This (2024), has been an interesting year for me. I have dedicated the entire year to hunting down N64 cartridges that are still missing in my collection, all while playing some of the newest games around. My year ends with a Sega Saturn purchase, and a general 1990s vibe. But what was the year in…
Yes, it has been 27 years since Super Mario 64. Despite the fact that this article is mainly focused on that Nintendo 64 groundbreaking title, it wouldn’t be fair to say that the first game to get 3-D right has been the most influential game of my gaming life…even though it could be. While I…
Personally, 1996 is dear to me. Super Mario 64, which might be my second favorite game of all time, arrived along with my favorite console of all time, the Nintendo 64. For music, it signaled the arrival of Goo Goo Dolls to mainstream prominence with their hit single “Name”, and yes, I also danced the…
This week, I reached the Super Mario Odyssey credits for the second time since 2018. The first time around, I mainly rushed through the game trying to get just enough moons to reach the finish line. It was a fun experience, and I greatly enjoyed Nintendo’s technical mastery of the Switch hardware at the time….
For 1990s kids, such as myself, there was no better time to be a gamer than in the aforementioned decade. Video games were in their infancy period, and thus, new genres and groundbreaking gameplay innovations were a more common occurrence than in modern times.

With Black Friday gone, and the Holiday season fast approaching (though there are no console launches this year), I have decided to list the best console launch titles of all time. After all, most gamers that want a new console (be it PS5 or XBSX) haven’t been able to nab one. Thus, the new console…
I have written plenty on Nintendo, and the Nintendo 64’s blunders in losing ground to Sony’s PlayStation in the mid to late 1990s. But today, it is about honoring Nintendo’s last cartridge based console, as it is, undoubtedly, my favorite Video Gaming system, ever. 25 years ago I was 11 (about to turn 12) The…
Unlike our previous ‘Best Nintendo 64 Games‘ list, which was mostly objective (we just listed the game based on professional critic averages score). Today’s list is -nearly – fully subjective. These are my personal favorite Nintendo 64 Games. The criteria used for the placement of these games is the following: How good (and impactful in…
With 32.93 million consoles sold, the Nintendo 64 fell quite short of the Sony PlayStation’s (at the time) historic sales numbers. Sony’s debut system reached the 100 million mark effectively ending Nintendo’s decade long domination of the home console market. Despite this, Nintendo always makes money on software, and it was no different during the…
It might seem crazy, but this week the Nintendo 64 turned 25 years old, marking an important milestone for one of the most influential consoles in gaming history. Today’s edition of Throwback Bit Thursday presents a perfect occasion for me to remember what is, perhaps, my favorite console ever. A Child with Dreams and a…
