I had bad luck with N64s. I had three and each never lasted more than a year. I loved them, but they didn't love me back :(
I was actually never much of a fan of the N64. I think it was sort of a generational thing, and there's a specific age when you bond with a system. For me, it was 1995 with Super NES. I actually wrote "N64 sucks" on my old SNES in big letters with a marker.
I was stoked about the 64 in the beginning. I got to play one at a netcafe before it had been released to the public, but then everyone got one, and it became less of an amazing thing. I remember staying up all night eating Warheads and trying to beat Shadows Of The Empire, which was totally kickass.
The launch titles were all pretty sweet, but I think after Perfect Dark (which I never even played, I've just heard good stuff) it all sort of went downhill. I mean, Donkey Kong 64? Barf. Of course, it was around this time I discovered Metal Gear Solid, and that was an amazing thing.
Regardless, I respect that people have a lot of love for the system. If I'd been two years younger when it dropped, I'd feel the same way.
