According to all the game publishers, at least in that console generation... I'm sure that a lot of the titles that were PSX-and-PC only were also considered "PSX exclusive" even though they really weren't... (Megaman X5, Future Cop LAPD, Need for Speed III/High Stakes, etc...)
Now, you are kind of right... I think Rogue Squardron 3D (the PC version's name) came out a few months after the N64 one, in a 'limited exclusivity' thing, but it still was certainly called "N64 exclusive" by Nintendo, on the N64 version box, etc.
Now, I know -- that's all just marketing-speak. Like how GBA ports of SNES games get "Only for GBA" logos on them because there was some minimal change to the title... it's just to get people to think that the game can only be found on that platform (and thus buy it!) -- even if that's just not really true.
