+It unfortunately was outsold by the Playstation during its lifespan, to which many cite the use of cartridge-based media as opposed to the Playstation's CD-based media as a contributing factor (CDs meant that games could be much larger in filesize; Nintendo 64 games, in comparison, often had to strip out things such as audio and FMVs to conserve space). Despite this, over time it has been proven to be the most well-remembered of consoles of the generation. Many of the Nintendo 64's games reached "Best of All Time" lists, and some were also remade on newer systems like the Nintendo DS, 3DS, and [[Wii]].
