Bad fur day, and Rare should seriously look into a sequel.

Other than the viva pinata series, (which is awesome btw) I don't really think rare is doing to well on the game side of things. I mean the new banjo looks like crap. So come on conker!

GAAAH!!
Tough choice! Have to stick with OoT though...

I really enjoyed Star Wars Rogue Squadron I have to say. I'd never played Goldeneye till about 3 weeks ago when my flatmate traded in his old PS2 for an N64 and by crikey is it still a fantastic game!

No Winback: Covert Ops? curse you.

How could not list the WCW/Nitro or WCW Mayhem or Wrestlemania 20 games (any of those from Aki/THQ)?

Clearly a flawed poll.

Without a doubt Super Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time comes second.

Super Mario 64 Because it was the only one of those that I ever finished and it defined all gaming for me until I discovered RPGs.

Oh man, Goldeneye. A few weeks ago I was jonesing so hard for some goldeneye i downloaded it and put it on an emulator and played it with halo controls. one of my favorite gaming experiences of all time.

EzraPound:
Great games. Great console. Take your pick.

I go for Super Mario 64. It's just perfect.

Banjo Kazooi ftw, i had so much fun with that game

Mario Kart, Loz: OoT, Star fox, and Super Smash Bros

DK 64 or Banjo tooie

There was only one game I ever really cared about on the N64- that was Goldeneye. I beat OoT recently, and also have flown through Star Fox 64- both were good- but none were as solid as Goldeneye. Slightly off topic, have they made a better Bond game yet?

A little known gem called Adian Chronicles: First Mage.

i chose super mario 64 (i just played it alot back then)

TheGreenManalishi:
I voted for SM64 because it makes me melt into a puddle of pure ecstasy just to pull his nose at the title screen.
Perfect dark is better than GoldenEye IMO. Better guns, more immersive story and a better lead character.

I love ALL N64 games because they are big carts. Nothing better than a big cart. Much better than a big disc like everyone seems to cram into their fanboy arses these days for three reasons.

1. A cart can take a beating and STILL be as good as before you droppoed it down the stairs.
2. You can save onto a cart. You need nothing but the console, a controller, a game and the TV
3. Easier to wipe fecal matter off a cart

1. Blu-ray discs are supposedly "scratch-proof". I wouldn't go out of my way to test that claim, but my 1-year-old decided to test his teeth against a disc and scraped off the label side. It still works fine whereas if you did that on a DVD chances are the disc would be ruined.

2. Yes, although even back in the day the N64 had memory packs - but your point of course stands.

3. I don't even want to know how you get fecal matter on your cartridges. I'm not that curious. :)

By the way, is that the Fleetwood Mac or the Judas Priest version of The Green Manalishi you are adopting as your username?

sophtswitch:
Blast Corps was a game and a half. Went for Goldeneye because I had so many good times with friends playing that. Banjo-Kazooie is a classic too, shame the new one doesn't sound like it's up to scratch.

Pilotwings was another amazing game. Top background music too.

And I played Donkey Kong til my hands got RSI.... not really but I did play it a lot

I love Pilotwings (where's the sequel, Nintendo? Seriously now!) but I don't recall playing it nearly as much as the SNES version. It might have been due to the fact I had to rent the game at the local Blockbuster's back in the day (it was hard to find any N64 games where I lived back then), but my memories are still firmly planted with the 2D version.

I missed the chance to play Donkey Kong, as I left the country and regaled my N64 to my brother-in-law just before the game was released. Checking on metacritic it received stellar reviews. Unfortunately I doubt I will ever have the chance to play it again, seeing that it's a RARE game and I highly doubt it would ever make its way to the virtual console.

Samurai Goomba:
Banjo-Kazooie. It's just that good.

I agree wholeheartedly.

OoT is a very close second, Mario 64 an even closer third.

Jet Force Gemini.

man i can't even whittle it down to 1

zelda OOT and....perfect dark (runs)

goldeneye is king, i know that, but PD trumped it in terms of single player mode, co op, COUNTER OP (i mean jesus man no other game has ever done this and to my knowledge still hasn't) and a robust optioned multiplayer mode, not to mention great characters. PD is defo one of the best games ive played full stop.

P.S i know it's been said, but yeah, lylat wars man, again one of the best games ive played, just incredible and i have never gotten tired of its single player mode, its amazing (so now i guess it has turned into my top three lol)

P.P.S some may slay me for this, but i never played Majora's Mask (runs again)

It really depends on the situation the game is played in. When it was the top console, I would have to say that Ocarina of Time or Paper Mario was the one that got the most play time on my 64. Now, however, whenever my more casual gaming friend pulls out his 64 every once in a while, we absolutely love playing Blitz 2001 (only football game we've ever thought about playing), Mario Tennis (both Tennis players), and super smash bros the first one.

Edit: Come to think of it, I think I played pokemon puzzle league (was absolutely unbelievable at that game, I played it so much!) more than OoT and Paper Mario combined...it was scary how addicting it was.

Meh, it's pretty overrated... just a strong, competent "find-a-bazillion-items" 3D platformer, the likes of which is widely available on the PS2 or Gamecube, except bettter.

nev0r.

PilotWings with the Wiimote would be really, really fun.

I CALL NO ODDJOB!!!

Haha, yeah. I think later the rule was broadened because there was a short Moonraker Elite.

Jet Force Gemini and I will not hear otherwise.

Voted Goldeneye because it got me into FPSers.

I prefer DK64 or Banjo-Kazooie/Tooie, those games were perfect.

Bad Fur Day for sure. Ive beaten this game so many times along with the one for xbox and each time it gets better and better.

I loved Majora's Mask, personally. The sheer amount of content that game contained amazed me, even when I go back and play it today. The time mechanics were unique (to my knowledge), and the game was significantly harder than its brethren (though still not that hard).

Also, had some of the coolest glitches in the Zelda games. Riding Epona as a Goron, anyone?

Majora's Mask is definately my number one favorite N64 game of all time. I love the time mechanic, it works so well, and you actually have a feeling of being under pressure to finish the temples in time. Multiple times I finished a dungeon at the last second, barely resetting time in time. Never really messed with glitches though, I will have to google some and try it out.

Paper Mario all the way!!

I loved that game, I even got it on Wiiware.

Definatly Banjo-Tooie. I loved how the levels were done.

Goldeneye 007.

However, I would have picked Robotron 64 if it had been on the list.

DEFINATELY Fleetwood Mac. And with the fecal matter thing, I was referencing my own point about putting games up arses, and how it used to be easier to clean up afterwards.

I seriously can't believe Perfect Dark is almost dead-last. I guess we all had our own individual child-hood greats but for me Perfect Dark and Ocarina of Time just made my life. I miss those days :(

Paper Mario, It's been nearly a decade since I first played it and I still love it.

Mario is great, but for sheer enjoyment and replayability for me it would have to be WWF No Mercy, it's a really addictive game to play with friends, I still whip it out at least twice a week for some beer-fueled matches and trash talking.

Yeah Perfect dark is definately my 2nd favourite N64 game, and probably my 3rd favourite of all time.
