I'm going to buy a Nintendo 64 and I want to know what games are good.

[CruxZader]

For me conquers bad fur day was a good N64 game. It had a really fun multiplayer.

[CROW]

James Bond: Goldeneye was immensely popular when it came out for Nintendo, and Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is just a fucking classic.

[Uncle Hammer]

Pokemon stadium, no joke. Great multi player mario party type esque games.

[BlackFox]

The original Super Smash Bros. all the way. IMO, still one of the best nintendo games.

[Swords]

StarFox is a great one. I really should go back and play it sometime.

[Bomberman]

If you like that type of game, F-Zero. That was a GREAT Game series. I hope they come out with a remake for the wii. But, that will never happen. And yes, Ocarina of Time was a classic, and all around great game. And I like pokemon stadium, or pokemon snap.

[Philote]

Banjo Kazooie. Super Mario 64. Paper Mario. Banjo Tooie. Ha, I win.

[fishcakeisawesome]

Paper Mario, Rayman 2 The Great Escape, Kirby 64 The Crystal Shards, Super Mario 64, and Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time are all good games.

If your looking for it, you could buy it on the shop channel, or buy SSBB and play the in game demo. I'd also like to add Lego Racer, Pod Racing, StarFox64 and, even though its not an N64 game: Super Metroid. Easily the Greatest game ever made.
EDIT: If I'm not mistaken there is one for the GC.

I second Pokemon Stadium, Mario Kart, and Super Smash Bros. Heck, I'll say the first several Mario Parties, the minigames were fun.

Heres my list:
-Pokemon Stadium

Thats about it.

[King Of Butt Land]

Hold on a tick, why buy and N64 and all these games when could just get an emulator and download the ROMS?

Project 64

I'll let you find the ROMS yourself.

[Rogue Warrior]

Goldeneye, banjo Kazooie, Banjo tooie

[joeyaglr444]

There were games for the N64 That were way ahead of they're time like "007:The world is not enough" and of course "Perfect Dark".

[keef]

Any n64 Zelda game. (Majora's Mask and Orcarina of Time).

Banjo Koojoie was good, but kinda boring.

Goldeneye is great, but there is a HL2 Goldeneye Source mod for free.

I'm working on Benheck's N64 Portable, portable Super Mario 64 FTW!

[Lynx]

Get the system or get an emulator.

Either way YOU MUST get these games (The number is my order of pimping-nes):

(1) Super Mario 64-The fucking awesome classic 120 stars + Yoshi.

(3) Goldeneye 007-My first non-Doom first person shooter (I think). Great multi-player.

(5) Perfect Dark- One of the best games I have played.

(4) Mario Party X- Any number will do. The first one is my favorite though. The stories are just retarded after that.

(2) Starfox 64- Another fucking awesome classic. Make inappropriate jokes. Especially ones about Slippy (make sure he doesn't die).

EDIT: And the Zelda games.

Its unfortunate most of the classics are ESA protected and these roms can not be downloaded. For instance StarFox 64, Mario Parties, and my favorite Paper Mario. Getting the N64 off Ebay and the games are going to be expensive, good luck.

[joeyaglr444]

There are a ton of game stores in Toronto that sell all kinds of outdated(But timeless) N64 and other consoles and games like tons. One place has the original Super Smash Bros for $39 if u want more info PM my sorry ass!

[SirTofu]

There is only one 64 game that is essential and that is goldeneye. This game is still one of the finest examples of good multiplayer and a shooter on a console that worked like a dream. Some people like perfect dark better, but in my opinion, it's major imbalanced along with making the game a bit more complex. Goldeneye may be a plain vanilla shooter nowadays, but I believe is one of true skill. It is still one of the games that I am the best at, and once you become really amazing at it, it becomes an experience. For the first semester of college, Goldeneye was a drug. We needed it, and not even for the entertainment.

So buy goldeneye and 4 controllers, that's all you need.

I too agree Sir. The tons of feature Perfect Dark had also made the game lag when too many players went on screen at once. But still, both games are a need to have. Thats why I have them both.

I have Golden Eye. That game was the main reason I want to buy the n64. When I was 12 or so I went to this childcare place and we would be shooting each other with the awsome rocket launchers at the centers n64. I remember two guns were very fun as you could press a button and you could zoom and control where you shot, instead of the boxhead style shooting of most of the other guns. The other game I bought was Beetle Racing, and although it may sound like a terrible idea, it was way better than the other racing game I've played, Rush: San Francisco. It was actually a very challenging race game where you didn't flip over and burst into flames every time you hit the curbs. Another thing I liked about it was the short cuts, which are always fun to find.

[BendyStraw]

Oh man, now I need to go play goldeneye and use that 2X rocket launcher cheat.

I loved Smash Bros. Star Fox 64, Super Mario 64, Goldeneye, Ocarina of time, and... Pokemon Snap. :3
