I'll put this as simply as possible.

If you're a fan of Multiplayer then N64 wins hands down.

If you prefer Single player then PS has a slight edge.

Let me explain.

N64 doesn't take time to load, has the best mulitplayer games around, easily allows four players without a multitap and the PS1 doesn't have any 4 player games nearly as fun.

I know that the N64 has hundreds of first class single player games but the Playstation has even more.

Because CD's are bigger than carts, the PS has the bigger adventure games. Final Fantasy and MGS are exclusive to the Playstation for instance. The laoding times aren't such a pain while on a single player advaenture either.
Despite N64's Zelda games and a few others being untouchable in single player, the PS has a wider range in that area.

BUT, with there only being a small difference between them single player wise and the N64 being miles ahead in the multiplayer arena, I'd say that the N64 is the best alrounder. You might think differently but:

They are both great in their own little ways!
