    I still play my 64 from time to time. It's the newest console I have, since my 3 ps2's took a crap.

    Ocarina of Time and Wrestlmania 2000 w/the create-a-wrestler are a couple of the best games I've ever played. Mario64 is pretty cool too.

    I don't want to end out on Tosh.0 :D

    I was literally running laps around the house and holding it like I was Mark Messeir with the Stanley Cup.

    FYI: Super Mario World is #1 on my all-time video game list.

    My son is turning into a nintendo nut. His new years resolution is to finish ALL the Zelda games. He's saving up now to buy an original NES just so he can play Zelda II.

    And yeah, the N64 was great. Spent a lot of time on Mario 64, Banjo-Kazooie, both Zeldas (Ocarnia and Majora's Mask) and Goldeneye.
    "You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.

    Yeah, it's news to me. It had Goldeneye!!! Not to mention The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time. Both of those games are considered classics, and not available on other platforms. Everybody I knew back then had an N64. I've seen lists where Ocarina Of Time is called the best game of all time. I don't necessarily agree with that, but it was fun, and amazing for its time.

    I always thought the GameCube had THE most comfortable controller.

    Goldeneye...I haven't thought about that game in years. Can't even imagine how many hours my friends and I spent playing that game...

    Zelda, Super Mario World, and Mario Kart are the best games of all time. Challenge that and you will be wrong! F Playstation, all that matters is 64!

    Agreed. The rest of Nintendo's controllers are really bad.

    I disagree. Mortal Kombat is a very good game, but I think Donkey Kong is the best game ever.


    My list goes somethin like this

    Zelda:Ocarina
    original Zelda
    Wrestlemania 2000(we had some classic created characters, Nacho Bel Grande, Deuce Bigelow, AIDS & Gonorrhea as a tag team, Teddy Molester, Cheech)
    Super Mario World(snes)
    Super Mario 1
    Excitebike
    Bug!(Sega Saturn)

    I always liked Ice Hockey for NES. You could adjust all the guys to 3 different sizes and we would make them all the skinny dudes that could fight forever. Blades of Steel was pretty epic.

    How 'bout Double Dribble? My bro always owned me and it was the first time I discovered video game inspired rage.

    Never had that one, but the sports games were pretty impressive looking. I had the equally unsuccessful Saturn.

    It wasn't as bad as John Elway Football. That was one of the worst all-time. Even Atari Football, where if you missed a pass it was considered a punt, was more entertaining then that game.

    Yeah, but "NFL Football '94 Starring Joe Montana" was great. It was the best football game there ever was on Sega. "Joe Montana Football" didn't even have the NFL License so the teams were all generic.

    I remember the commercial where they were showing Montana Rorschach ink blot tests and he just kept repeating "Reggie White" for each one. :D

    Tecmo Super Bowl was another great football game. Play as the Raiders or BIlls and run sweep left for TD's just about all day.

    Spent alot of hours fighting as Little Mac....another great game



    Anybody ever get to the 2nd stage of Top Gun? I can vaguely remember doin it once or twice, but landing on the aircraft carrier was a real whore.

    EA Hockey and Madden football were the shit on Sega. Many hours in college wasted with that fucker. Also, Sega had the most durable controllers I have ever seen.
