On September 29th, 1996, the Nintendo 64 made its debut in North America. The console’s release followed the Super Nintendo, widely considered one of the best video game systems ever made. As a result, the N64 had a lot to live up to, but the platform quickly delivered some of the greatest games ever made. Titles like Super Mario 64, GoldenEye, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and Pokemon Snap endeared the console to fans around the globe. Given how long it has been since the platform released, it stands to reason that there are a lot of gamers that might not have had the chance to play many of these games. Fortunately, some of the best will be coming to Nintendo Switch in the near future.
