You all remember this system, right? Well, today marks the 15th anniversary this video game system came out in the United States. The N64 is a CLASSIC, and I used to play it ALL of the time in elementary/early middle school (before the days of the Gamecube/PS2/Xbox and Wii/PS3/360 gaming consoles). Nowadays, college students like me reminisce about the times we used to play these games on this platform as often as we could. I remember the countless number of days playing Mario Kart 64 (like a bajillion times); Pokemon Stadium 2 (when there only used to be 250 Pokemon); and watching my friend play classic single-player games like Banjo Kazooie (the bird-bear creature game that tried to be like Mario), Donkey Kong 64 and, of course Super Mario 64. I cannot forget the original Super Smash Bros. game!
(I recommend clicking on the links - they link to Youtube videos of a commercial/gameplay of each game, which are each about a minute long)
What do you remember most about the N64?
--- Sidenote: How many of you guys recognized the new small tweaks to the Youtube videos? There is a speed-up/speed-down button to the left of the video quality button, and the full-screen mode just makes it full-screen to the browser size - NOT the size of the computer) ---
