>>813519
this right here OP

Mischief Makers

Star Fox 64

after emulating it i'd say conker's bad fur day

>>813519

Virtual Pro Wrestling 2

>>814039
I found this at the thrift for $2 this weekend. Never played it before.

>>814027
What's the one under Duke Nukem 64 and to the left of F-Zero? Can't read the title.

>>814108
Fighter's Destiny

Paper Mario

>>814030

I agree

Ocarina of time fuckface

Blast Corps

superman

Super Smash Brothers.

N-64 hardly has any good games though. Hence why I opted for a PS1 despite being a nintendo fan.

Sin and Punishment
Mischief Makers
Bakuretsu Muteki Bangai-O

>>814152
nice try jerk off
'N-64' especially gave you away the most

>>814039
This right here.

SHAKE SHAKE all night long.

>>814078
Good job, you just bought yourself a $2 party.

That I played:
>OOT
>Pokemon Snap
>Smash Bros.
>Super Mario 64
>Kirby 64
>NFL Blitz
>Rogue Squadron
>Destruction Derby
>Pokemon Stadium 1 & 2
>Goldeneye

>>814409
Also I forgot Pod Racers. That game was the shit.

>>814152
>N-64

There's just no other game that gives me those levels of coziness and FUN.

Still play trough it atleast once a year, and I still love it everytime

Single Player:
OoT/MM
Harvest Moon 64
Banjo Kazooie/Tooie

4 Player:
Mario Kart 64
Super Smash Bros.
Mario Party 2>3>1
Mario Tennis

Just a few off the top of my head and I didn't want to put 2 player games.

Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon

>>814027
you know, we should start make our own of these rather than just re-use the old /v/ ones

>>814429
How would it be any different?

Also Bomberman 64

Banjo Kazooie or Paper Mario

Pokemon Snap is a FANTASTIC N64 game, and possibly the best game in the series

>>814504
that would be true if it had all 151 and been longer than 25 minutes...

>Mario 64
>Rayman 2
>Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon
Would be the three games I'd pick if I had to give up all my N64 games bar three.

The single best N64 game is Perfect Dark. No if ands or buts. There are plenty of other god-tier games, but none are as content packed and polished and mindrapingly awesome as Perfect Dark.

n64 was a worse console than the xbox one will be

>>815594
You're just a sourpuss.

>>815602
and you have no taste in vidya if you're defending either console.

>gb2 gamestop

>>815628
You have no taste in vidya if you don't recognise that Rareware were the best game developer in the entire United Kingdom.

>>815636
>defending the people who made Banjo nutz n bolts

anon confirmed for permanent nostalgia goggles.

>>814114
This.

>>815641
Except he said "were" >>815636 He didn't say they ARE still the greatest. That said, they might be working on something awesome. Who knows? If only ONE Rareware employee is working on the new Killer Instinct, what are the rest working on?

Oh, and Nuts and Bolts is a damn fine game.

>>815587

It looks nice on an emulator in that screenshot but the original cartridge version was a mess of blurry textures and low framerates. Goldeneye was just more fun to play.

>>815651
>mess of blurry textures and low framerates
Goldeneye had much lower texture quality.
And the framerate was actually lower.

>Goldeneye was just more fun to play.
I guess I can't argue with opinion. But GE was a very shallow game compared to PD. Perfect Dark has a much stronger story, and it actually tells the story. Goldeneye's story is a paper thin retread of the movie.

Also, Perfect Dark has all of GE's best multiplayer maps, and all of GE's best weapons included as bonuses.

>>815676
If I cared about story I'd read a book.

>>815685
That proves you have no taste in vidya. I bet you play games for the multiplayer, too.

>>815696

What's wrong with playing a game for the multiplayer? That was the best part of Goldeneye as well as Perfect Dark.

>>815696
Well obviously. Humans are far more interesting opponents than even the best AI.

>>815727
Goldeneye's multiplayer was tacked on in 6 weeks.

Rareware didn't make multiplayer games. They made singleplayer games with multiplayer tacked on.

They didn't delay Perfect Dark for ages, they didn't rebuild the entire game from the ground up after 1998... just for multiplayer.

Perfect Dark is a singleplayer, story-driven FPS. With multiplayer features. Multiplayer should always be secondary.

The only appropriate answer is Ogre Battle 64.

>>815727
>What's wrong with playing a game for the multiplayer?
The best part of Perfect Dark's multiplayer is the fact you can play the singleplayer campaign cooperatively.

>>815743

Maybe so, but I fondly remember them because of the fun times I had playing deathmatch with friends, not because of the rich, interesting stories.

>>815727
>what's wrong with playing a game for the multiplayer.

You're the reason theres been 15 goddamn Modern Warfare games. Thanks for ruining the industry faggot.

>>815743
Good guideline, but by no means absolute.

>>815764
This sounds like the complaint of someone with no friends.

>>815767
That's one of the reasons, unfortunately, people talk about Perfect Dark "aging badly". They judge it's multiplayer against Call of Duty. There are people who never even finished the singleplayer. (Just as there are people who never played the singleplayer in the Call of Duty games.)

I appreciate that you enjoyed the multiplayer, but it wasn't the focus of the game. And I think the overemphasis on it reflects badly on the mindset of modern gaming.

>>815789

That's all well and good that you enjoyed the single player but I also think it's wrong and pretentious to try to tell people how they should be enjoying a piece of entertainment.

>>815798
I enjoyed both. All the game had to offer.

If I see someone using a block of platinum as a doorstop, I'm obliged to point out they're grossly underappreciating said block of platinum.

>>815806
Except platinum is a precious metal with purely measurable value as opposed to the impossible-to-measure subjective value of a piece of creative expression. But sure, whatever. I won't say I don't get your point, but you should still be less pretentious about stating it. And get a better analogy.

>>814027

Do people agree with this list?

I mean, as anyone else actually played Glover? The only thing I enjoyed about it was you could mash the c-buttons and it make fart noises but I don't know how well that has aged.

..actually that's really the only game that stands out for me I guess. I just really hate Glover.

Probably the Banjos.
Back then they cared about soundtracks.

Stop making best-of threads. They just divulge into utter shite everytime

>>813519
Battletanx: Global Asssault

>>815676
GE had much better and more satisfying gunplay. It was more shallow overall compared to PD, but nothing PD had to offer really went above and beyond... It was just overall a really good package. But if you just wanna gun down a bunch of dudes, GE is miles ahead. For everything else, well... PD isn't really the best cyberpunk narrative-driven stealth/action game out there...

Still, it was a great game.

>>815757
>cooperatively.

Nigger, all the fun of that game was COUNTERoperative mode.

>mfw cramming down suicide pills and seeing if my friend can finish the level before everyone dies off

>>814023
take your shitposting back to /v/

>>815743
>story driven videogames: ruining first person shooters, since the 90's!

>>818332
It's true, though. Less focus on action and gunplay made Perfect Dark a slightly less enjoyable (but more substantial) game than Goldeneye. I would say Perfect Dark is more accessible nowadays, though, because a lot of people might have trouble adapting to the controls if they've never played an N64 shooter.

Even when it came out, it wasn't particularly as well-received as people would expect, especially when compared to Goldeneye.

Bomberman hero. Fuck yourselves.

Am I the only one who LOVES the low-poly models, blurry textures and flat shading of the N64? I kind of wish someone would make a game that intentionally emulates that look.

>>814432
it wouldn't have the stigma of /v/ attached to it

Majora's Mask
Jet force Gemini
Banjo tooie

Those are 3 I couldn't live without. Also pokemon stadium 2

Harvest Moon 64. HM is probably my most played series. The stress and planning is relaxing.

>to play alone
Banjo-Kazooie & SM64

>to play with friends
Goldeneye & Mario Party 2

>>816060
I'd put Mario Party 3 too.

Perfect Dark or Paper Mario.
Jet Force Gemini and Rogue Squadron are runner ups

>>816620
I'd have to disagree. I feel PD built upon GE and improved a great game and made it an even better game. Technologically, I'd say PD was very impressive by N64 standards, although it was released late into the console's life, Gameplay, it great guns with awesome secondary effects. Although the story wasn't spectacular, it was still fun to play through

Superman 64

>>815594
The xbox one dropped all of it's DRM and is now Region Free. It's not going to be the worst console ever, but it also won't be better than the PS4. Source:

Also,
>calling the N64 the worst console ever without anything to back your claim up

Sage for mostly off topic

Bump

Paper Mario and the Star Wars racing game

>>819608
And that post was made before the Xbone did any of that you stupid goon.

>>813572
Hey that game was fun

Super Mario 64, Kirby 64, Banjo Kazooie/Tooie, OOT, Majora's Mask, I honestly can't choose one.

>>813572
Not the best, but I think it's the most underrated

>>819681
You're talking about that one star wars racing game where the engines took damage, right? Kind of want to replay that now.

>>820146
Star Wars Episode 1: Racer. Amazing game, technologically, and was the first Factor 5 game for the N64, IIRC. It's also the only Factor 5 game we can emulate properly.

It does have a less than stellar framerate, IIRC, of about 22fps or something. Running it on an emulator with CF1, it runs at 60fps, which is nice.

But yea, amazing game. Real sense of speed, and a good job capturing the atmosphere of the (less than well recieved) film.

>any rare game
>any mario game
>f-zero x

>>814156
pay this man more attention, damnit

Conker's Bad Fur Day

>>814156
I've never heard of Bakuretsu Muteki Bangai-O,
it looks pretty cool and I'm going to play it this evening.

Ty based recommendation.

>>815648
As its own game, sure.
As a Banjo Kazooie sequel, absolutely not.

>>815648
>Oh, and Nuts and Bolts is a damn fine game.

Hey, go fuck yourself.
inb4 >back to /v/ faggotry
We all know you're full of shit.

>>822042
As a videogame, Nuts and Bolts is very good. It's *different* to the old Banjo games, but that doesn't make it bad. It's a change in genres, basically.

This is the same dispute people have with the "Old Resident Evil is better than new Resident Evil." The newer games are a different genre. So you're entitled not to like them. But that doesn't mean they're shitty games.

Paper Mario, hell it's my favorite game in general

Star Fax 64

GOEMON

Superman 64

>>822178
My nignog. You know, I just realized the other day how great the multiplayer is also. Played for hours with my pals. Fun times.

i could play goldeneye until the end of time

oot

>>825462
dont forget perfect dark

Conker's Bad Fur Day.

Absolutely incredible multiplayer and a long, funny and enjoyable single player story.

Seriously there are more modes in Conker's multiplayer than in basically any other game.

Heist was GOAT, although War, Deathmatch and Raptor were fun as fuck as well.

Tanks was cool but a little repetitive and Beach was pretty bad.

i'd say hybrid heaven or perfect dark

>>814030
I like the first one more because nostalgia, but I agree in terms of gameplay and mechanics that this one is much more polished.

>>815746
You sir are a gentleman and a scholar, and deffinitely my nigga

and just like that, i'm mad as fuck

i will never buy anything from microsoft again.

Well, it's not an exclusive but I had the best of times playing Gauntlet Legends.

Snowboard Kids comes in at a close second for me.

There's a disturbing lack of Paper Mario here
Here's a little somthing to give you a nostalgia boner

That's fucking sad as shit
So all the things that L.O.G. was saying in the game was actually just the same shit they had to put up with from the reps

well to be fair, Luigi's Mansion was in development at that time. hence the easter egg with his diary in the hidden room under the house in Paper Mario.

>>814030
ma nigga

>>827191
Because OP clearly asked for "best N64 game"

>>814027

these lists are never good

we need a general recommendation thread stickied

at least when someone posts you know if that particular person knows what he is talking about based on what he says

at least for the duration of that particular post

Goldeneye, followed closely by Perfect Dark.

golden eye of course lol
