Anyone who thinks the N64 was "The greastsna conal eva!" has Rose-Tinted Glasses on.
Nope definitely not it really was the best console ever lol and most people still play and love the games today so it isn't rosy retrospect if it's an on-going thing.
I remember when blockbuster stopped renting consoles way back (yes they used to rent actual consoles) me and my mom went there and they were selling older consoles and all the games and the price tag was $1.99 on each console so we grabbed a genesis and a saturn and went up to the counter and the lady was like "oh these are half off and buy one get one free" so we got both consoles for 99 cents and then she said "oh heres a pile of games for them we were going to throw out so if you want them you can have them" so I got like 5-10 games for each was pretty cool.
