I recently bought an N64 and started browsing the Internet with Links via an Apple IIe. Strongly recommend ditching the modern World.
N64 is an interesting choice for this topic. I love N64 games for the nostalgia, but I think the early 3D generation has aged worse than most video game generations.
I've been playing dk64 on the switch emulator recently, and partially agree. The gameplay has been really fun, but the camera controls are a bit rage inducing. There was 1 mini game I had to do like 20 times to beat, due to the horrible semi fixed camera.
Yeah. I can deal with graphics of any fidelity but the camera and controls of the early 3D era were rough.
It's a very good collectathon but I had more fun doing it alongside RetroAchevements. One advantage was the comments on the specific mini games helped because there was sometimes a trick to it (one was literally unplayable on my version, you had to abuse pause to win).
N64 era 3-D is super nauseating and rough. I genuinely can’t play those games.
This is the way.
