With up to par graphics and a normal controller. Focus on bringing good first party titles to the system on release. Bring luigis mansion zelda all that good shit for the console and make handheld versions of the games instead. Why is twilight princess remake on wii u and not n3ds?Cuz the system is too weak.Come on nintendo I remember being 3 years old getting an n64 for christmas whats happening now? Im 21 and have bought ALL your consoles since(not counting rehashes like dsi).

Good hardware bottlenecked by cartridges. The N64 certainly hits a nostalgia point for me but from a business perspective it's safe to say it was relatively DOA thanks to the PlayStation. I don't think Nintendo wants to hit that mark again especially after the Wii U. I think they're hoping to actually push units into people's homes this time.

Setting aside all the points made in this thread already about the downsides of the N64, I kinda agree with you, but from what we have heard of the NX so far, it might be the console you're looking for.
I am in no way disappointed with the Wii U's graphics, but the 3DS leaves something to be desired with the low resolution. The 3D effect would be much better utilized with a higher resolution as well.

PS1 was better than the N64. But Saturn? I can't think of even one game on the Saturn worth buying a Saturn for.
The Saturn didn't have an absolutely great library, but enough to beat the N64 rather easily. I'd recommend checking out the system if you enjoy fighting games, Nights, and other arcade style games.

I think I read that the Saturn versions of Pandemonium were also better than PS1 but I never tried it out myself as I got the cheaper editions (PS1).

One of these, but for Saturn, Dreamcast, N64, PS1, etc, would be pretty neat.

Aren't these the clone consoles with really bad audio issues?

Never seen clone consoles for disc based systems before, doubt they exist. Plus people who usually buy those might not know too much about video games to begin with.
Dreamcast for example needs no hacking. Just burn a CD with the game image and pop it in to play.

PC is the greatest machine of all time.

Why can't Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft give me a PC?

ohhh wait. Sony and Microsoft already have a PC-like console. sorry Nintendo, you have to go.

And why there are so many rant/praise threads about Nintendo lately??

PS1 was better than the N64. But Saturn? I can't think of even one game on the Saturn worth buying a Saturn for.
Castlevania Nocturne in the Moonlight?? AKA Castlevania Symphony of the Night full version??
maybe just for that one, but the only superiority of that version is the content, the Technics aspects weren't that good.

Quantum computers are the greatest machines of all time.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think nvidia wants to get in the x64 cpu market anyways
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    you've seen how much intel is struggling getting into the gpu market
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and nvidia is already doing ARM
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think they want to take more focus away from their gpus
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah I think Nvidia s future lays in AI GPU acceleration stuff if they can get that going it's going to be super interesting in the long term
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    AI assisted game creation might become a thing
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    At least that's something I think would be pretty cool.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Don some VR glasses and gloves and talk to the computer and paint entire worlds

    "Now we need a spring fed river flowing down the north side and add some wild life appropriate for the biome"
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Many TBs of assets and the programming of something like that is going to be tough but I think it's something we might see in 20 years maybe sooner
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Psionic Roshambo AI assisted game creation is kinda already here, there was recently that AI that can turn any 2D image into a fully modeled 3D object, it's not perfect, but it's a starting point, beats starting from zero

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    before that there was one to generate a fully modeled scene from a 2D image
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but most recently, there was one that actually generates a working unity scene with terrain and textures already set up that you can import right into unity, that's a huge time saver right there

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and using LLMs to generate NPC dialogue and even dynamically generated quests is something i'm sure is already happening

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    will just take some time for games made using those things to be completed and released
