I can't get into the N64, never could.  Super Mario64 was NOT as fun as NiGHTS on Saturn.  

I love NiGHTS Into Dreams but really... I mean really....

Yeah I have to agree with the few folks who said the SNES was their final foray into Nintendo. I only purchased an N64 in 2005 when I was working as a Family Therapist and used video game therapy with one of my clients. I was not impressed. My parents bought me a Gamecube for for birthday in 2002 and my wife and I bought a Wii in 2006 for the kids. I see the value in all of them, but for me, the worst was the N64 by far. Sure, I loved the Zelda games and Mario 64 was cool, but there wasn't much more. Forsaken? Doom? No thank you, I have a PC for that.

I gotta go with turbostar on this one, NiGHTS was pretty much perfect.
I just COULD NOT get into mario 64 though, that is, until i found out about all the glitches about 10 years later, and then i just like messing around, still never beat it.

N64 Got my vote. I always thought its graphics looked horrible and the controller sucked especially the analog stick.

That's not the point though. I love both games (I clear Xmas NiGHTS evey winter) but they aren't comparable to anyone who isn't trying to make NiGHTS out as some sort of Saturn mascot. Mario 64 is a massive action platform game with a TON of stuff to do and loads of exploration and such. NiGHTS is basically a score attack game. You might as well be comparing Tengai Makyo with Star Solider.

I'm not saying either game is better than the other, I'm saying it's not fair to the games themselves to compare them.

you make a good point, but mine is the same as my evaluation with all games -
I had more fun with NiGHTS, and got more play out of it.

so yeah, it's a bit like saying megadeth is better than the beatles, but hey, we all get opinions.

....(I clear Xmas NiGHTS evey winter)....

Good to know I'm not the only one.... :lol:  Though I also play through Banjo Kazooie on N64 (at least to Freezeezy Peak) every winter.  If you pop in Nights on Wii and go to your dream on Christmas you get a familiar Xmas Nights tune :P

I also play Christmas Nights every winter, it actually changes seasons with more than just Winter. I also really love the music.

yeah nights and x'msa nights are pretty repetitive games but it is pretty neat that the games are programed to take into account the set date on your console to effect the game play that was pretty neat

I've had those 2032s last a few years actually.
