I just got done finished with:

Mischief makers
Gauntlet legends
Chameleon Twist

I'm sorry Anon, but the fun will come to an end.

I forgot about Body Harvest, and Bomberman Hero is pretty great too but often ignored since no multiplayer mode.

>Silicon Valley

Oh god yes, this game was absolutely amazing. I haven't seen any game with such gameplay ever since.

Jet force gemini is a great game

[Anonymous No.2221907]

The problem with n64 is the amount of sports and racing titles leave little hidden gems at all. The library itself is also on the small side.

[Anonymous No.2221923]

>>2221907

There's still always games people tend to miss or that didn't play because they were not released in their region.

[Anonymous No.2222038]

Bomberman Hero
and Bomberman 64

are both great
But they are TOTALLY different kind of games
so you could like one and not the other

also, buck bumble isnt bad

[Anonymous No.2222045]

Just get a PS1.

Seriously though, Sin and Punishment, Beetle racing.

Pilotwings 64 had such a lasting impression on me when I first played it. I don't know if it would pack as much of a punch now, but dear god do I ever love this game. This music hits me in the nostalgia feels every single time.

Seconded

[Anonymous No.2222070]

Only play the SD mode though.

Nobody gives a shit about the realistic mode.

I am playing through it now. The beginning is the most repetitive, boring and uninspiring thing I have played.

I can't believe this is a Kojima-game.

[Anonymous No.2222082]

>>2222046

That's not a lesser known N64 game, it was the 2nd game released in the west after Super Mario 64, and Pilotwings is also a rather known Nintendo franchise.

But yeah, PW64 was amazing.

I loved it as a kid because back in 1996, these graphics and freedom was incredible, but I actually enjoyed the game a lot more as an adult, as a kid I never bothered to get gold in all missions and never unlocked the most fun extra missions.

[Anonymous No.2222089]

The beginning kind of sucks, game picks up when you start learning more moves and suplexes.

>Kojima-game.

It's not, it just has some people who worked on Snatcher, but Kojima wasn't involved.

Tip: don't play it for the story, play it for the battle system.
Get a friend who wants to play VS mode with you, shit is fun.

I remeber this gettin a pretty crappy rating in the N64 magazines.

[Anonymous No.2222157]

>>2222151

Probably because it wasn't THREE DEEEE, remember a lot of games got panned because of not being 3D on the latter half of the 90s.

It's a fun wacky fighting game.

[Anonymous No.2222160]

I can't recall if it was as good as I remember it, but I liked Buck Bumble. A foggy game, but fun.

Shadow Man was on the N64, but I would recommend you play the PC version on GOG if you can't find it as easily on N64.

[Anonymous No.2222298]

>>2222273
DC version is the best

[Anonymous No.2222415]

>>2222298
It's similar to PC, but yeah the N64 version is really well made. All versions are good except for the PS1 version. Think of the laggiest most awful frame rate in any N64 game you can think of. Then halve that and you've got PS1 Shadowman.

Quest 64 and Aidyn Chronicles are some decent rpgs, the latter is pretty hard to get into though

[Anonymous No.2224726]

>>2223062

quest 64 is a horrible game, avoid

[Anonymous No.2224728]

Harvest Moon 64 is popular but pricey. It's the best HM though

[Anonymous No.2225008]

Not as good as the other Star Solider games, but still enjoyable. Also one of the only three shoot 'em ups on the console.

[Anonymous No.2225073]

>>2224726
No, Quest 64 is a rushed game with some cool concepts and good folk style music.

[Anonymous No.2225094]

Command and Conquer 64 is a pretty good game

[Anonymous No.2226529]

This game is in my opinion the best hidden gem on the console.

[Anonymous No.2227398]

Robotron 64 is just intense and is far superior to the ps1 version.

Tetrisphere has an amazing soundtrack and is a good game to boot. Here, have a listen:
