A few things set the Nintendo 64 apart from its competition when it launched. As the name implies, it had a 64-bit CPU, while the Playstation and Saturn were 32-bit consoles. The practical differences are debatable, but the bigger number helped position the Nintendo 64 as a superior system from a marketing perspective. It also came in a variety of colors, and later went on to introduce the first force feedback device for home gaming consoles in the form of the Rumble Pak (per Goomba Stomp). Additionally, it was the only one of the three systems to support four players, making for a more social — and arguably memorable — gaming experience.
Regarding the games themselves, what the Nintendo 64 lacked in quantity it later made up for in quality. Titles including “The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time,” “GoldenEye 007,” and “Super Smash Bros.” are widely regarded as some of the most enduring and influential games of all time.
All that being said, collecting coins to the tune of $250,000 is a heady prospect. Is an original Nintendo 64 really worth 1,250 times its original price? So far, that’s only the asking price; no one has Yoshied up yet. And with more than 20 classic titles available for a $49.99 Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack annual membership along with rereleases of the iconic controllers, it might be a cold day in the Mushroom Kingdom before this listing sells. For most people, your Nintendo 64 is in another castle.
