Dude get an old 64. I bought one a couple weeks ago and it’s sooo much fun playing classic games. No internet connection, no manipulative reward mechanisms. Just good fun.
Discussion
I had a gameboy when I was a kid so was wanting to get the switch for that type of thing too. When we travel kids can play some. I never had a 64 can you still play the old games? I heard on the Nintendo store through switch you can still access games like Kungfu, excite bike, Mario etc
Ive been buying essentially knock off games on eBay for $20 a pop and getting all the OG 64 games. I played 64 as a kid a TON, so it’s a blast for me. My collection is currently the original Mario party, Mario kart, Zelda, and smash brothers.
I don’t know anything about the switch though. I do like the idea of portability but we don’t travel enough for it to matter.
Nintendo 64 can not only run games but also Linux
And unlike a modern computer, it has no hardware backdoors
Good machine
Ohhh what’s this about running Linux?? What would be the reason to do so?
I'm waiting to see anyone use it for air gapped wallets personally lol. Not sure how much use there is for it right now but people only figured out it could run Linux a couple years ago so it might keep getting more useful
Damn that’s so cool. Would definitely be a sick, low key wallet
007 Goldeneye on 64 is so fun
Yes! I bet I played it for hundreds of hours
Even mario 64 was so good. I'm not into video games at all but those were just fun for everyone.
Most modern video games are trash imo. I took a long break from gaming until I got this 64. It’s so nice being able to just load a game. No updates, no need to connect to WiFi, etc.
Wife and I played Mario party the other day and it was just an absolute blast.
