I hope that whatever happens to Nintendo, they keep making great games. The hardware needs to be "good enough" to not get in the way. As long as the games are fun, I will keep buying them.
We have a Nintendo 64, a GameCube, and a Wii in my apt, because there are versions of MarioKart and SmashBros that are best on a particular system. But the games, not the system, are the reason we keep them all.
- rquirk 13y agoI completely agree but the N64 and GC, at least in their European incarnations, look like crap on modern TVs. They were probably fuzzy back in the day too, but the Dreamcast looks a lot better than a GC and they're from a similar epoch. The last under-the-TV console I bought was a Gamecube BTW, so it isn't like I'm spoilt by XBox or anything. The Euro N64 didn't have RGB and (obviously) neither have HDMI and building the right cable for the GC is... non trivial. Since they were from the 4:3 era you either get a stretched screen or black borders. On the GC it seems to force my TV to stretch all the time even if I set it to 4:3, which is a bit annoying. At least the Game Boy, DS, etc have their own screens built in so this is less of a problem.
