A Gamer Looks At 40
Ep 38 - Destined to be Divisive: The Nintendo 64
Show Notes

How do you follow one of the most popular consoles ever made? If you're Nintendo, take every risk and break every convention. While my memories of the Nintendo 64 are mostly rosy, this 64 bit workhorse brings just as much ire to retro game fans as it does excitement. The controller is strange, the visuals less than crisp, and the games came on carts. But for many of my guests, the N64 brings good memories of traversing 3D space for the first time and playing multiplayer games with friends. On this episode, we look at both sides of the N64 coin and attempt to find the truth therein.
