Ps1 or the N64?

I feel like the PS1 had games in genres which are more popular today. PS1 was experimenting with ideas which would evolve into the more refined experiences we have today. A lot more variety came from that system.

Having said that, one could say the PS1 has aged poorly due to the years of improvement on the formulas the ps1 presented. In contrast, the genres most popular on the n64 have not aged as much in current-gen times. I'm talking specifically about platform games, zelda-like games, beat-em ups, kart racers, and party games.

I think ps1 was the better system, but the n64 has not aged as poorly.

Don't forget that the N64 pretty much dominated the FPS market, which has to be the most popular genre of today.

The only FPS I remember being anywhere near Turok, Golden eye, The world is not enough, and Perfect Dark was Medal of Honor. I'm pretty sure N64 had the doom and Quake games too anyway.

nintendo 64

but n64 all the way better graphics multiplayer games etc etc

I own both and I prefer PS1. But I'm an rpg guy, and that thing was an rpg hit machine.
