N64 was the console that I dreamed of having as a child but I couldn't because of its high cost. I had to wait 25 years since its launch to try the gems in its catalog, and I can say that the wait was worth it. Maybe it's because I wanted it so much when I was a kid, and I didn't own or play any console after the Sega Genesis, that to this day the graphics of the N64 still dazzle me and seem incredible, and I love them so much that I prefer that aesthetic (with all its limitations) before modern hyper-realistic graphics.
All classics. Had all of them too except I rented wave race 64. If I was a grown up then with grown up money I would have bought it myself lol the best of times brother
I was 5 haha 😆 mario 64 and Star wars shadows of the empire where the first games I played on the console as in Europe because it came out in 97 we had more games available at the launch :)
I liked shadow of the empire, but the have works like bland and empty. Even back then that wasn't n64 best showcase for what the system could do. I miss the old nintendo though, this is when nintendo was hardcore and took graphics and mature games seriously.
Oh yeah, those vhs tapes were awesome!! I was watching the starfox one on youtube some months ago. I didn't even know they had several. Though the starfox vhs was the only one. Then Iater on I ended up seeing some of thr other tapes and realize that the starfox one was the best one.
As a kid seeing all consoles choose cds over cartridges made me think the N64 was a step behind but as adult playing a ps1 resident evil loading screen after opening every single door compared to n64 being on cartridges was the best option
I hated the PS1. Long load times, discs always skipped so the cut scenes were always skewed. With a cartridge it just seems they work every time. Aside from some dust they just work. You get one hairline scratch on a ps1 disc and who knows halfway through the game you may find out that it just freezes and you can’t progress. I absolutely hated the PS1 compared to the N64.
Thanks dude! I’m off the map at the moment but I’m replying to you before I’m offline again! Part 2 should be out by September! I’m glad you liked part 1! Hope all is well and can’t wait to try Coca Cola Ultimate
@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadio Oh yeah brother I already have four bottles of that ready for a chug. Same with The two new Baja flavors of Mountain Dew 1.Passionfruit Punch And 2. Caribbean Splash. 😋
The first time I ever saw an N64 in person was at Blockbuster; Mario64 was the game. I was blown away. That station at Blockbuster is what convinced me to get an N64.
Mario64 and Pilotwings64 were available for player at the Nintendo's Megadome in Laronde Montreal before it' official release, We've play all summer in 1996. I remember like it was last year. Mario64 was not complete, second floor was not available and if I'm right, the logo was Ultra64
Really great, detailed video. I'm excited for part 2 to come out! The 64 was released when I was only 1 year old, and my parents bought it for me at the end of its life cycle, as my first console. So many memories of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. What a great way to get introduced to gaming.
Ahhh yeah! Ocarina of time got me into archery and buying a bow and arrows lol part 2 will go through the life of the console until 2002. It’s definitely a solid and great system to start with. Mine was the NES so we both started with quality stuff
Well nintendo did had a reason to go for a 64bit cpu and add 4 controller ports to the N64,because they knew that other competitors didn’t had that but they also knew that the atari jaguar was berally a 64bit. machine so they had to stand out from the rest by also implementing cgi graphical capabilities into their N64 system, Just imagine if nintendo opted for a 32bit cpu instead with no cgi builtin and offering only two controller ports,then it would,ve any advantage over it’s competitors,but i guess that even if atari did came up with their 32bit panter game console instead,nintendo would,ve still go for a 64bit cpu inside their N64 system.
I'm more than certain that if the president of Sega of Japan had actually accepted most of the ideas brought to them. They might have at least been second in the console wars during the late 90s
Holycrap dude this video has taken OFF!!!! 😲 I seriously remember like 3 or 4 week ago when I looked at the current status off it it had just made 1k. Maybe even 1.1k. You are flying like a mad man right now.
Hahaha it’s crazy! It took a bit but it’s finally getting some traction. It’s always the videos that take a good 6 months of nothing that they will finally pop off.
@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadio Yeah and this video is the type of video that most people would be interested in watching. Because it's a one of a kind. A video with informative stuff that's in it that no one else knows. It's weird because my videos consistently hit harder than yours do but when your videos do hit, they hit way harder than mine. 😁 Overall you got Me absolutely Smoked man! Bro I am so happy for you. You are doing so well, and I really mean that. I can't envy you even if I tried because at the end of the day I know my D.J Glowing Ice works his butt off. Keep up the good work man. Really looking forward to seeing Part II. 🛡🗡❤️🩹🙏
@maximusthe4th Thanks man! I will always try hard to dig deeper and harder to leave people who have some deep knowledge on the subject with a few extra things they didn’t know. I become such a nerd when I research my mind is fixated on it like a virus until I finish and release it lol. It’s funny how that works, every one of your videos always pops off well, you know your audience. My problem is my videos vary too much from one to the next so it kills my reach but I’m beyond caring about competition or anything. I just put the stuff out and I’m happy to see my brothers like you grow with me 😎
I will never forget popping in Mario 64 for the first time. My sisters do not game -- we all sat around the TV amazed for hours that day. I've played better games, seen better graphics and watched the industry explode since then... Nostalgia is unfair because even the actual Matrix or Ready Player One couldn't impress me as much as that little box did all those years ago. Also, they can lie about it all they want -- the N64 doesn't use CDs because Nintendo was furious with Sony and was in no way willing to pay royalties for the format (Similar to how Microsoft insisted against Blu-ray in the Xbone). They refuse to admit this and come up with a jillion semi plausible excuses but I guarantee that's most of the reason.

"AROUND THE SAME TIME Nintendo started developing the Nintendo 64 console, the game, Super Mario 64, was in development AROUND THE SAME TIME" You REALLY need a proof-reader bro, that is some clumsy writing
I wanted an N64 so bad when I was a kid. It was too expensive so by 1999 I got my first console a PS1. And I hated it. The discs always skipped and never played right. I’d be playing a game and all of a sudden it would just freeze. I hated that stupid console and the discs that would scratch just by looking at them. I’m 32 now and I still wish I had an N64 lol. Fast forward to 2005 and I was playing Star Wars Revenge Of The Sith. And sure enough I’d get halfway through the story and it would just freeze at the same part every time. I had fun with games like Crash Bandicoot and Spyro but it just wasn’t the same as N64.
Nintendo really had a perfect Domination video game plan that would've worked, if they hadn't use cartridges smh. Man, this was Nintendo biggest fuck up that hurt them for generations. Didn't know they had rockstar before anybody else under a different studio name at the time! They coulved had GTA exclusively if it was for the fuck up of the n64 using cartridges! Yikes. They are still somewhat recovering from this even today. I'm glad they are better off now than they were back then. The switch is a success. Nintendo really needs to go back to power with the switch 2 or wester there next console is.
@@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadiothey still are. I don't think they were stubborn back then at all. They saw most cd based consoles fail, so they stuck with what they knew and what worked for them . Only this time, it didn't work out the way they wanted it to work out.
@@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadio im done....check please....the prophecy has proven true if only we weren't so distracted.....shoot down the competition. Nintendo knew what to do all along. We didn't listen ahhhh.....ok I'm better now
@@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadio fine lol...I'm a large Nintendo collector, one of the don't show off my collection types, but I remember selling atleast 3 of those odyssey rifles new in box sealed years back for a good little penny. And know I just find out they were Nintendo products. I wondered why the guys kept offering me more n more cash for like 6 months to buy em(pre internet days) it makes me so mad, atleast my nwc carts stayed with me
@Retrogameplayer8000 nice dude, if you don’t mind, when time comes for making videos on things retro video game wise I’d love to pick your brain on things you might know about. Yeah you could have charged a lot more knowing now they were made by Nintendo! Oh well!
Instead of talking straight about the making of N64,why talking first about the history of nintendo? That makes no sense, You should,ve talked straight about the N64 and it’s impact in the long run,all that wasted history part could,ve be used for that👎
Nintendo always had their idea of always taking every new console in a different direction rather than building on prior console designs. I think with the switch they went pretty basic and standard but yeah up to the Wii, the kept breaking the mold for better or worse
N64 was the console that I dreamed of having as a child but I couldn't because of its high cost. I had to wait 25 years since its launch to try the gems in its catalog, and I can say that the wait was worth it.

Why did you have to wait 25 years
I had N64 with about 8 games, including Killer Instinct, Turok: Dinosaur Hunter, Mario Kart 64, Golden Eye, Wave Race 64 --
Good times.
All classics. Had all of them too except I rented wave race 64. If I was a grown up then with grown up money I would have bought it myself lol the best of times brother
I was 19 when this came out. I remember one of the RAs in my dorm had one and he showed me Shadows Of The Empire. My mind was blown.
I was 5 haha 😆 mario 64 and Star wars shadows of the empire where the first games I played on the console as in Europe because it came out in 97 we had more games available at the launch :)

I miss the old nintendo though, this is when nintendo was hardcore and took graphics and mature games seriously.
This video is for all those weirdos today who thinks nintendo is for kids and never made or had powerful consoles 😂😂😂😂
I was 7 best Christmas ever 😂❤
I remember watching the promotional vhs for Germany for hours - I was so hyped
Oh yeah, those vhs tapes were awesome!! I was watching the starfox one on youtube some months ago. I didn't even know they had several. Though the starfox vhs was the only one. Then Iater on I ended up seeing some of thr other tapes and realize that the starfox one was the best one.
As a kid seeing all consoles choose cds over cartridges made me think the N64 was a step behind but as adult playing a ps1 resident evil loading screen after opening every single door compared to n64 being on cartridges was the best option
Oh yeah for sure. It was a very weird time in the history of video games.
Really? Add a kid, I still think the n64 was better😂actually, I liked it better but playstation going with cds was the better choice
I hated the PS1. Long load times, discs always skipped so the cut scenes were always skewed. With a cartridge it just seems they work every time. Aside from some dust they just work. You get one hairline scratch on a ps1 disc and who knows halfway through the game you may find out that it just freezes and you can’t progress. I absolutely hated the PS1 compared to the N64.

I love this documentary! Great job!
Thanks man! I appreciate your great praise! Have a great rest of your week! 😎
Can’t tell you how many times my brother, me, and two of his or two of my friends would play goldeneye pvp.
Resident evil 2 was also a must have
Oh yeah man, I got resident evil 2 for Christmas from my uncle. I remember the cartridge being wayyy heavier than others lol

Thanks you so much for the video
You’re welcome, I can’t wait to have part 2 finished! Thanks for watching! 😎
Ultra hand cool 1:05 there is even an ability with that name in zelda tears of the kingdom.
Most underrated system ever and the game cube maybe the Wii u but the N64 was never fully unlocked 🔓

I beat Mario 64 in a toys r us by my friends house before the system actually released 😂 glorious system. Thanks for the video!
The title says full documentary but its only part 1.
It’s a full documentary of the “making” of Nintendo 64. It is continued as there will be a next video on the “life” of the Nintendo 64
9:31 this is why i hate early 90s video game marketing
that was actually very cruel
Thanks
