This is my first time buying an N64, and I figured this forum would be helpful in getting some games. When I played the N64 Fighters and Rpgs where a hit at the time, Quest 64 was very slow, and Fighters Destiny was a very odd fighter that pailed to other 3D fighters. Most other games I played at a friends house, a lot of the racing game, on of my favorite genres, where awfully slow. but then I started seeing more and more games being talked about I never even played. No, I have not played the Banjo''s, Conker's, Star Wars, or those other games. Basically, i only played to games for the console, so I was wondering if people has some suggestions.
You only need one, Conkers Bad Fur Day. But Zelda OOT, Majora's Mask, Super Smash Bros., Rampage World and Universal Tour, Goldeneye 007, etc are all awesome too.

The amazing thing about Conker's is that both SP and MP are amazing
[QUOTE="GaussRiemann"]No, it doesn't even have as many games in total as Saturn and PS1.

Who cares?
Saturn and PS1 have GOOD games.

N64 has better games. I'd say each system is great for what they offered. That's what was so great back then, the competition. It made the companies strive to make the most unique and best games. The rpg's and platformers for ps1 were amazing and n64 had some of the best action / platformer / multiplayer games ever. I never played Saturn too much though tbh.
Eh... as great as Perfect Dark was, I have to give the nod to the XBLA version, if only b/c they fixed the framerate problems. Despite the RPG slim pickins', Ogre Battle 64 should not be missed. It tends to get missed on many lists.
All of them are great games that have aged well, they're still very enjoyable. This is coming from a guy that played the system in recent times, for the first time.
The other games i haven't mentioned either i haven't played, or have incredibly poor framerates and shitty controls (Goldeneye, FPSs in general, Conker, etc.) that prevents me from enjoying them compared to the bucket load of great games on the PS1/Saturn.
Banjo Tooie is a phenomenal game and one of my favorites of all time. :) A really difficult platformer with a lot of really new, different ideas and huge worlds.
If you like platformers I'd also really recommend Donkey Kong 64 and Banjo Kazooie. Banjo Kazooie's definitely the easiest and "smallest" of the three but it's still great to play.

You absolutely MUST get "Blast Corps"... It may look like a stupid idea on paper, but in execution, there is no more addicting title on the system. It is AMAZINGLY fun, trust me and just buy a copy.
Also, though many poo-poo it, I really enjoyed "Star Wars: Shadow of the Empire".

It's on my wishlist. It looks very fun. Basically Doom with a Star Wars skin, but that doesn't sound like a bad thing to me. But I'm looking for the PS1 version; I only get N64 versions if it's the only affordable option because I hate the controller.

Good luck then. It only came out on N64 and PC (Windows 95). >_>

Doh! I saw "Dark Forces" when I saw Shadows of the Empire. I already have Shadows on N64.
