Summed it up very nicely.
he did, and I think it's a big part of why I'm not an N64 fan. 3D platformers are not my thing, and for the most part neither are party games.

I lump those in with party games/multiplayer.

I have to agree. As much as I love Paper Mario, you really can't compare that single game to the mountains of RPGs on the ps1.

If that's the case, the N64 is worth about 3 cents.

are you sure you understand what this phrase means? Because I'm pretty sure you're attempting to say the exact opposite of what you're saying.

hahaha are you serious? It's not grammar. He's using an expression completely wrong. It's kind of like what you were saying about people who say "I ain't go no money" when they mean "I have no money" but they're actually saying the opposite. Same thing. He's trying to say the N64 has no shmups, but "dime a dozen" means plentiful.
