I still prefer the N64 version myself, though I feel I have to point out that it isn't for nostalgic reasons. I feel the original has more interesting level design, a more interesting single player mode, which has an incredibly high replayability. It also feels more like its trying to be a game. The graphics are definately dated, and the controls aren't as easy to get used to anymore, but those are the only aspects that really need changing as they were limited by the console the game was designed for.
The new game is good. I did enjoy playing through the main game, but couldn't bring myself to do it twice. A few of the multiplayer maps are quite good too, but I find split-screen isn't as fun as the original for some reason. I prefered hunting for the good weapons on the map, rather than selecting them from the start. I liked that proximity mines could become annoying. I liked the fact that on some original maps, some areas were comparable to others, meaning screen-lookers were occasionally mis-lead. I liked how some maps gave you the opportunity to spot players you couldn't necessarily reach straight away. I liked the hollow walls you could hide in. I liked how you could find body armour to make things more interesting, rather than more predictable when going head-to-head against a single player. (That is to say rather than fighting on next to no health and expecting to die first).
As I say, I do like the Wii version. It's just a little too straight forward compared to the original.
