Can’t believe Diddy Kong Racing hasn’t made it on to NSO. The best kart racer of the generation, and it’s not even close. Plus it had an awesome single player campaign.
I'm amazed they haven't released RE2 yet given how closely Nintendo works with Capcom, and the fact that a certain demographic would get the NSO Expansion just for that game.
I want to see: Mischief Makers, Duke Nukem 64, Duke Nukem Zero Hour, Perfect Dark, Conker’s Bad Fur Day, Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon, Goemon’s Great Adventure, Megaman 64, and Banjo Tooie.
The only games I like to see get added are; the OG Super Smash Bros., Banjo-Toole and Diddy Kong Racing. I’d also like to see S.C.A.R.S. get added on N64 Switch Online too, but that pretty doubtful
@@IcarianX Seriously. I had such fond memories playing this as a kid while my friend took control of Floyd. But the control scheme for the online service was agony. Don't know if I can play through the whole game like that.

I remember going on forums discussing the ocarina sequel, I was so hyped for it. Thankful I got a guide for it, I remember christmas of 2000 getting the guide but not the game 😂, I remember getting the Amazon package February of 2001 and diving right into it. If I log into my moms old amazon account it's in her history still.
I still wish the original Panel de Pon characters (Lip and the other fairies) got to become more popular. The Smash Remix hack was their chance to shine. They may be from the SNES, but so was Ness in the OG game, and the Lip's Stick item originates from this franchise. Except they weren't picked for the roster.
I want the Mario Party franchise to get the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe treatment. Every board, every mini game (except boards where you were stuck in a car with the other players). Even just a collection of Mario Party 4-7 would be amazing
The worst is having no option for screen ratio. I want to play streched so i can view it in its native fullscreen ratio on my CRT tv, not having black bars on an already 4:3 display
Diddy Kong Racing, Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Snowboard Kids, Banjo Tooie would all be good additions, but I think they have most of the good games on their already now. The GB and GBA selections are quite lacking though
Mario Tennis 64 is like the BEST mario tennis versions out there. the physics engine had more orientation based on how the ball was returned. later titles you just had to be near the ball. with MT64 hitting a ball on your right side when right handed after a single bounce was the easiest way to smash the ball without the star. also running forward and hitting the ball would give more nets, you could ONLY use a top spin to run forward and catch a front courtball. so many more nuances to the game where POSITION mattered that later titles covered up with the gimmick gameplay. i sunk so many hours into the game both with the original and the Switch 64 rom. on the original i got all the trophies for all the players, both singles, star cup, and doubles, i forget if there was a doubles star cup but i probably did than one too. after playing Game Cube Tennis and Switch's MT Aces, it took me a while to jog my muscle memory but the rage of "this game is cheating" came back. again you CAN NOT run up to a ball and slice it, you'll almost always get a net, maaybe if you chare up but the charge speeds were slower yet the reward was a faster hit ball. the only few things I like about aces over MT 64 is 1) the graphics and 2) Tricky players have a sharper curve.
If I had to truly go top three it's Ocarina of Time, Mario 64, and Wave Race 64 -- go for top 5 add in Golden Eye, and Banjo Kazooie -- but truly there are so many games that are absolute classics. Once you get past the top 5 the next 20 are all of very very high quality. Should be remembered as the 2nd best, and most influential console Nintendo ever produced.
Banjo-Kazooie, Pokémon Puzzle League, Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask and Mario Kart 64 are my favourite N64 games on the Expansion Pack so far
My 3 friends and I have been playing Mario Party 2 basically every week on NSO since it came out. We've got over 200 hours worth of games so far. We spent thousands of hours as kids playing this game, so it's so cool to relive it all over again as adults. It's super easy to use and set up too, which is something you can't take for granted when it comes to Nintendo and online multiplayer.
Winback! I can't tell you how much I used to rent that game at my local video store, and then get a subway sandwich to munch on beforehand, cuz it was right next door
I will always have a soft spot for Extreme G and was thrilled to see it come to the Switch service. It has held up so well since its 1997 release and is so much fun to play. The speed boosts, the music, the weapons and the tracks all make for a fantastic racing game. It was also one of the first games me and my brother got for the system (along with Banjo Kazooie and Super Mario 64). Overall a great list with some very expected results, but hey those games deserve to be that popular for a reason :) The next bunch of games I would love to see on the Switch service are: Top Gear Overdrive (what I call a bargain bin gem, I mean who wouldn't want to drive a taco?!) any WWF/WCW game by THQ (although likely won't happen for licensing reasons) Banjo Tooie (Really do believe this is only a matter of time due to recent Rare releases) Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine (only got released in America so would be great to try that out here in the UK) Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire (great game! would love to play it on the go) Star Wars Rogue Squadron (same reason as above, and getting those gold medals are addictive!) Resident Evil 2 (this would be incredible! however unlikely as it would mean the switch service would need a higher age rating. BOO!)
It’s funny how every article written about harvest Moon 64 back in the day was basically like, it’s a farming video game! No seriously! Crazy to look back on now that farm Sims have become their own genre
Pokemon Stadium 2 is one of my all time favorite N64 games. I have such fond memories of doing the gym leader tower with my Pokemon Silver team. It's such a shame you're limited to the rental pokemon in both games on NSO.
I love Zelda. But I wish I enjoyed Majora’s Mask as much as everyone else. I might need to try again. But my first time trying it on Switch, I got around 3 hours in and I just wasn’t feeling it. Idk. 🤷♂️
I was going to say that Iggy's Reckin' Balls in no way deserves to be propping up the bottom of this list but then the more I think about it....yeah, maybe it does. The Switch N64 lineup is damn strong.
@@X2011racer I’ve seen the PC port, didn’t look into it at all, but if it runs awful, I wouldn’t be surprised in this day and age. I hope that publisher brings it to consoles eventually. It’s been announced for it already, but just haven’t heard anything from them since the announcement.
Blast Corps should be in the top five to me. One of my favorite games of all time. Much more original concept and replay-ability than the N64 Mario Party and Pokémon Stadium games.
It's nice to see the top 20 all landing in 8 stars or higher. It shows how despite lacking a massive catalog, the N64 still had quality games worth enjoying today
I’d be really interested in playing Micky’s Speedway USA; it was made by Rare and got good reviews. The old Micky Mouse games ended up on the Mega Drive Mini so hopefully the licensing won’t be an issue.
Hiding N64 (and Mega drive) games, (many of which I'd already purchased on Wii/U/3DS) behind a paywall really made me shake my fists in dismay and reminded me I had an N64 in storage. It's only cost about £500 in cables, console mods, scalers and cartridges and I can now play 1/3 of these games in their original splendor. False economies aside, there is something about the visual output (with or without disabling the layers of blur) of OG hardware that makes more sense with the graphical makeup, and input response is much better than emulation, though arguably not that useful at sub 20fps...
We still need conkers bad fur day, wwf no mercy, duke nukem zero hour, StarCraft 64, perfect dark, and probably several others I can’t think of right now
My main issue is with Pokemon stadium, as much as I love them not being able to add my Pokemon is a massive handicap when you try to play through the gym matches. Most of the rentals have dog water move sets making it very difficult once you get around the 7th badge
Super Mario 64 is my favorite N64 game and I’ve never played it on N64- growing up I had a SNES and when I finally got a DS when it launched, Super Mario 64 DS was my ishhh
Golf and Tennis were great on the 64 (or Nintendo 60 based on what Felix kept saying), but they both got huge upgrades on the Cube in every sense of the word. Funnily enough, the Color games are better than the GBA ones
Damn..."corps" ?...quality of this video is unfortunately low. 😢 I'm a BIG NintendoLife fan, but geez guys, we could have done better. But, hey, keep your heads up :)
Man, I just can't imagine a world where I would choose Star Fox 64 over Paper Mario. Obviously this list had approximately 0 chance of matching my personal preference, but that one surprised me most.
Gonna echo many comments here and note that I had practically forgot that Diddy Kong Racing wasn’t on NSO. They definitely have some great games they’re just sleeping on for no apparent reason. I also forgot that Jetforce Gemini *is* on there though so that’s neat. As for my favorite 3? Banjo-Kazooie, Mario 64, Majora’s Mask
Who else cannot wait for the next N64 NSO game announcement? I'm willing to put some money on DK64. But KI Gold would be awesome too especially with microsoft working with Nintendo.
I'd like to play Sim City 64, Cubivore (Doubutsu Banchou), Bakuretsu Muteki Bangai-O, Wonder Project J2, Starcraft 64 and all the RUSH games. Also like to replay Tetrisphere, Mischief Makers, Conker's Bad Fur Day, and Wetrix. I'd also root for Resident Evil 2 and DOOM 64 if Switch hadn't their remakes.
Would still like to be able to change button mapping per game in the n64 online settings rather than having to back out to switch settings to do it and then having to change back when playing something else. The Fzero x button config hurts my brain.
Interesting list. I own 13 of these 32 games. And my list of those 13 isn’t too different. I have Banjo beating Mario but other than that the top 5 is the same…! I have Jet Force two higher out of those 13 games and F-Zero two lower but yeah - very similar…! 13: Excitebike 64 (12) 24 12: Pokémon Stadium (13) 25 11: Mario Party (10) 20 10: Mario Golf (9) 17 9: Jet Force Gemini (11) 23 8: F-Zero X (6) 8 7: Mario Tennis (8) 12 6: Mario Kart 64 (7) 11 5: Super Mario 64 (4) 4 4: Banjo-Kazooie (5) 5 3: Goldeneye 007 (3) 3 2: LoZ: Majora’s Mask (2) 2 1: LoZ: Ocarina of Time (1) 1
I always dislike lists like this because the way you talk about the games gives us 0 idea why they are where they are. You could swap em and no one could tell the difference. You're ranking them *AGAINST EACH OTHER*, tell us why they are where they are.
The fact the DK64 is still not on there is beyond me…
Dude, just wait. It’ll come eventually. You’ve got lots of other games to play in the meantime.
25th Anniversary this year...👀
@@paperluigi6132 I NEED LOW POLY BANANA
I'm GUESSING it has something to do with it being made by Rare...?
At least it's not too late, there's still time for it to get added
It was on the Wii U so i don't see why they cant put it on Switch, maybe they are still working on the widescreen feature @OriginalGameteer
Can’t believe Diddy Kong Racing hasn’t made it on to NSO. The best kart racer of the generation, and it’s not even close. Plus it had an awesome single player campaign.
Diddy Kong, DK64, and Smash Bros. are glaring omissions. Conkers absolutely needs to be added to the "Mature" service as well.
@@Chubzdoomer Banjo-Tooie as well. Seems like an obvious omission considering the 1st game is on NSO.
Diddy???!?
Banjo-tooie, DK64, Smash 64, Bomber Man 64, Diddy Kong Racing, Rocket Robot on Wheels, there's still SO many games they could pull from.
Still waiting for DK64 and SSB. RE2 would be a pleasant surprise.
I actually really want SSB because it's probably a lot more approachable for my friends who don't play Smash
I'm amazed they haven't released RE2 yet given how closely Nintendo works with Capcom, and the fact that a certain demographic would get the NSO Expansion just for that game.
@@jamesknight3070 I wouldn't be surprised if it's a stupid reason like Capcom would prefer to make people buy the remake
I want to see: Mischief Makers, Duke Nukem 64, Duke Nukem Zero Hour, Perfect Dark, Conker’s Bad Fur Day, Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon, Goemon’s Great Adventure, Megaman 64, and Banjo Tooie.
I doubt Conker’s Bad Fur Day will come to Switch Online because Nintendo hated that game and was not happy with Rare for creating it.
Perfect list except it’s missing no mercy , beetle racing , San Francisco rush 2049
Bomberman 64. The online multiplayer would be glorious.
I forgot about those Duke Nukem games. We also need Rogue Squadron and shadows of the empire. Also, the world is not enough 007.
The only games I like to see get added are; the OG Super Smash Bros., Banjo-Toole and Diddy Kong Racing. I’d also like to see S.C.A.R.S. get added on N64 Switch Online too, but that pretty doubtful
How is Diddy Kong Racing NOT on NSO? It’s criminal.
One more reason that makes me refuse getting expansion pack.
We also need Donkey Kong 64 and Banjo Tooie. I REALLY WANT to play them again.
@@SoraFan23 I think Didi Kong racing is my priority over donkey Kong 64 but I’ll be happy to have both on NSO.
Copyright hell I guess
Blame Microsoft
I need donkey Kong 64 on this service. It needs to happen
Actually, Sin and Punishment became available in the west on the Wii Virtual Console, so slightly earlier.
Yes, I bought it there then got the bonkers follow up which is my Fave Wii game OAT.
*akshually* 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
1080 Snowboarding should be much higher on the list. I had so much fun with it back in the day!
Jet Force Gemini is criminally underrated. One of my favorites growing up.
Controls like ass using the Switch Pro Controller though.
Agreed
@@IcarianX Seriously. I had such fond memories playing this as a kid while my friend took control of Floyd. But the control scheme for the online service was agony. Don't know if I can play through the whole game like that.
I agree, but you'd be better getting it on Xbox since Rare Replay can be bought & owned for under $10.
Question for those who have it:
Does the campaign co-op via the droids still work?
(Press Start on controller 2 once a droid has been acquired).
Sin and Punishment is a top 10 game in the entirety of the 64 library. It’s aged incredibly well, too. Don’t be deterred by its position on this list.
Can confirm. If you love on-rails shooters, Sin & Punishment is one of the quintessential entries of the genre
For me it's the best game ever
My top 3 played games on the N64 NSO are Ocarina of Time, Paper Mario 64, and Majora’s Mask, the first two having over 115 hours of total play time.

So nice to see some younger folk like Felix showing respect and love to some of our older generation of consoles and games 😊
This comment makes me feel prehistoric
That description of Wave Race 64 makes me feel seen.
I have never agreed with a rant more in my life. 😢
Same. 😂 Every E3... Wasted. But with switch 2 surely having ray tracing, it's time. Right? Right? 🙏😂
omg Iggy's Reckin Balls. Watching that footage launched me back into the past. I used to love it... it has such a great vibe
Iggy's reckin' balls is so awesome!
I remember going on forums discussing the ocarina sequel, I was so hyped for it. Thankful I got a guide for it, I remember christmas of 2000 getting the guide but not the game 😂, I remember getting the Amazon package February of 2001 and diving right into it. If I log into my moms old amazon account it's in her history still.
I still wish the original Panel de Pon characters (Lip and the other fairies) got to become more popular.
The Smash Remix hack was their chance to shine. They may be from the SNES, but so was Ness in the OG game, and the Lip's Stick item originates from this franchise. Except they weren't picked for the roster.
I really need to finally get that official n64 controller.
The fact that F-Zero X is in the top 10 really makes me feel good as a fan of the fastest, most punishing racing franchise in the history of Nintendo.
You are not alone
@@NikoSoviet88 That makes me feel even better knowing I'm not the only one.
Man nintendo has neglected a lot of there franchises that people wanta see again. F-Zero to me is probably the best racer on the N64
It's such a sick game, it's one of my favorites.
@@DIRTYSOUTHSHINOBI You got that right.
I think it’s pronounced blast “CORE”
I want the Mario Party franchise to get the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe treatment. Every board, every mini game (except boards where you were stuck in a car with the other players). Even just a collection of Mario Party 4-7 would be amazing
That's what I wanted superstars to be :( they just decided not to add many GC mini games or many outside the N64 in general....
Still need diddy kong racing and MYSTICAL NINJA GOEMON
The worst is having no option for screen ratio. I want to play streched so i can view it in its native fullscreen ratio on my CRT tv, not having black bars on an already 4:3 display
I don’t always feel good playing N64 games through NSO, because I know that eventually, in a decade or so, NSO won’t be available anymore.
Diddy Kong Racing, Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Snowboard Kids, Banjo Tooie would all be good additions, but I think they have most of the good games on their already now. The GB and GBA selections are quite lacking though
Feel like n64 has a great selection now. There's still games I want but can't complain about what we do have :).
Mario Tennis 64 is like the BEST mario tennis versions out there.

the only few things I like about aces over MT 64 is 1) the graphics and 2) Tricky players have a sharper curve.
I had an advert for Felix cat food before the video started, which just made the whole experience of watching this video nicer 🐈⬛
This really made me realize what a great catalog NSO has. Sure there are more must-haves to add but still
I wish Nintendo would do a second "Rare" collection release of DK 64, Banjo Tooie, and Diddy Kong racing!! Then the N64 collection would be complete!!
Mario Golf criminally underrated
There are still a few good games missing on NSO but that 32 is really solid already. Fav 3 are SM64, Banjo and Ocarina
I wish I can go back in time to the N64 days. Those were such good days.

I need Glover N64 to come to NSO +Expansion Pack. Underrated game. Super tough. Music SLAPS.
Wasn't there a disastrous HD remaster on PC? Whoever published that would definitely push the HD version to consoles.

While I know its likely impossible, id love to see Conkers Bad Fur Day. Excellent multiplayer package and super polished game overall.
Rocket Robot On Wheels needs to be on there! And Chameleon Twist 1 & 2
My dreamlist: conkers bad furday, dk64, Diddy kong racing, mischeif makers, glover, rat attack, automobili Lamborghini, Nagano winter olympics 98, smash 64

Must be a PAL region thing. They didn't get the 4 extra bits. Good video though.
My best guess is that the mustache makes it harder to say 4 😂
I like your Winnipeg Jets hat. What's the story there?
I love it too!
I am very surprised about Yoshis Story. This was one of my absolute favorite games on the N64
Diddy kong racing was nice but our favourite was Mickey's Speedway USA. I really want to play that again 😢❤
Can confirm as an Australian
Mario party 3 released here
Hired it only once at video ezy before they sold the n64 games
Damn..."corps" ?...quality of this video is unfortunately low. 😢 I'm a BIG NintendoLife fan, but geez guys, we could have done better.
But, hey, keep your heads up :)
WWF no mercy,clay fighter,bomber man and more we want more N64 games in the switch
Need to see bomber man 64, Diddy Kong racing, Silicon Valley space station, perfect dark, gex, rayman 2, DK, tooie, BFD
Extreme G looks like the game Kakyoin had to play for his soul
Serect Yur Cur
Man, I just can't imagine a world where I would choose Star Fox 64 over Paper Mario. Obviously this list had approximately 0 chance of matching my personal preference, but that one surprised me most.
Gonna echo many comments here and note that I had practically forgot that Diddy Kong Racing wasn’t on NSO. They definitely have some great games they’re just sleeping on for no apparent reason. I also forgot that Jetforce Gemini *is* on there though so that’s neat. As for my favorite 3? Banjo-Kazooie, Mario 64, Majora’s Mask
Who else cannot wait for the next N64 NSO game announcement? I'm willing to put some money on DK64. But KI Gold would be awesome too especially with microsoft working with Nintendo.
Iggy's Reckin' Balls before DK64 what the actual heck...
when I was young my brother had a game on his Nintendo called banjo toole which I have yet to see on any other Nintendo consoles
I'd like to play Sim City 64, Cubivore (Doubutsu Banchou), Bakuretsu Muteki Bangai-O, Wonder Project J2, Starcraft 64 and all the RUSH games.
Also like to replay Tetrisphere, Mischief Makers, Conker's Bad Fur Day, and Wetrix.
I'd also root for Resident Evil 2 and DOOM 64 if Switch hadn't their remakes.
Would still like to be able to change button mapping per game in the n64 online settings rather than having to back out to switch settings to do it and then having to change back when playing something else. The Fzero x button config hurts my brain.
Interesting list. I own 13 of these 32 games. And my list of those 13 isn’t too different. I have Banjo beating Mario but other than that the top 5 is the same…!
I have Jet Force two higher out of those 13 games and F-Zero two lower but yeah - very similar…!
13: Excitebike 64 (12) 24
12: Pokémon Stadium (13) 25
11: Mario Party (10) 20
10: Mario Golf (9) 17
9: Jet Force Gemini (11) 23
8: F-Zero X (6) 8
7: Mario Tennis (8) 12
6: Mario Kart 64 (7) 11
5: Super Mario 64 (4) 4
4: Banjo-Kazooie (5) 5
3: Goldeneye 007 (3) 3
2: LoZ: Majora’s Mask (2) 2
1: LoZ: Ocarina of Time (1) 1
I always dislike lists like this because the way you talk about the games gives us 0 idea why they are where they are. You could swap em and no one could tell the difference.
You're ranking them *AGAINST EACH OTHER*, tell us why they are where they are.
Because that's where the overall user base ranked them. He said so at the beginning of the video.
