      The PC had a much larger library too, but I always preferred N64 games to play with friends.
      The idea was having a machine to play 3rd party and solo games (the PC) and a console in the TV for local multiplayer, and with this purpose in mind, N64 is the best console ever.

Kiemonte is the wise, mature, and grand mage leader and ruler. Sunari the dancing mage and Neyla the mind mage are fraternal sisters. Xavior is the close friend and mage decipherer, and Gerodi and Jalrez are the mage guards. Want more?

An evolution of Miiverse in creating virtual spaces/communities. Nintendo's take on the metaverse... similar to what PS3 tried with 'Home' online. Regardless Miiverse needs to make a comeback...

    Yoshi's Story! I have to be honest here I really like cartoony games, and Nintendo even nowadays has that mastered. I really don't like the games where they're trying to make the characters and scenery look "real" in modern gaming. Well.. that and the Woke LGBTQ+ stuff they've been coming out with. Mind you there IS a market 'niche' for that material however I'm not in that category. I stopped modern games due to that stuff, and DLC, and the greedy game companies a lot of times releasing games that aren't even finished yet requiring patches and so forth. The online aspect is also a turn off for me. I like the physical releases that I can keep as my own, and online games when they're expired you can't play them anymore after hours upon hours of gameplay. If there's no replayability like there is with say... the N64 for example I'm not spending money on it, and with all the money one spends on DLC's I would expect to be able to keep the game and replay it possibly in the far future... again like the N64. You just can't do that with these games created specifically for online. If that's the future of gaming I'm not on board for that.
    There always has be some some kind of Woke "agenda" attached to many modern games out there and I just don't swing that way. That's not my bag, baby! I play games to be entertained not preached to. If I want to hear a preacher I go to church, and I do go to church! Obviously these game developers can do whatever they want but that doesn't mean I have to buy their material, and I don't. In any event I love your list, bud. I miss this time era to be honest. Not just the N64 but everything from that generation, however it could be because that's what I grew up with. Thank you for this time machine, man. It means a lot to me. Take care now....
