"the Nintendo 64 whas 64 bit cause it had 2 32 bit CPUs."

That was Atari Jaguar.

IIRC, Nintendo used MIPS CPU core (most likely 32bit) and 64bit GPU.

@downix

I stand corrected.

so ... with Atari logic we could call A1 with G4 as a 128bit computer because of Altivec, unless the GFX card has 256bit parts. ;-)

But anyway. Nintendo64 seems to be the first real 64bit console.
