The Nintendo 64 was the first Nintendo system that I didn't own until many years later, so I never played it when it first came out. I've played the game a few times, but never more than a few minutes. Yesterday, I played the game on 3D All Stars for longer than any time before, but it was still only about 30 minutes. I'm not sure that I can give it an official score, but I think it's fair to say that I would have loved this game if I played it when it was brand new, but if I play in completely for the first time this year, I'm going to think it's just ok. Some of the issues like the camera or controls would have been much easier to forgive when the game was new and I had little experience with 3D games. But it's hard to ignore that stuff when playing it for the first time after many years of 3D gaming.
