a gamecube. Never had a N64 and actually played it yesterday for the very first time. Thinking about getting one very soon.

[@xXRenaxChanXx]

The biggest downfalls were the 4kb Texture memory, high-latency rambus memory, and shoddy control-stick that breaks more often than the original 360 Red Ringed.

[@TomMezzie]

you can buy a controller with a normal gamecube like control stick just look it up.

[@xXRenaxChanXx]

Yes. but they're both expensive and overly-sensitive making playing games that require the control-stick pretty much impossible.

[@TomMezzie]

i don't consider $2 expensive

[@xXRenaxChanXx]

2$ where? Last I checked they were 500$ a pop.

They we're trying to get me jealous because I didn'y have the PS2 yet and I was talking about all the brilliant games I had for it and they just laughted and I was like 'Shut your tits, come round and play it' Okay I didn't say tits but you get the idea. We played Goldeneye, Mario 64, Perfect Dark, 1080 and Majora's Mask and his hands were glued to the controller, he couldn't put it down he was that addicted to the games. Not so shitty now is it? Bunch of jerks.

I'm working to get this console in my collection, Wish me luck!

Does anyone know the music Mark is using throughout the review?

[@stickman2012]

at 5:00 I couldn't agree with you more. I'd hope to see more of that in the future.

I never knew the Nintendo 64 had memory cards that could be plugged into the controller. However, I did know that you could plug in a rumble pack into the controller and I have one and I also have a transfer adapter that plugs into the controller that allows for the use of GameBoy games in the Nintendo 64(I never could figure out how to use it though. Maybe you might know how to use it and know what games it works with.). I like the N64 for a lot of the same reasons you do. It is very simple, trusty, reliable, and has easy to learn controls. Since it is cartridge based, there are no mechanical moving parts to fail and no CDs to get scratched. The problem with all the disc-based gaming systems is that the CDs scratch so easily, game cartridges however, provide you with reliable gaming and don't scratch at all. Video games in the form of a cartridge are really made to last for years without trouble. The gaming systems they have nowadays I don't like. They have very complicated controls that are difficult to learn and a lot of the game titles for them seem ridiculous and they are all the same( First-person shooter) I really like your videos by the way. They are very professional in appearance.

Couldn't of said it any better. New days suck, Old days are GOLDEN. Long live the 90's

[@TheMichaelRock]

And both my Mega Drive (sega genesis in the US, it seems) and my original PS still work today. The PS3 and XBox 360 always seem to have a lifespan of 3-5 years without requiring fixing or maintenance

[@jonathonrossebo1783]

***** I couldn't agree anymore. Back in the day in the 90's videogame producers were very original in creating new videogames.

[@MrRebelutionary]

***** Hell, then just buy one. The games are just as good now as they were then. Nothing has changed.

[@TheMichaelRock]

MrRebelutionary Correction, game design has deteorated while graphics had an amazing leap in quality. Still, I prefer good game design

[@OxygenDiffusion]

Great vid btw my game catrige says Lylat war not starfox Is your newer or is ther another reason?

[@UltChimi]

I think you can use it as a gamecube av cable, too.

[@0pTic4lZagg3]

Will UK Pal-games work on a Northern Europe (Finland)-console? I have been thinking about getting a N64 from Germany, and getting the games from UK....

[@mbsfaridi]

4:49 What is the EXT at bottom of the console?

[@theknightswhosayfrak]

Help me. My N64 won't read some of my games. I turn the console on and it works except the Game is not displayed on my TV. It only works with 3 of my games. All of my games are cleaned. Only Ocharina of Time Starfox and Mario Tennis Work. Sometimes I have to jiggle the AC adapter to make them work though. Could it be the AC adapter?

[@mbsfaridi]

So you can enter a cartridge there,underneath the console?

[@szymonbojarczuk7491]

I got one this Christmas+ Banjo Kazooie!!!

[@BenJabituya]

I still got my Nintendo 64 since Christmas Eve, 1997. I got GoldenEye 007 on Christmas Day. GoldenEye 007 is dear to my heart, but I didn't get a Mario game for it. It felt like going to a Disney theme park without Mickey being there. I eventually got Super Mario 64, after the system's demise.

[@MetalBacon64]

N64 is my favorite console, still have my first one.

[@davemustang8173]

I miss my childhood. CGR, AVGN, Screwattack, GT Countdown it'll never be the same

[@1andonlymacphreak]

[@oscarortega866]

[@keinonahkatakki]

[@MultiDean98]

[@KapteinSaftblander]

When i by a Nintendo 64, do i only need the console and controller (and games), or do i need memory card and other tings?? Help!! :(

[@Ryenobal]

Loved the N64..Easily among my favorite consoles ever along with the Super NES & Xbox 360. I always preferred the durability of cartridges over discs.
