Developed a long while after the Super NES, it provided great improvements in every aspect of the machine. First of all, it provieded more than a pixilated mario in a 2-D world jumping on stuff, but hundreds of thousands of 3-D polygons on a good looking evironment. The Nintendo 64 was a huge hit, but due to the realease of NGC, it isnt as popular anymore.
