SO HOW MANY NINTENDO 64 GAMES DO YOU OWN?

I have all of Nintendo's consoles from SNES to the Wii U so I have a random smattering of Nintendo games. I can't name them off the top of my head though and a lot have been in storage for quite some time now, especially N64 games. Despite blowing my mind at first I got pretty disappointed in the N64 and I jumped ships to Sony in that generation and I threw a lot more of lil'me's money that way.

Here's what I remember at least:
- Mario 64
- Wave Race 64
- Blast Corps
- Zelda OoT
- Bomberman Hero
- Star Fox 64
- Quest 64
e: Forgot I also had Smash Bros too. I don't think I played any other Smash nearly as much as that one.
e2: Thanks to Miracle I remembered I also had Mario Kart 64 and Diddy Kart Racing! And technically Kirby 64 too, I have the Wii Kirby collection and iirc it's on there.

Yeah, I would've been a PS2 guy more than a Gamecube one. I did rent the Gamecube and a few games once or twice (including Melee!) I was always more of a JRPG nerd and the N64 gave a clear indication that the bulk weren't going to be on a Nintendo console. I didn't get it at launch though, I saved up money and waited for games and price drops. I don't think I ever bought a console at launch until the Wii U (and because of that I never will again, fuck the Wii U basic and it's shitty storage and all the games with their huge patches. I don't think I can even have Hyrule Warriors and Smash U together with the latest patches and I'm far too bitter to get external storage)

I'm pretty sure buying consoles at launch always feels like you're being robbed. iirc the PS2 launched at $500 or so without any extra games or controllers, the PS3 was fucking $700. $400 for two controllers and a game at least isn't awful, I think I paid more for a Wii U basic and I had to get Nintentoland separately. Thank fuck Wii controllers worked with it else I'd only have the included controllers too.

If you aren't drunk or stoned or otherwise inebriated in some capacity then you aren't playing Smash right (unless you're a kid, then get them high on sugar!)


e: this also applies for Octodad

Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards (A+ game)

I’ve always wanted to try Kirby 64 out but never quite gotten the chance to do it. I’ve played a few Kirby games before back when I was a kid, like Kirby’s Adventure, Super Star and etc., but it seemed like the Kirby train ended for me around the time of the N64.

Is it any good? Like, better than Super Star?

Very! It lets you combine elements to make new abilities. Also it has a bonus level if you get 100%. I think it's on VC, I know it's in his 20th anniversary collection. First Kirby game I played :')

Oh, let's see if I can remember (not at home right now)...

Physical cartridge:

• Super Mario 64
  
• Star Fox 64
  
• Mario Kart 64
  
• Diddy Kong Racing
  
• Donkey Kong 64 (terrible game for the most part, though it had a few highly redeeming moments)
  
• Super Smash Bros.
  
• The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
  
• Jet Force Gemini (wonky controls and high difficulty, but a blast once you get good at it)
  
• Mischief Makers
  
• Yoshi's Story (despite the cuddly appearance, one of the most challenging platformers for high score seekers)
  
• Mario Party 2
  
• Mario Party 3
  
• Pokemon Stadium
  

GameCube collection discs:

• The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Master Quest
  
• The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
  

Virtual Console:

• Sin & Punishment
  
• Paper Mario
  

Some of the powers in K64 are pretty cool, but yeah, I do miss having more than one attack per power. The fire sword is the only weapon I can think of that has more than one use. What bugs me more, though, is the general game speed. It feels like it's underwater compared to KSS. Still a decent game, though.

Anyways, to answer the OP:
Paper Mario
LoZ: Ocarina of Time (version 1.0, for anyone who cares)
LoZ: Majora's Mask
Starfox 64
Super Smash Bros.
Mario Tennis
Mario Golf (MAPLE 4 SMAAAASH!!1!!1!!)
Mario Kart 64
Diddy Kong Racing
Cruis'n the World
Wipeout 64
Bomberman Hero
Donkey Kong 64 (complete with EXPAND DONG memory cart for a MIND BLOWING 4MB of RAM WOOOAH)
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
Pokémon Stadium 1 & 2 (Getting transfer paks to work was always annoyingly iffy)
Pokémon Snap
Hey You! Pikachu! (Yes, seriously)
(VC) Super Mario 64
(VC) Sin & Punishment

I used to own Nascar '99 but I traded it in. Still have the manual, though :v

I find myself coming back to Starfox, Paper Mario, Tennis/Golf, and Cruis'n the most. My controllers are too out of shape to play Smash anymore (maybe I should get the VC version?). Oh, and of course Sin & Punishment. Mega Man X4-level voice acting and frightening human models aside, that game is fucking dope.

I still want to get Mischief Makers and Bust-a-Move '99 sometime soon, and maybe F-Zero X and the other two Cruis'n games. The first one because I just gotta try everything Treasure, and the latter because 4-player Puzzle Bobble sounds like something I need to experience in my life.


Oh, and I guess this wouldn't be a bad place to mention that someone is making an HDMI output mod for the ol' box.
(Yanno, it's not actually a box. It's more of a... shape... of some kind... seriously, wtf is it?)

I stopped playing videogames in 1999 so...
