PS1 VS N64 THE TRUTH OF WHICH HAS BETTER BITS

Yup it is true the n64 has more bits than a ps1 you know why?The Ps1 came out before the N64 and they had 32 bits on it then 2 years later N64 was working on their system for awhile and made the N64 64 bits,Compare your Ps1 with the N64,first turn on your Ps1 play Tomb Raider,Syphon Filter,Syphon Filter 2.Do you see their body and face?They are square bodies.Now turn on N64,play the legend of zelda ocarina of time,the legend of zelda majoras mask,Banjo Tooie,Banjo Kazooie.Do you see that it is hard to tell they have a square body?Its because they dont!That proves that n64 has more bits than the ps1 and IF you see a n64 game like football and it has square bodies you wanna know why it is like that on the n64?its because if the game was on the Ps1 first they convert it to the n64 like the legend of zelda collectors edition they put all the zelda games on your gamecube like converting.That proves it!!!

re: PS1 VS N64 THE TRUTH OF WHICH HAS BETTER BITS

Its called the Nintendo 64 for a reason.

But sadly the N64 did not use discs, unlike the PS1. So the PS1 won the compatition.

And no I am not a Playstation fanboy. I like Nintendo more (retro nintendo, not modern day nintendo)

AND also I posted a reply to your last thread (the one about the dreams)

re: PS1 VS N64 THE TRUTH OF WHICH HAS BETTER BITS

the reason for that is because at the time, sony had no other console out, and had nothing to improve, they just needed to do better than the super nintendo, which was a 16-bit console, so the psx did a good thing at the time, and of course the n64 is better because it was released after the psx, when the developers knew and were able to makes more detailed games, and nintendo had to do better than sony, so that's why

re: PS1 VS N64 THE TRUTH OF WHICH HAS BETTER BITS

This may sound odd coming from the moderator around here, but your argument is pretty flawed. Specs do not define a good console. They help, but it's the game selection that determines that. Besides, you're judging on looks? I don't play games just to look at them.

A lot of people prefer the selection on Nintendo's console, since it had such exclusives like Mario, Zelda and that revered GoldenEye. On the other hand, many more people prefer the PSX collection with its vaster set of exclusives, like Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid and Tekken.

I'd rather not fuss over console superiority anyway. Someone who doesn't have an interest in the Ninty exclusives aren't going to be particularly swayed anyway.

I think that alot of people are like that,they actually go for the best graphics for example i heard a person say i couldnt play the wii because of bad graphics and he said he would go play ps3 than wii because of more bits and the looks

re: PS1 VS N64 THE TRUTH OF WHICH HAS BETTER BITS

honestly, who cares about the graphics?
i still think that NES>most of the other consoles, mostly because it had great games on it, like the legend of zelda, super mario bros, and a lot of other things

But do you think the graphics determine a game's value, and in turn the console's value?

Some people are like that, and indeed the visuals are pretty much the first thing people know about a game (or at least after the basic concept). However, I would not say a lot of people are like that, simply because the selling trends have painted a very different picture.

The Game Gear had a wider full colour screen and yet was easily beaten by the old Gameboy and its monochromatic screen display.

The PSX as you say is 'inferior' with its technology and yet didn't it sell more than our beloved N64?

The PS2 beat out the technically superior Gamecube and Xbox in sales as well.

Even if we consider the current selling trends of the current generation it is the 'technically inferior' machines that are outselling the beefier consoles.

That's not to say graphics aren't important, but rather that you can't call a win based on that alone.

re: PS1 VS N64 THE TRUTH OF WHICH HAS BETTER BITS

Yeah but about Xbox i think they are copiers because before Microsoft made Xbox I believe they said "What do Sony have more than us"?Then they made a Xbox and TOOK all the good games for n64 like Perfect Dark,Banjo Kazooie and other great games and ruined them and that is why they did not win the competition against Ps2 but for me i dont care about graphics i just made this topic to tell you which system has better bits because i heard tons of people say ps1 and n64 have the same bits which is not true

I agree. It is the games that make a console. I still like playing a lot of games on my 8-bit NES. It is the games that I am having fun with, not necessarily the power of the system. I like a lot of games on my SNES as much as a lot of games on my N64. The selection of games is right, games that are fun and found no where else. Whether they are primitive blocky graphics or textured mapped, the fun is found in the game play. The graphics are needed just enough to complement the whole experience.
Being that the N64 does not have a lot of RPGs, I do turn to the PS whenever I want to play many of those type of games. But I love the cart format style of games and do prefer the N64 for that reason and for the good exclusive games that are on that system.
There is the Star Wars Racer on the N64 that is not exclusive to the N64, I do prefer to play this on the N64 than on any of the other consoles that I have. It just feels better on the 64 and seems more fun.

And I think that you are really missing what some of us are trying to say. We love our N64 not because it is "more powerful," but because of the games. The power of a game console really doesn't amount to a hill of beans, it is what's on the console itself that is more important. It is really what the developers are doing with the extra bits that is important. You can build the most powerful game console in the world, but it will sink faster than a ton of bricks if the games stink. Right now the Wii is the weakest console in the present generation of gaming systems, but it is a number one seller because of the games and the innovation. The DS is not as powerful as the PSP, but it sells like hotcakes, again, because of the games. No one, who is a gamer, goes out and purchases a gaming system because its "the most powerful system," but because the games are fun.
I know that the manufacturers use a "mine is the most powerful" hype when marketing their system, but it is the games that make or break the system in the end.
