Here's a good look at the graphical improvements. It shows you a good comparison of Animal Leader, and how N64-like it really is.
You don't seem to realize that games take time to develop. If a game like say... Mario was in development for 16 months for N64, all it means was they had planned to put it on N64. There's a lot to game development, character design, deciding on the story, level design. Even though games were originally planned to come out on N64 does not mean they look horrible. If it was that way, it wouldn't take this long for ED to be released. But instead, they have the framework down (level layouts, character designs, story), and they have to redo all the textures and graphics.
Halo was originally being developed for Mac, on those old 32MB video cards. No one seems to be bitching now.
