I really don't like the N64. I don't think it's a great system but I also don't think it's terrible. It's just... mmmeh.

I think the N64 as a system has much room for improvement. The library on the other hand is a treasure trove of gameplay gems. Too many classics, so many great multiplayer games…
Still, I've played mine maybe twice over the last year, and my PSX gets used every day.

Anyone remember Glover?? I haven't seen it mentioned for the N64 here on this site, it must not have stood the test of time too well...

I remember at the time it was somewhat popular though...it kind of looked like a Mario 64 clone though...

I've never in my life, ever played a good wrestling game. That is down to personal opinion and experience though.

I can't even imagine how much time my friends and I put into WCW vs NWO Revenge.

For us it was WCW vs NWO World Tour. I'd run Saladin and just spam his Choke Hold into Submission. The computer fell for it every time (and so did a lot of my friends).

I have glover. It's fun. I think it stands up well today.

So true.

I would be in the camp that was sorely disappointed with the 64 came out. I loved the NES and SNES and I could only afford one system when this came out I hopped on it. Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Ocarina of Time, Goldeneye and Perfect Dark are about all I could see putting my time and money into. Also, hated the controller.

I'm getting back into this system soon, so I can try out the games I missed, I'll have to find a Hori mini that ppl keep mentioning.

Okay, I thought the game looked reasonably fun at the time, but I never see it mentioned anywhere so I assumed that perhaps there was some stigma tied to it. :lol:

Glover's pretty unique. It isn't much of a collection game like other platformers on the console. It mainly focuses around getting a ball to a goal.

wow really? I never actually played it, but I remembered it as more like Mario 64. That's interesting though.
