Oh, so it's not just powerful hardware that can run N64 emulators well. It sounds like even a Vita struggling with 'The World is Not Enough' shows how specific architecture can cause issues. That's a really interesting starting point for this discussion.
Okay, so the big hitters like Mario 64 and Mario Kart 64 are fine, but the 'deeper cuts' are where the problems really start to surface. It makes sense that people might not even realize there are issues if they only play the most popular titles.
Wow, even a 4.2 GHz CPU can't reliably hit 60 FPS with certain plugins? That really puts the challenges for emulation on less powerful devices like the Raspberry Pi 5 into perspective. It's not just about raw clock speed then.

The speaker begins by highlighting a common misconception regarding Nintendo 64 emulation, explaining that while popular titles like *Mario 64* and *Mario Kart 64* [0:30] run well on modern hardware, many other games in the N64 library still exhibit significant emulation issues [0:22]. He uses the example of *The World is Not Enough* on a PlayStation Vita, which runs too fast [0:15], illustrating that even powerful systems struggle with certain N64 titles. This suggests that the complexity of the N64's architecture presents persistent challenges for accurate emulation.
