I disagree...I was there the entire time with the N64...I disliked the thing after the first week I owned it, the first week it was even out on the US market. I didn't like Mario 64, still do not. I didn't like Zelda on the 64 either...still do not. I never liked Goldeneye for that matter...even when it was current. The thing just isn't my cup of tea.
I was speaking generally. There are thousands of people on the internet picking up N64 games, because Metal Jesus said they were hidden gems. Seeing how N64 has aged, along with all of its quirks, it's not uncommon for people to feel disappointed. I would be, too. Fortunately, I'm not insane, and I don't compare consoles from decades ago to current hardware. You can't believe 98% of the stuff you read on the internet, anyway.
As for Saturn vs PlayStation vs Nintendo 64, there's really no contest. Nintendo has omitted so many genres, it's no wonder some would say it has no games. If you're into fighting games, for example, you're completely out of luck.
To me, N64's appeal were the open worlds. I appreciate games which can pull off larger areas to explore, or give you a sense of freedom. Zelda games, Mario, Banjo, Conker ... they weren't as open as games can be nowadays, but they weren't as restricting as Crash Bandicoot, a game I once absolutely loved because of it's humor and colorful visuals, but grew to appreciate less and less because of the camera, general limitations and almost on-rails gameplay.
Anyway, no one reads this or cares. N64 was OK. It still might be, if you're a particular kind of gamer. It's obviously not for everyone, but I guess Americans dig it hard, since it sold better in the US than in EU and Japan combined.
