N64 is a good nostalgia console for me, but most of my physical games are lost at this point.
Been trying to get some emulation going but been plagued with controller issues. A USB adapter I’ve been using introduces weird input drift into any original N64 controller I use, so I don’t know if there are solid USB adapters people use or if there’s a decent controller out there that’s worth getting for PC play while still retaining N64 feel. Anyone out there have any thoughts?
My take, a big focus of retro gaming is on the handhelds coming out and N64 games are only just becoming playable on the latest hardware. Definitely no loss of love for the N64 out there.
The biggest issue I think is emulation only just started to hit obscure titles recently with paralell rdp and angrylion for the graphics. To add people finally getting away from Project 64 which was heavily prone to timing issues (games running slower/faster than on actual hardware, causing things not to happen the way they should)
Handhelds can probably already handle the popular titles, but obscure titles are still a ways out since handhelds have more issues going to the more accurate engines. Popular titles are usually working through more hackish solutions.
Reddit just put itself at the end of the content website human centepede. Why bother re-inserting the 6-time digested poop somewhere further up the centepede?
It was caught in an unfortunate time of very early 3d gaming. The ps2/GC era improved graphically by such a massive degree, and really allowed for a lot more mechanical depth in games. N64 did have some absolute classics though, and yet emulation still isn’t in as good of a state as the following generation. I’ve become quite spoiled by how good Dolphin is, and it is the standard I compare all emulators to. So I don’t find myself as nostalgic for majoras mask or glover, as I am for wind waker, or pokemon colleseum.
I’d say it doesn’t exactly equate to anything I’ve tried before, in one way, the green flavor. It isn’t strong, and rather light. The other flavor, on the other hand, reminds me of a faint sunflower seed nuttiness. Though, I did use younger leaves, and no older leaves nor stems as of yet…🤔 I’ll have to try a few more things. Might be interesting with rhubarb and in coffee, too.
