Video game:Nintendo 64 Let's Smash - Japanese Edition

Released in 1996 for $199, the Nintendo 64 (often styled N64) became the third home video game console in the Nintendo line. Named for its 64-bit processor, the N64 represented Nintendo's first attempt to create a console with high-quality 3D graphics and strong CGI capabilities. Despite this heavy concentration on graphics, Nintendo continued to use traditional ROM cartridges for its games, instead of the optical discs favorite by its main competitors, the Sony PlayStation and the Sega Saturn. In addition to being more expensive, these cartridges also contained a much smaller amount of memory in comparison to discs, which severely limited the complexity of the games and led several third-party publishers to transfer their business to Sony and Sega. In 1998, Nintendo attempted to compensate for this lack of memory by designing the Expansion Pak accessory, which included an additional 4MB of RAM and allowed designers to enhance their games. Despite these difficulties, gamers still consider the N64 a successful console, mainly because it included many iconic games such as the groundbreaking 3D Super Mario 64, GoldenEye007, and Doom 64. Gamers and developers alike also praised the system for being the first major home console to incorporate pressure-sensing analog joysticks into its controller design. The N64 sold 32 million units worldwide before Nintendo discontinued it in 2003, two years after releasing its successor, the GameCube.

This game, released in Europe as Centre Court Tennis, is part of a large collection of Japanese Nintendo 64 games in The Strong's collection that represent nearly 100% of all games released for that system.
