The only things that nintendo really had going for the N64 were the Mario Games, the two Zeldas, Konkey Dong 64, Rareware games, and Smash Bros. That's just about it unless you count any of Treasure's games, one of which never made it to America for god knows what reason. God forbid that the saturn would even do well (although it did have Nights, so that was a plus in a way)
If I had to be realistic Sony pretty much knocked both consoles out of the water since you had way more flexibility with what you could do on the playstation. The only reason why nintendo even did succeed even around this time was because they made so much money off the super nintendo and no one challenged them seriously enough before they fucked over Sony.
I love the Big N but their business practices are literally similar to that of Disney, which I suppose is alright if you are trying to be family friendly and are afraid of a complete crash in the market but it was a stab to the back to many developers who actually learned what could happen if you pulled what Atari and whoever made the Commorade 64 would do.
