Nintendo 64 Game Console: A Review

Released in 1996, the Nintendo 64 is the oldster of the current generation of game systems. It is extremely impressive, therefore, that it has held up as well as it has. While the other games have had to come out with new consoles, requiring more money and new game purchases in most cases, the N64 has remained quite playable and current.

Mario 64, one of the first games available, is still one of the best games available. Other games such as the Zelda series, Pod Racer, and Mario cart are equally as fun and give days if not months of gaming fun. The library of games available for the N64 is simply HUGE.

The Nintendo 64 recently released an Expansion Pack which upgrades the graphics and speed of the machine, allowing games such as Pod Racer to show off even higher class graphics than the base system. Newer games, like Majora's Mask, require the expansion pack to play.

We've owned a N64 for years and find that no matter who comes over to visit, or what the age group of the visitors, there is always a game that is vastly fun to play. There are single-player games, party games, competition games, cooperative games, thinking games, shooting games, and everything in between.

For a household looking for a fun way to spend time together or to relax and have fun, the N64 is definitely worth looking into. It holds up well compared to the other consoles on the market, has a huge library of games available, and offers something for everyone.

CPU: MIPS 64-bit RISC
Clock Speed: 93.75 MHz
