Out of curiosity, did you have an actual N64 hooked up to a modern TV? A lot of those old games meant to be played on a CRT will look like absolute dog shit on a modern LCD panel. Text is harder to read, it is harder to tell what a shape is supposed to be, it’s really bad.
That’s true, but I didn’t say that was the native “frame rate” of the TVs, just a very commonly used frame rate at the time. And, at least in my experience, desync’ed frame rate and refresh rate is less of a problem on CRTs than LCDs - you don’t “feel” it as much generally.
