Sin & Punishment. It was the first N64 game I played (bought a few before owning the system), and the visuals and play mechanics impressed me. It was fun for me then, and I still find it fun now. These days, I guess it is because it triggers a few people on /vr/ for what I see as "no real good reason."

It is heavily flawed and takes tons of bullshit if you wanna do things the right way, but I love the core gameplay and it is actually very enjoyable if you just use the dupe bug to keep alignment under control.

Banjo Kazooie- Great 3d platformer and imaginative and memorable music and characters.
Kirby 64- Personal favorite. Very easy but interesting 2.5d platformer, Music is phenomenal and it's fun to blast through in a afternoon or two.
Smash 64- Best multiplayer on the system in my opinion. Sure the newer ones are "technically" better but 64 still is different enough mechanics wise to differentiate itself.

Thanks, I guess it was a result of a family that constantly forced me to put things back where they belong. Which is why it baffles me how Genesis games can be missing their manuals and cases. Of course now that I am freed from the shackles of family and extended family which were all neat freaks, I live if filth. I really got to get more space because storage of all I have has gotten to be a challenge. I cannot go full emulation at this time, as I enjoy both physical, and emulated.


>>3668530
A favorite between my friends and I are the AKI wrestling games. The later two particularly because running grapples was the added dimension needed, as it is easy to guess a running strike as that was all there was in a running status, but a running grapple made it a 50-50. We would make the most outlandish and stupid created characters, with strange/bizarre backstories, the dumber the better, and it was always a blast with everyone playing.

Mario Golf. The gameplay has some RNG and twitch level controls but there are a lot of courses and characters and the challenge is great for a N64 game. I know it's become a little cliche at this point but I think the music is "comfy", especially the first course with Toad. I dunno, it just feels so relaxing.

Do you play mischief makers using the hori pad?
That d-pad's position looks kind of uncomfortable.
Also, S&P and bangai-O also seem to feel really good on the regular controller. Hori doesn't have the Z trigger, right?

The Hori pad has 2 Z-triggers, one underneath the L the other underneath the R (equivalent to PS1's L2 & R2 buttons). I have standard controllers as well (and a singular Pelican Ultra Racer 64) and those games are better with the standard controller with the larger D-pad. Basically, the rule of thumb (pun sort of intended), if a game primarily used the D-pad, the standard controller is great for me. I just try to use what suits a game best. Also, that image was probably intended for those that just hate on Treasure games, as I said in my eyes for no real good reason (it's fine to have an opinion, as I've admitted to have a hate boner for any Mortal Kombat game, but I do not hate on the people who play it).

This old pic just was originally for stick replacement thread showing the plastic on plastic dust (prior to cleaning). I am still wondering how those steel sticks are turning out.

When you only count console exclusives (not arcade ports, multiplats that got released on PC, etc), I don't see there's that much of a difference.

Rail shooters is one of my favorite genres, and N64 has 2 of my favorites (Sf64 and sin and punishment).
PS1 only has one (Omega Boost) and Saturn has the Panzer Dragoon games (two of them, Saga is an RPG, and PD1 also got released on PC).

I love my Saturn I use it to play a bunch of arcade ports, but I know they're still ports, not Saturn exclusives.

N64 shines because of its exclusives, that you can't even emulate properly most of the times.

That one isn't a collectathon, the structure is more similar to Zelda games, where you get key items, go to dungeons, beat bosses, etc.

Anyway, you don't really get anything extra by getting all the lucky cats other than being able to re-play the Impact battles. It's not like you need those for a secret ending or extra dungeon, or anything like that.

You could say the same thing about the skulltulas on Ocarina of Time, or the chaos emeralds on Sonic games (although in Sonic 3 & K it DOES add an extra level and ending)
