Yeah, Nintendo's biggest strength has always been the quality of their first-party (and Monolith) games, but never their graphical fidelity. They focus on good games that are fun to play, and I appreciate that, but they have a hard time drawing in AAA third party devs.

Nintendo 64 had quite remarkable graphical fidelity compared to PS and Saturn. It was the only console at the time that used floating point math for 3D calculations (that’s why Playstation got the wobbly look).
