Codenamed "Project Reality," the Nintendo 64 design was mostly complete by mid-1995, but its launch was delayed until 1996, when Time named it Machine of the Year. It was launched with games here in North America. YES only two and we had to wait months before any more comes to the US stores so in the mean time we were stuck with just two launch games.
In the end the N64 was doomed from the start seeing that Nintendo stuck using cartridges only, lack of 3rd party games and getting beaten by Sony's Playstation the Nintendo 64 system never gotten it's full potential even though I still have a small heart for this system and have a good amount of games for it.
In September of 1996 the my very first come console that I pre-order was the Nintendo 64 and brought it from a NYC gaming store Electronic Boutique now part of Gamestop.

There is a great reason for that...
EVERYONE could program on an IBM clone.
MANY could even code on an Apple Mac.
But who in the name of sanity was using Sun Computers and didn't have the last name of Lucas??? It would have been asking less of third party game companies to program on an Amiga, for Peet's sake.
And yet...the N-64 had quite a few gems and lots of popularity, despite Nintendo making sure that everyone was dedicated to making games...JUST...FOR...THEM.

I definitely had Mario 64 on launch. I forget what other games came out after launch but the only few I had were Super Smash Bros, Banjo Tooie, 4 different racing car games, kirby 64 the crystal shards, pokemon stadium and pokemon snap, star fox 64 and mario party 2 I think? Those were the days. I was born early enough experience the way older game systems growing up, but still young enough to experience the leap in graphical and gameplay technology of 3d. Must've been in what 5th grade when the n64 came out? I don't remember it was so long ago.
Well, this one certainly brings back memories. The N64 was the first console I've ever played on, so you can pretty much tell why I still hold Nintendo in such high regard while Sony and Microsoft can bite the dust for all I care. Sure Nintendo has had shady practices, but if you're a company whose core demographic is beginners (usually children), you tend to have more of a consumer friendly attitude.
