Hello, I'm Sanjeev Mansotra so getting into game development in C, and I really want to make an RPG, but I can't decide to either make it on the N64 or the GBA. I like the N64 graphics, but the GBA is easier to make, and I could also make a 3D game on the GBA (it just won't look amazing). I would like other people's opinions on this to see what you guys think about this. Please no hate, thank you!
