Got myself a big ass TV with s-video for my n64, so I'm looking for essential 2D games. Got any favorites? I already have Mischief Makers.

Flashcart + XRGB

I think you already have all the essential 2D games for N64

Disregard that man. Flashcart + UltraHDMI. VI De-blur feature single-handedly makes N64 video tolerable.

Paper Mario?
Kirby 64 is 2.5D.

Just stick with the S-Video cables, don't go down the autism hole with the expensive ass upscalers and mods. The N64 really doesn't have many good 2D games... Mischief Makers was the only one I was going to recommend you.

S-video is good enough for me

Yoshi's Story, anyone?
Granted, the game isn't that much loved because of its weird design direction and the fact it's different from the favorite Yoshi's Island, but if you want 2D eye candy, Yoshi's Story does the job.

Rakuga Kids is another one I'd recommend although it's JP/EU only.
The game is a 2D fighting game made by Konami and the characters all have an insane amount of animation frames that at some point makes me think of something like Darkstalkers in terms of animations and how bizarre some enemies can get with their attacks.

Some others that are japan-only:
Bakuretsu Buteki Bangai-O (this one is rather well known for being a Treasure game, hella fun)
Wonder Project J2 (sort of raising sim/RPG hybrid with beautiful 2D animations and big sprites)
Getter Love (a mix of dating sim and party game, by Hudson)
Super Robot Wars 64 (just another entry in the prolific SRW series, this one is exclusive to N64)
Zool - Majou Tsukai Densetsu (monster-catching RPG similar to Dragon Quest Monsters)

There's probably more but that's what I can remember now.

Ogre Battle 64's sprites are 2D but a lot of the backgrounds are 3D. Might give that a shot.
