My comment is:
Don't forget PS is a mature system and N64 has just started its infant stage
now. If you sell N64 for the amount of time PS was sold, you may get a
figure greater or smaller than that of PS. It is not predictable.

Gay-station owners always say about the number of N64 games availible
compared to the number of GSX games available.
Sure you got more range to buy from but the 5 games I got (and I'm in the
UK so lots of games you might have won't be out here yet) which are :-
Turok = Good game, pity it gets boring quickly
movie atmpsphere hwile you're playing
Mario 64 = Still thought to some people as the best game ever, nuff said
Diddy Kong Racing = Best racer on the N64 yet, which combines racing and a
whole lotta adventure
in the way that you don't just shoot people you've got missions to do
These are 5 top games and I could go to the games store close my eyes and
pick a game and the chances are it'd be a really good one too
out each month but not many of them are top games where as the N64 seems to
be focusing on the quality of the games not the quantity (although some
American games I've seen seem to be breaking the N64's seal of quality,
wheel of fortune, Cruis'n USA to name a few)
The Gay-station has lots of top games like FFVII but not at all as many as
the N64

How is it a good game if you get bored of it quickly?

The Playstation currently IMO has the racing genre won with Gran Tourismo.

That quality vs quantity thing is crap. Lincoln said it when he realised
that there were an appalingly low amount of games in development and it was
his job to cover for it.

The N64 is a year and a half younger than the PSX, and is almost two years
old now. It's well beyond the infant stage. At almost two years into its
lifespan the Playstation had far more games than the N64.

How long does a system have to be out before it's not considered an
infant anymore?
Face it this has nothing to do with system infancy...it has to do with
Nintendo signing a bunch of BS developers, giving the a big name
"Dream Team", then watching it all go to hell, so then they have to
turn around and make sure the big name developers who are known for
quality product join the game (late), and now they are suffering as
those big names scramble to put together good products for the N64.

I was saying that Turok is a good game but you get bored of it quickly,
it's not a good game, I'm not listing the best of the best I'm listing the
games I've got
