seriously, the last game that came out that i could give a damn about was mario galaxy, where the hell are the good games?
Dang the last game I cared about was SMB3! I want to know where all the good games have been for the last two decades! I feel your pain.
Where have all the good games gone? They have passed into shadow...

I'd say the leap to 3-D gaming is what killed the good games.
But Mario & Luigi's RPG series remains one exception. But that's just because they are NOT 3-D.

Super Mario Galaxy is what dreams are made of.
NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams is what Sega of Japan's greed is made of, hur hur =3

The best 3D adventure game -- no, the best 3D game -- no, the best game period of the past two decades is Superman 64. Nothing since has been more epic.

Lex Luthor's diabolical kryptonite fog was the pinnacle of storytelling in gaming. Followed only by forcing Superman to fly through rings in order to save the world. Brilliant. I must nominate that game for the Retro gaming feature on RFN!

Yes, Superman 64 is definitely worthy of a topic of discussion for any retroactive feature. Few seem to realize that this game's excellence has yet to be matched, much less surpassed.
It's metaphoric fog can be interpreted in many ways. It could represent Superman's isolation from society. It could mean Superman is really near-sighted. Or perhaps, it could simply be due to the burrito that Superman had eaten; this would explain why the fog is worse indoors. No ventilation.
It also contains all of the elements which make a good game: -Blurred or non-existent textures -NES-quality music -Unclear level goals -Enemies can attack you during cutscenes -An X-Ray Vision powerup which does absolutely nothing, as X-Ray Vision would be too awesome for most people to handle. -Tacked-on first-person shooter multiplayer mode that always ends with all players getting face-to-face and mashing the "Z" button until there's only one player left.
This game is truly epic and worthy of every accolade it receives.

That sounds like a game UbiSoft would make.

You probably haven't heard of Superman 64's multiplayer mode because nobody (besides me) has ever turned to their friends and said "Hey let's all play Superman 64!" Much less could they say it with a straight face. If anything has ever been deserving of being labeled with "epic phail", it is Superman 64's multiplayer.

No Nintendo 64 game has found its way onto Virtual Console yet.

Well, before Cruis'n USA was released I would have said that only the N64 games which were at least decent would be released on the VC... but now, who knows. Superman 64 wasn't published by Nintendo though, so it seems pretty doubtful that it will be released.
