The Nintendo 64 is an overrated console that was ruined by the decision to use cartridges rather than CDs. This crippled the system (which would be more powerful than PS1 if it used CDs), and limited its third-party support.
Not sure how unpopular this opinion is. I’ve heard it numerous times.
My sister bought an N64 over a year ago, allowing me to play some of those games again for the first times in years. And yeah, I agree, it’s not as good a system as I remembered it being. The two Zelda games are probably among the only N64 games that actually look good.
