Games, or add ons or whatever it is. What would have made in better in your opinion?
I would say:
-Titles such as Super Mario 64 2 and 3, Final Fight 64, Metroid 64, Double Dragon 64, Earthbound 64, Gradius 64, Final Fantasy 7, Metal Gear Solid 64, Die Hard Arcade, Castlevania Symphony of the Night, Resident Evil 1.
-More Capcom and Konami games and arcade ports in general
-More RRGS and shooters
-More 3rd Party games like you have the on the PS1 and PC - Heart of Darkness, Oddworld, Croc
-Standard rectangular controller pad design that is comfortable
-NIntendo Cd add on
-Improved 64 DD add on with more games and quirky games that took advantage of the tech and released outside of Japan.

7) Put Nintendo 64 in more college areas ( set up booths emphasis 4 player play)And here is a big one, buy Sega and make them an exclusive third party company for Nintendo 64, Nintendo quite have possibly won the war had they done this.
Make moves during the botched Saturn launch but shortly before the American N64 launch. Move all development of games like Sonic and Nights to N64 if possible.
Imagine Sonic Adventure or Sonic xtreme on a N64 in 1999 or Late 98 they would have killed SONY !
You can have the ads look like the book art of the game ( Billboards everywhere in the US and Canada)

I pretty much agree with everything, I think the biggest issue was having a kiddy image as well or just relying on rehashing franchise games in 3d regardless of fun factor or lastability. N64 should have targeted an older audience 16-25. Also their marketing in 1996-1997 was there but it needed to be more consistent and stronger later on. A cd add would have made the most sense.

CDs instead of cartridges
Better games
Less childish marketing

Also a controller that doesn't look like a sex toy and doesn't have plastic parts that crumble like they're made out of crackers

Native CD support (no addon needed) and a better shaped controller like the GameCube's.

Would be cool to create a cd add on and have hombrewers raise money to make really quality games with physical releases like they for the nes and snes. I think there was even a ducktales offical re-release of the nes game a few years ago.

Nintendo got drunk with power and in return Sony ended up defeating them for 5th gen, Honestly if Nintendo didn't piss off Square with
their arrogant attitude we might have had a Final Fantasy 7 spin off on the n64. Nintendo really thought it wouldn't matter if 3rd party
left LMAO just wow.

I think what's more concerning is the fact that Final Fantasy VII was defined heavily by its FMV cutscenes, which wouldn't have been possible on the N64. The game was so big it was split on three discs.

IMO, I'd see the absolute number one thing would be third-party titles. Not only did the N64 not have very many third-party titles, but the ones it did have were mostly terrible. Quest 64, Superman 64, and Daikatana are among the worst video games ever made.
