It’s mad how good they got games looking on the N64 hardware by the end of it’s life cycle compared to the start

[@MCastleberry1980]

N64 and GameCube both had a lot of dry spells between big releases during their lifetime, so yeah, once the new system came out, they really pulled the plug lol

[@Odinarcade00]

I think the worst for me was the ds launch yuck

[@taylorfrench6722]

Nintendo stopped putting out N64 games in North America in May 2001, 6 months before the GameCube came out. This was the first time Nintendo completely halted first party support within a year of the next system's release, but it wouldn't be the last. The GameCube only had five first party games come out after November 2005: Mario Strikers, Chibi-Robo, Odama, Baten Kaitos Origin, and Twilight Princess. With the exception of maybe Twilight Princess and Mario Strikers, none of these were necessarily big sellers. The last original first Wii game was Xenoblade in April 2012, with only a Pikmin 2 port and a Kirby collection coming out after it. And then there's the Wii U, which Nintendo pretty much wanted to abandon by the end of 2014.

[@Kyle07]

At least they released Super Mario Maker in 2015. I never had a Wii U, so Super Mario Maker 2 was a highly wanted title for me to buy a Nintendo Switch finally. I wonder if Nintendo ever made Mario Maker when the Wii U would be super successful.

[@parappatherapper4141]

Paper Mario Color Splash was released in 2016? I think. And BotW in 2017. It didn't receive the attention it deserved by the audience (due to bad marketing as we all know), but it doesn't mean Nintendo stopped investing time in it.

[@taylorfrench6722]

@@parappatherapper4141 Well yeah, they probably started developing Color Splash long before 2016, and we know for a fact that they started developing BOTW in at least 2013, probably 2012 or earlier. They weren't going to abandon years of development and millions of dollars just because their console was failing. And any games that they started developing for Wii U in 2015 or 2016 were shifted over to the Switch.

[@monumentvalley6681]

@@taylorfrench6722 It's true that most Wii U games were ported to the Switch, but to say that Nintendo gave up on the Wii U at the end of 2014 is incorrect. If that were the case, they would had paused development on all the games I mentioned in my previous comment so they could be released exclusively for the Switch.

[@EpicRyGuy]

I don't think it was a literal statement but an exaggeration on how poor the wii u was by the end of 2014

[@mattlewis8889]

GameCube was one of my favorite systems. Not just the games that were fun but the fact it was also nearly indestructible. I've never broken a GameCube controller, I still have the only 4 I've ever bought. The discs seemed to never scratch. The console was compact and easy to port around to a friend's house.

[@bananonymouslastname5693]

It's funny how NFL Blitz Special edition is the only one that actually release post-Gamecube in the US, even though the others were still new. That was right around the time I left FuncoLand, and I remembered having all but Blitz Special Edition in stock, but I knew I left right before the GC launch, so I had to double check those dates. The N64 was beyond dead long before 2001. Majora's Mask and Super Smash Bros were really the last games that customers cared about. The Dreamcast might not have been able to stand up to the PS2, but it sure helped put the N64 to rest. Game releases slowed to a crawl after the DC launch, and even though it's a system I have a lot of affection for, I remember the sentiment all of us at the store had at the time, which was that it was just a wasteland of racing games. When you cut out all of the racing, wrestling, amd sports games from the N64 library, it is shocking how little is left.

[@TBoneTony]

As soon as a Nintendo console is released, the previous system is often left out to be in retail for a few months in a quiet reminder of what we would loose when there is no backwards compatible.

[@Josuh]

the wii u is backwards compatible with everything nintendo though

[@TheWaveBloke]

If you did a PS4 or Xbox One version of this video, it would be hours long. It's amazing how much console generations overlap now.

[@elhehe8476]

It’s not that they overlap. It’s just that there was no need to release the “next generation” this early. The games aren’t even that innovative on a graphical aspect. Not to mention the only true gimmick they were able to sell was the SSD with faster loading times. Other than that. It’s hard to push the envelope with graphics. Which in my opinion really doesn’t validate the reason to buy a PS5 or Series X. Tell me are there really any games out there right now worth jumping ship? Maybe just Spider-Man 2 but other than that it’s been lackluster in the next generation.

[@admiralAlfonso9001]

@@elhehe8476 I agree, so far the new Ratchet and Clank is the only game on PS5 that either is a remake of an older game, also released on PS4, or also released on PC. Some upcoming games for PS5 that I hope will stay exclusive are Sword of the Sea, Final Fantasy 16, Spider Man 2, and Metal Gear Delta although I would rather just play the original game on an older PlayStation.

[@AgsmaJustAgsma]

You're not wrong. The last PS2 game ever officially released was PES 2014, in November of 2013, just days before the launch of the PS4.

[@KopperNeoman]

@elhehe8476 That's not the reason. The reason is that the Series and PS5 are just more powerful versions of the Xbone and PS4. Better CPUs and faster internal storage. The system architecture is identical, to the point where the Xbone's Durango SDK has Scarlett support. Incidentally, only Scarlett SDK games have storage restrictions.

[@roberthartley4372]

the gamecube is a console that i played with my brother in law, i had a orange one with a gameboy player. when my brother in law passed away with covid i couldnt play that console anymore. i loved the N64 lots of good games on that console.

[@kintozero3169]

November 2001. I saw videos online of this awesome new 3D Treasure N64 game called Sin & Punishment. I was practically drooling. I ordered an import copy, and turns out US N64s have these plastic bits blocking Japanese carts from playing. I didn't have a security bit to open my N64, but read online about someone who melted the plastic bits (clamp open cart slot & carefully melt with soldering iron) to mod their N64. So I did the same thing & it worked!!! I don't have my N64 any more but I still have my Sin & Punishment complete in box. It wound up being an absolutely fantastic game, and we finally got it released on the Virtual Console on Wii, and later on the Switch N64 download service.

Funny thing about "Powerpuff Girls: Chemical X-Traction, is that it actually hit the N64 just ONE day after the GameCube's North American launch.

[@AlexRN]

Being an N64 only gamer during its last year before the Gamecube must’ve been a miserable experience second only to the Saturn (which had zero games come out for it in NA for the entire of 1999 and most of 98 until the Dreamcast came out). Fortunately for me I had jumped into de PS1 bandwagon by Christmas of 1999. The amount of games available for it compared to N64 were too big to ignore.

Lacking compared to newer console version yes. I was one of the few who had a PS1 and N64 and preferred playing the n64 versions because they seemed smoother and I only wanted to bring one system to friend's houses anyway, the n64 was the 4-player machine with so many other fun multiplayer games. So, always played the n64 versions and still like them.

all of the tony hawks were good on the n64. i have the ps1 versions of all the games as well and honestly, people make a big deal out of not having the full music soundtrack on the n64 but I don't even notice, with the game running smoother, I'm too busy playing the game to notice what songs it's missing.

To be fair, very few N64 games were released before the GameCube.

[@seankkg]

GameCube was the last Nintendo console that actually competed with the other consoles on the market. I miss that...

[@StevenMorris]

Or japan which the dreamcast games continue to developed up until the wii era.

[@-Down-D-Stairs-]

Dreamcast was discontinued in early 2001 though so it wasn't around in November 2001

[@NewGabeOrder]

Even so, games like Sonic Adventure 2 and Capcom vs. SNK 2 kept coming out for said system. Though Sega ceased production of the Dreamcast hardware in March 2001, games continued to be released until 2007. Sega stopped making Dreamcast games themselves after Puyo Pop Fever, while Milestone's Karous became the be-all end-all of officially licensed Dreamcast games.

[@JMFSpike]

I remember being a bit sad that their were so ridiculously few N64 releases after the GameCube came out. The NES had a small handful of good games after the SNES' release, and the SNES had at least one or two good games after N64's release, but the N64 wasn't so lucky. THPS 3 is the only one that's really notable, but by the time it was released (in the back half of 2003 believe it or not) there were very few people still interested in buying N64 games. N64 was really quite the oddity. Weird controller, bizarre game format choice for 1996, and very limited amount of games compared to pretty much every other successful game console ever. Still, it was an excellent console overall because *most* of the games on it were decent at the very worst. There were a surprisingly small amount of garbage games on it. The only thing that really hurt it in terms of the game library is a severe lack of RPG's. (By the way, Zelda, Harvest Moon, Hercules, and Mega Man 64 don't count, although that last one does come super duper close. The Pokemon Stadium games do halfway count, but those are more like expansions to the Game Boy games. On their own (without the Game Boy games and transfer pak) there isn't much there. So that leaves you with about 6 RPG's on the console, and half of those are trash.)

[@danielespeziari5545]

At each generation the amount of games released for the previous system reduced, and it's unfortunate for those who couldn't afford the new console or were happy enough with the old one

[@NateB1976]

Had no idea the Razor scooter game was on N64! I picked that game up for the PlayStation in the $5 bin at Walmart. I use to babysit my nephews a lot back in the day and they both rode scooters so we wore that game out back then. Plus the controls and tricks were basically identical to the Tony Hawk games which we had been playing for a while anyway. Talk about memories!!!

A LOT of people either picked up skating because of Bam or got harder into it because of him. When I was a kid on the early 2000s, vert skaters in general were not considered cool. We had a sponsored skater in our neighbourhood who rode Element because of Bam, and the things he could casually do were insane. Caught him leaving his house once and he did a Kickflip to manual down an incline without spilling his drink and COMPLETED HIS TURN before putting the front wheels down. That was the day I gave up on skating 😂💀
