Neither. 3D was a mistake. We should have skipped the N64/PS1 era.
Which console looked better, PS1 graphics when they were at their best or N64 graphics when they were at their best?

Z-buffer having a fit is soul
Muddy blurry textures is soulless

It would have only dragged the framerate even lower. All you could do with the pack was either higher res textures or higher display res doing both gives 10FPS

I feel like PS1 games tried to make textures too detailed, and as a result, they look kind of weird and blurry. N64 games did a better job of having a smoother look

>it also looked better on n64
if by "better," you mean "like smeared soulless shit," then sure.

On a technical level N64 because it could do accurate perspective projection, whereas the PS1 more or less eyeballed it to save calculations and circumvent the missing Z-buffer. That's why in PS1 surfaces seem to jiggle and textures get weirdly warped at odd angles.
However I think the PS1 still had superior visual fidelity. The N64 seems to really struggle with lighting, also I perceive a lot of N64 games rather empty in level detail and on-screen objects, I'm guessing a result of the very limited cartridge storage space.

why does it look so much sharper on 64?

Both pictures are obviously taken from emulators, with the N64 emulator clearly set to render a higher resolution.

If you actually think all that jank on the left picture looks better than the right you suffer from the tism. sorry friend.
