I don't see many posts here about the N64 and it doesn't look like there is an N64 community on lemmy.world It's the console I have the most nostalgia for and I have over 130 games in my collection. I'm currently playing a ROM hack called SM64: Beyond the Cursed Mirror. It has some pretty challenging platforming but it is fun.

Xbox was a later generation, so definitely overpowered.

PlayStation, N64, and Saturn were generation 5.

PS2, GameCube, Dreamcast, and Xbox we're generation 6.

Yeah I wasn't really talking about tech specs, well aware of that, but thanks. Sorry maybe I worded it awkward, I was wasted last night. Point was that by the advent of Playstation and X-Box Sega and Nintendo kind of faded into the background a lot. I mean if people (rightfully) feel like N64 didn't get much attention, GameCube and Dreamcast got even less. The past and the present affect the future. I'm just glad we still have Nintendo and Zelda and Metroid and such even if I'm quite a long time of savings away from playing the newer games.
