Demo of megatextures running on n64 hardware
Check the link, the video, or the title. This is all running on real hardware.

Smooth running video

does 60 fps on emulator. Real hardware video shows 15-20fps in a small room and author himself confirms its unfeasible for anything more complicated (~8 minute mark).

15-20fps is a pretty normal framerate for many games on the real Nintendo 64 hardware, especially the later ones from Rare.

The PAL versions of Zelda ran at 15-20FPS even on emulators in the PC. Yet they were pretty playable.

It probably looked not as bad on a CRT since LCD and OLED have terrible motion resolution. See

I emulated it back in the day on a CRT monitor, true.
