Depends on what kind of games you like. If you like sports game then the best in my opinion is International Superstar Soccer.... there are 3 of them: International Superstar Soccer (the first and most arcade like, lots of goals), ISS '98 (probably the most preferred, more realistic scoring but still fast paced), ISS 2000 (very hard to find the North American version, but the Euro version is pretty common I think... has the most teams and is the most realistic of the 3 but the slower pace turns off some people).... I have spent many hours on all 3 and I like ISS 2000 the best mostly because it has 100 teams and scoring is the most realistic. But I would recommend ISS '98 to most people, or the first one if you like your sports games high scoring/arcade like.If you like fighting games then you can't go wrong with WWF No Mercy. Lots of characters and you can fight in other places besides the ring. WWF Wrestlemania 2000 and WCW/NWO Revenge are also very good (made by the same company, AKI).If you like racing games, World Driver Championship is really deep (as well as frustrating, especially at first). If you fight through the difficult control learning curve you will be rewarded with plenty of hours of good racing. Just keep in mind that this is as realistic as racing gets on the N64, so one crash will kill your chances for 1st place. Another good racing game that many people probably skipped is Beetle Adventure Racing. This is your more typical arcade type N64 racer at first glance, with the main exception that the courses offer hidding paths at tokens that are fun to look for. Not a very long game, but I bet you could find it for 5 bucks, definately worth that.If you are into strategy/sim games and don't mind a slow pace then Harvest Moon 64 is great. Its a hate/love type of game though. If farming and daily chores don't sound fun to you then no way you would like it. I need some good 64 games
Jet Force Gemini was an under the radar hit, it could be pretty hard to come by though. Banjo Kazooie and Conker's Bad Fur Day were great platformers. (not sure if they were praised as god as you say) To reinforce PopeReal's recs I will say N64 wrestlers are a lot of fun especially with three friends and I've enjoyed every Harvest Moon game that I've played.
Definitely get Ogre Battle 64 if you can find it. I miss OB games, especially the gameplay style.
the first Mario Party was great, Conker's Bad Fur Day, either Legend of Zelda, Beetle Adventure Racing... and I guess people liked Golden Eye (I hated that F'n game)
One that comes to my mind is Paper Mario,that's a pretty good rpg.
San Francisco Rush 2049Vigilante 8 or Vigilante 2nd Offense both are funKiller Instinct GoldMario Party 3NFL Blitz 2000Mortal Kombat 4 Wave Race 64Duke Nukem 64Hydro Thunder
Paper Mario is must get also you should get Winback. Winback is such a gem and it is one of my favorite N64 games .
Battletoads?
I have some good recommendation games from my [url=http://www.gamespot.com/users/ArmoredCore55/games_table?platform=4%26user=ArmoredCore55%26mode=own]collection[/url].
Banjo-Kazooie, Banjo-Tooie, Battle Tanx Global Assault, Super Mario 64, Diddy Kong Racing, Super Smash Bros.
Last I knew Jet Force Gemini was actually pretty easy to find. I think I bought mine for like $7 a couple years ago and there was another one right next to it, so unless the situation's changed a lot since then it's pretty common and cheap. Anyway, here's some of my favorite 64 games that aren't extremely popular:Body Harvest (DMA Design made it, it's sort of like an early 3D GTA but with aliens instead of gangsters) Wetrix (awesome puzzle game about building dams, basically. Good sequel called Aqua Aqua too, but I dunno if it was on 64 or just Dreamcast)Armorines: Project S.W.A.R.M. (very underrated [IMO] first person shooter about bug aliens)
I'll look at some of these games and try to pick them up. I won't be big on multi-player games though because my friends are graphic *****s.
PERFECT DARK!!, goldeneye, turok 2, quake 1 (not 2), doom, super mario 64, the legend of zelda: ocarina of time (and majoras mask to some extent) get at least a few of these, even i still play these occasionally, great games
Oh my gosh, everytime I see a thread like this I grab my box full of N64 games and list them all off, however I'm always too late and they've all already been named... lol
Pokemon Snap.
Seriously.
they say mario kart 64 is the best kart....i would say goldeneye if you have not played it. zelda, mario 64, banjoo-kazooie and bad fur day are a must. you can search gamespot and ign for N64 games, and research them by top rated. This is why i love these two sites, they are archives of gaming!i only played it briefly, but star fox 64 seemed great. Some games you can purchase on wii, but u dont get to use 64 controller
Space Station Silicon Valley
[QUOTE=''a-c-slater'']I already have most of the ones hailed as god. [/QUOTE]So I take it you already have Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time :PGet Majora's Mask, a lot of people will be quick to slate it but it's a cracking game.
