A great system that had quite a few awesome games, like oot and Goldeneye. Unfortunatly, it suffred from many of the problems that come with the limitations of using Cartriges, such as a lack of any CD Audio (meaning they had to use MIDI, which is shitty)

The best video game thingy ever. Plus, if it stopped working, all you had to do was blow on the game and it magically worked again.
Kid-Nintendo 64 is retarded. I have Xbox, Xbox 360, Wii, PS, PS2, et cetera.
Me-So why would you get all those game systems and spend tons of money on them when you could just play Nintendo 64 and have just as much, if not more, fun?
Kid-So I can brag to all my friends. All I want is to fit in. **cries**

0niTTRay u suck cock. Nintendo 64 is the total opposite of what u say it is. It actually has the greatest and most addictive adventure games...Mario 64 was awsome and addictive, if you think jumping into paintings and collecting stars sucks, then u suck. Zelda Ocarina of Time was awwwsoooome 2, and its a bigger/longer game than Wind Waker, which is for Gamecube. Diddy Kong Racing is a unique 1, a racing game but adventure??? I was addicted 2 that game for weeks b4 i finished that. Glover was pretty good, but too hard, still never beat it after all these years. Goldeneye isnt really an adventure but it still 1 of the best especially with gameshark..helllz yea!

One of the best consoles I've ever owned. While it is true that there were a lack of good Third Party titles, the fact is that I never buy a Nintendo console for Third Party games.
Nintendo made their fans proud with this console. Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask were WONDERFUL, Goldeneye 007 and Perfect Dark were stunningly good, and Super Mario 64 just wouldn't stop for me. These few Nintendo games managed to last me until the PS2 and GameCube come out!
Let people say what they want, I love this console!

If only there was a true successor to Super Mario 64.
Unfortunately, Super Mario Sunshine is not it and I'm doubting Super Mario 128.

Nintendo's system made to compete with the Sony Playstation and SEGA Saturn. The 64 got it's name because it was 64 bit, unlike the PSX and Saturn which were 32 bit.
The 64 was the first console with an analog stick and the first console with a vibrating controller. However being a cartridge based system, it had inferior sound quality. But becuase it was a cartridge based system it was very reliable (Good luck finding a broken one.) Also cartridges have less space on them then CDs, so Nintendo lost alot of 3rd party support. Cartridges are expensive and companies didn't want to pay tons to put a huge game across multiple cartridges.
The 64 had smoother graphics then any other console that generation, though the colour palette had heaps of crappy oranges and such.
The 64's controller was revolutionary, but crap. The analog stick could be worn out quickly (If you want your controller to last stay away from Mario Party.) Also the c buttons were hard to reach.
Some popular 64 games are: Super Smash Bros, Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, F-Zero X, Mario Party, Mario Tennis, Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Perfect Dark, GoldenEye 007, Conker's Bad Fur Day and Lylatwars.

The Nintendo 64 was revolutionary, yet it had a crap controller and little 3rd party support. Overall, it has enough great games to warrant a purchase.
