N64 vs. PS1 (games)

all the good games for n64 from either nintnedo or rare.

ps1 may not have had all the epic titles but it sure did have a huge collection of interesting games

N64

that's a tough choice. they both had great games

FF7 case closedasmallchild

- You can't have fun with friends with FF7

- You can't play too long with only FF7

- You cant have any ''OMG LMAO!'' moments with FF7

FF7 and all JRPGs are overrated

I got no idea how the PS1 won, every one i knew had a N64, i only knew one dude with a PS1.Citizen_Zero

PSone conquered because of its huge library of RPG games which hit their hey-day during that gen, or so that's what I say.  FF7, FF8, FFtactics, Legend of Dragoon, Legend of Mana, Legend of Legaia, Tekken series, Twisted Metal Series, Syphon Filter, FF9, Dino Crisis, Parasite Eve, MGS, Crash Bandicoot 1-3, Spyro the Dragon 1-3, and Wild Arms are among those in my collection currently, not counting those I've downloaded from the PSN.

As I've said before, the PS1 had a crapload of AA games and a few AAA games. The N64 had maybe between a dozen and two dozen AAA games with a couple AA games. Plus, the PS1 had more media features and was much cheaper.SkateGame

PS1 had a huge number of great games. My two favourites were the original Resident Evil, and Warhawk.

I don't understand people saying the N64 had a better library. It's impressive, NOW that you look back on it. But during the actual era it was frustrating as hell to wait so long.

ff7 is overrated and so is super mario 64 in fact u might as well have skipped the entire n64 and ps1 battle because nothing good was brought from it.nyoroism

I hope you are joking with this statement.  This gen brought gaming into 3d.  It's probably been the biggest jump from one gen to the next of any gaming gen.

Ok I really liked MGS but what did PS1 have against games like SSB, Goldeneye, Mario 64... I dont understand why people call the N64 a flop. Did I miss the great PS1 games?Timesplitter14

Anyway, to answer the topic question, people saw the PlayStation as a quality electronic whereas they saw the N64 as a toy. The PlayStation was a more "grown up" system and was held in higher regard. Sony wanted the consumers to feel like they had a very sleek piece of equipment. Even the disk cover/top rising slowly up had an effect on people. That's why PS1 did better than N64.
N64 had some great games (even if they were slow to get out), but people idoled the PlayStation system more. N64 had what you mentioned plus Perfect Dark, Zelda, Wave Race, Rayman 2, etc. PlayStation had Crash Bandicoot Warped, Syphon Filter, Final Fantasy 7 & 8, Silent Hill, Ridge Racer, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (better on PS), MGS, Gran Turismo, etc. There are your games.

Because N64 still had "cartridges" and that was so last gen when the PS1 was around.littleman1992

I've been told that "The only reality we truly know is our own".

I could say Ocarina of Time doesn't deserve a 10, and I don't think it does, but that doesn't change the fact that it did on Gamespot.
