Why Did N64 Graphics Look Stretched and Blurry?
Something I failed to mention about Mipmapping is that it is primarily used for reducing noise in the scene because of the averaging that is done between points, so it smooths out the image.
Limited ROM space for lack of detailed textures was the main cause along with the 4 kB texture cache.
Nintendo painted themselves into a corner with this and the choice of cartridges.
