   Nintendo 64 went a step further even by not only coming in even more different colors, but transparency too.
   Anything Gamecube and before was obviously aimed for gamers, from the Wii onwards it was all more "let's get the normalfags into gayming, there's still so many suckers we have yet to milk".
   
   You could easily tell from the type of games on these consoles.
   GC games was all very fun and fruity, N64 games and earlier had significantly higher difficulty levels overal, and with perhaps the exception of Mario Kart and Smash Brothers, anything Wii and later was all nerfed down to housewifes and grannies level.

     Yeah, and then right after that, the Wii was basically just a GameCube with motion controls. And the video quality is slightly lower from what I read, so it's technically inferior, but it also has a proper DVD drive, so the games can be bigger.
     
     But then that sold too well and Nintendo decided "fuck making good consoles, let's just make gimmicky bullshit" and they have been bad ever since. Though the GameCube already had the gimmick of being a cube. Looks very cool, though, not gonna lie. One of the best-looking consoles ever made if you ask me. Also came in so many colors, because colors were a thing back in the day, unlike today.
