no.
No
I skip it.
Paper Mario was my favorite
Do top 20 best & worst MY Little pony friendship is magic episodes & songs
Diddy Kong Racing was an excellent game. Highly underrated.
I wholeheartedly agree. I even think it’s superior to Mariokart 64 in every way and even most other Mariokart games.
@@OTGamer95 Diddy Kong Racing is objectively better than Mario Kart 64.
@@Tutajkk50 yes! Thank you!
@@Tutajkk50 definitely , I did play both at the time and DKR is much better ,the game play and the graphics
Needs a legit reboot on the switch definitely a forgotten title I spent ample hours playing
WWF No Mercy has aged so well. Can easily still play it on an actual N64 for hours
Still got my copy!
Maybe if you have a patched version
@@dillonqaphsiel7977 no…? Have my N64 hooked up with the original cartridge lol plays fine
@@Angfrojr there's a bug where the game will delete your save data randomly. The patch copy's have a -1 at the end of it's serial number located at the bottom on the front lable.
That game is a banger
I may not have ever owned this system
But boy am I grateful for the impact this system has had on gaming
Owned it. A friend of my a ps1 and a other a Xbox. But this one ruled. So many great titels
You haven't lived.
Grab you one man it’s worth it
And now the people that sale them fixed the problem with the analog stick from back then 😂😂😂😂
@@baskkev7459 Xbox came out way later brah. My neighbour had a ps1, ps1 had the better single player games but you just couldn’t beat Mario party, Mario cart and smash bros
@@MrSoutherhospitality they can never fix piranha pursuit though
GoldenEye will forever be my favorite N64 game, a true classic and masterpiece of the 90’s!
What're your thoughts on Perfect Dark.
Personally, I think it's better than Goldeneye in every single way.
If Goldeneye was revolutionary like GTA 3; Perfect Dark improved it like GTA Vice City (and then Halo improved that like GTA San Andreas).
I agree with the others here that Perfect Dark is a better game, but there is a huge amount of nostalgia attached to Goldeneye 007. Also, unlike Perfect Dark, no one expected a single thing from Goldeneye. It was a complete shock to most how amazing it was.
@@Spiqaro Perfect Dark was a spiritual successor to Goldeneye apparently
@@Spiqaro lmao i legit wrote that before even getting to Perfect Dark on the list and that’s exactly what he says as well 😂
@matt allen I think the opposite.
When I play Goldeneye on my TV it looks fine. When I put in Perfect Dark the frames are all over the places and constantly slowing down and dropping. I get like 5 frames a second at some points.
The nostalgia is strong with this one
Nostalgia 64
Extremely strong yeah
Infinite strong
"Super Mario 64 launched alongside the console"
(Mario gets launched from a cannon)
Nice one
Nintendo 64 was a pretty cool console back in the ‘90s.
Facts
Still is
N early 00s, that’s when Majora’s mask came out
Nintendo 64 was the funniest console i have played. It brings me back good memories.
It's the fun machine
‘Paper Mario’ is turning 20 this year.
🙂
Such a great console. I loved my N64 and had the majority that were on this list. Thanks for the memories!
This list is so solid
I will NEVER get sick of the Diddy Kong Racing music
N64 have a masterpieces of games and the list say it all.
All these games in the list deserve to be on It. I had a N64 and have great memories of that time.
Played a Lot of theses games that are on the list, but also:
- spider-man
- mega Man 64
- pokémon snap/Stadium
- Pokémon Puzzle League
- Excitebike
- Mystical Ninja
- Star Wars Racer
Good times.
stadium should've been here, its funny how wwe got there and pokemon didnt
@@felipejay7203 no mercy was op you tripping
@@felipejay7203Can confirm, No Mercy is a masterpiece wrestling game that modern wrestling games still can't match.
The N64 hardware was not inferior to the Playstation like Watchmojo says here in the Resident Evil 2 entry. The specs of the N64 were much higher. than the Playstation. Double the Ram and the GPU and CPU were 2-3X more powerful than the Playstation's. The problem was that cartridges could hold only a small fraction of the data a CD could, so things like full-motion video and prerendered backgrounds were incredibly difficult.
Bad research.
@@MrJWTH prove it?
I'd like to know where the Watchmojo gen Z'er got the idea the N64 was inferior hardware. If you look at the games that were released on both systems, outside of full FMV and storage capacity, the N64 was CLEARLY better.
@@JGreen-le8xx im a gen z and only knew that the n64 had the first 3d games and changed the industry and nothing else thx for the info
yup. ps1 had better textures and sound...but raw power the n64 has it beat.
I’m so happy to see StarFox 64 make the list. It’s a absolute masterpiece and it’s my very first video game I ever played!
I loved all of these games.. Donkey Kong 64 is a masterpiece.. Hours of game play... Really smart level designs and abilities.. It is just pure awesome
It’s too bad that the amount of collectibles is the sole reason that game gets so much criticism. Same with the backtracking in Banjo-Tooie imo. I feel like both games get too much criticism for those and I honestly like both games better than Banjo-Kazooie.
One thing I love about Paper Mario (And Thousand Year Door) was how There were a variety of personalities and genders in each enemy species, from the Goombas and Koopa Troopas, to Boos and even Bo-ombs. Plus, it was a breath of Fresh Air For Mario to Team Up with creatures that he would usually blindly stomp on in any other game.
Funny seeing someone named “Disney Villains Fan” caring about the tiny animals Mario pounces regularly.
Paper Mario is the first jrpg i played, and one of the most memorable Mario game, the thousand year is good too but the original started everything
Perfect Dark, Conker’s Bad Fur Day, and Zelda Ocarina of Time.
My top 3 right here
@@iouplayyy9191
👍
Cool. We’d be bros.
Shadows of the empire needed at least an honorable mention on here. It was challenging and you felt it. But yeah, I loved rogue squadron.
THANK YOU 😊
Totally agree. And where the heck was Cruis’n USA, or World? What about Wave Race?
Mario 64, Donkey Kong 64, 007, absolute favorites, but one game that should been on here and that is Pokemon Stadium.
90s kid here, time for an amazing nostalgia trip! Hell my '64 is still in a drawer, might bust her out!
GoldenEye 007 is one of the very few licensed games to become a true classic! The multiplayer is legendary, even to this day!
no
thats all i ever played for decades
‘GoldenEye’ is still one of the best Nintendo 64 games ever made.
One of the best games period
Agree. While it was groundbreaking at the time, it's mechanics are very dated compared to the shooters that came after it.
agreed! number one for me would always for me to be legend of zelda ocarina of time but man GoldenEye is ranks really high for me. i would spend hours playing against friends and my brothers. we would fight all the time who would go next to face off. lol its really sad that goldeneye doesnt hold up anymore. i recently tried to play it with my husband and we were so freaking disappointed. we got so sad. it one of his favorites too. the shooter forsaken was legit awesome too. it was unique with them putting u in jets but i loved it cause u could move faster and chase the ppl ur facing off to shoot them. it was awesome!
It's up there with WWF no mercy and Mario 64!!!!
Perfect Dark was better than Golden Eye on every level. Bots, graphics, characters, level design, more advanced A.I., better music, story, more guns with actual reload animations, more multiplayer maps, co-op, vs and counter ops, not to mention the amount of customization for multiplayer.
It's only downfall that I recall was the framerate when playing multiplayer. My screen turned into a slideshow lol. Otherwise, better 110%.
Ageed
This was literally my favorite system. The nostalgia just hit me
Having played most of these gosh does this give me major nostalgia. I loved Perfect Dark. OOT will forever be my favorite Zelda game. DK64 was sooo much fun. *sigh*
Edit: DK64
Agreed OOT is goat status
Majora's mask is better tho
You mean DK64
Anyone who still had a N64, Say Aye!
Yes. I still have my system. I only play it every now in them
The N64 truly have some remarkable games. It’s amazing how much of an impact most will end up having.
But it lost to the PS1.
@@bighands69 True. The PS1 is incredible. :)
@@nintendolife25
I love both consoles as they have their own charms. The N64 was more powerful when it came to 3d graphics but it really lacked in the sound department due to the limitations of the era in solid state memory that the cartridges used. PS1 was massive in terms of sales but the N64 did have its place.
Hearing that music after defeating each boss on OCARINA OF TIME was always satisfying.
And we all know that Water Temple made everyone rage quit for a while. 😂😂😂
Man that water temple was something else 🥴😂
Shadow Temple was the level I had problems with.
I spent so long in the Water Temple!
Water temples always give me a hard time in these games xdd, right now im hardstuck in the twilight princess one 😂
Forest temple had creepy music
My personal faves: Ocarina of Time, Mario Kart 64, Pokémon Stadium, Bladt Corp, Mario 64, Star Fox 64, Majora’s Mask, Smash Bros…
You know what there’s too many, but those definitely hold a great spot in my childhood memories
So many hours spent on Mario64 and Goldeneye! So much nostalgia!
Best N64 fighting game is killer instinct gold.
GoldenEye will always be a classic
I logged more hours into Goldeneye than any video game ever!
I still play out now and it's still fun!
Turok 1 Turok 2
Shadow man
Mortal Kombat 4
Rayman 2
Banjo tooie
F-ZERO X
RAYMAN 2
BODY HARVEST
INDIANA JONES
SHADOW MAN
CASTLEVANIA (sorry, ilove this game)
A great narrative could of been made here mentioning that the legend of Zelda paved the way for every fantasy adventure game that's come along since, everything from Assassin's Creed to Fable, the elder Scrolls to the Witcher. A truly groundbreaking masterpiece 👌
Fantastic list. Plus to put Donkey Kong 64 here is even better. I played that game for hours.
Awesome list!! I really liked the Cruis’n series: USA, World, and Exotica. Also, Wave Race 64 was incredible and so was Blast Corps. So many great games on this system even though it was known to have a smaller library.
The Nintendo 64 is my favorite console of all time! Also I personally think it's under used because there is so many unique games and accessories that could have been made for the system but never was.
My Top 3 N64 Games:
1. Conker's Bad Fur Day
2. Diddy Kong Racing
3. WWF No Mercy
Conker’s Bad Fur Day is the one for me 🙏🏻♥️
Ogre Battle: A person of Lordly Caliber always gets forgotten on these lists. Probably cuz very few people played it, but it’s still one of the best RPG’s I’ve ever played
My favorite will always be super Mario bros 64. It's fun, exciting, difficult at times and the graphics are still incredible. It's the 🐐 in my opinion.
Who cares as long as people know what I'm talking about.
Good for you
But have you seen Ocarina of Time?
@@savagesalvage9449 I agree with them, Mario 64 will always be, in my opinion, the best N64 game. As a HUGE Zelda fan, Ocarina of Time is actually one of my least favorite games of the franchise. Which is always a hot take. I could never, ever get use to the camera. I don't like not having free control of my camera in a 3D Zelda. I believe Wind Waker was the first 3D Zelda game to allow free control of the cameras. And between Ocarina of Time and The Wind Waker there was only Majora's Mask that was 3D (another one I'm not a fan of). Mario 64 also didn't have free control, but it always felt different with Mario to me, or perhaps that game just does a better job, in my opinion, with their cameras. Not sure. I've tried countless times to play Ocarina of Time, because I so desperately want to like that game. But I just can't get past it.
Woah! This is even better than your “Top 10 N64 Games” video!! Great Job!!
Pokémon snap?!? Harvest moon!?!? Those were my top. I still have my n64 and play it time to time.
I know I miss a good bit of these, nostalgia hits hard. 😥
Banjo Kazooie is my all time favorite ♥️
Donkey Kong 64 is one of the best games ever. I had hours and hours invested in it and I never completed it as a child. Golden days for sure.
I am extremely disappointed that Blast Corps., F-ZERO X, Wave Race 64, or Mischief Makers didn't even get honorable mentions on this list.
Shake-shake, shake-shake!
Diddy Kong Racing is both the most underrated and the best racing game in the N64. The soundtrack is amazing too!
It's not underrated
Extreme G 1 and 2 was awsome too
Personally I hated it, and Mario kart was way better. I just don't see the hype in it
@@alexandriasurrett4665 Mario kart was the better multiplayer for the normies back in the day, diddy kong was way better for the singleplayer. Actually hard bosses, a hub world with a mario world 64 star style currency to progress to new tracks, keys to find within the track, coins to collect plus winning the race, multiple vehicle types, non RNG power ups you could stack, boost mechanics with the accelerate button, battle maps, far superior soundtrack, actual 3d characters.
Orge Battle was an amazing RPG
I’ve played 95% of these games and Honestly I’m glad my childhood was great! Kinda wish I played more of Nintendos platform games though. I was usually playing Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros, Perfect Dark, and Conkers Bad Fur Day.
‘GoldenEye.’
‘Mario Kart 64.’
‘Resident Evil 2.’
‘Paper Mario.’
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I still play N64 games to this day! Pokémon Stadium, Quest 64 and Super Mario 64 remain my favorites.
No Mercy being 17 is absolutely crazy. It should EASILY be top 5.
Dude the fact that people still play this game after 21 Years👀👀!!! yeah this game reached legendary status for a reason. Glad AEW is making a wrestling game that will be just like no mercy!!!
Super happy to see WWF No Mercy on this list! Easily a defining game of my childhood.
My 64 console just went out last week. Some great memories with Golden Eye, Rogue Squadron, and Wave Race
Played goldeneye and perfect dark for hours at a time loved it.
same! my husband and i tried replaying it. we got so excited to play it again and then we were like f*ck this is sad it doesn't hold up😢 but u know what held up ocarina of time, other n64 games and forsaken. do u remember that shooter forsaken? it was sick!
@@thelilyfarrell Ummmm… Goldeneye has held up quite fine for most of us that lived through the 90s. Don’t need insane graphics in order to relive and enjoy this or Perfect Dark. Sorry you lost your appreciation for the game but most of us have not! It will always be one the best games of that era and for me the first shooter game I ever enjoyed and still enjoy to this day. I’d rather play this than any call of duty, Halo or other modern FPS. The nostalgia will always hit hard for me.
it's insane how well some of these games have aged even when it comes to the graphics. They are still playable today unlike many old games off the same era xDD
My top 3 favorite N64 games are Banjo Kazooie, Diddy Kong Racing, and Banjo Tooie (in order from 1-3)
For Star Wars games. I think Shadows of the Empire was way better than Rogue Squadron. The opening level alone was incredible. Who doesnt love the snowspeeders on Hoth.
Ogre Battle 64 definitely deserves top 10 at least. That was a gem of a game.
A highly underrated N64 game that isn't mentioned on this list is Winback Covert operations. It did the over the shoulder shooter before resident evil 4. The story was amazing and long.
I agree, that story was so dope, with lots of twists and turns. Definitely underrated game, nobody has heard of Winback when I mention it to people.
The atmosphere is great too. Such a well designed game.
Ocarina of time it was truly magical...also Majora's mask was awesome...
Just rebought a N64! This vid helped remind me of the games I gotta get! Perfect Dadk, Duke Nukem, Banjo / kazuzi, goldeneye, etc.!
WCW vs nWo: World Tour, Wayne Gretsky 3D Hockey, Southpark 64, NFL Blitz, 1080 Snowboarding, and Pilot Wings 64 should be on the list
Brandon McClintock yes it's is my Games Wayne Gretsky 3D Hockey NHL since 1996
No mercy definitely should of been in the top 10 and Wrestlemaina 2000 and WCW vs NWO revenge should of been here for honorable mentions. Just as well a pliotwings64 just for the crashes F-Zero as well Smash bros should of been in the top 8.
Here are some honorable mentions:
- Yoshi's Story: You can play one of the Yoshis in a storybook made of different materials.
- Mischief Makers: You play as a super robot girl who can grab, shake, and throw anything in her path.
- Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon: Explore the Feudal Japan as four different ninjas. Oh, they also have a giant robot !
- Pokemon Stadium: It will give you the experiencie of being in a Pokemon League. And it also has mini-games with your favorite Pokemon.
- ClayFighter: Sculptor's Cut: An updated version of the original with better graphics and gameplay... Good luck finding a copy of it.

There are sooo many great games but Super Mario 64 will forever be my favorite N64 game. I played it so much as a kid and still do to this day. Childhood memories that will never die. :D
You forgot Star Wars pod racer it’s actually pretty good
OOT, Was ABSOLUTELY UNDENIABLELY AMAZING
Another underrated gem: Mischief Makers.
I don’t know about Mario Kart 64 being better than Diddy Kong Racing.
DK64 was the first game I remember playing and it is still one of my personal favorite N64 games to this day
WWF No mercy, goldeneye, wcw revenge, Resident evil 2, Mario kart were my top 5
My brother loved Star Fox 64.
He beat it many times.
Please do Top 20 Best characters in Super Smash Bros series! I’m still waiting!
God bless Nintendo, the greatest gaming company in the world & thank you for all the nostalgia you gave us.
I still remember the Starfox Fox 64 commercial and how excited and mind blowing it was when my mom bought it for me and it coming with rumble pack!!!
Stadium, Stadium 2, and I don't know how you forgot Snap when the New one was so highly anticipated.
Perfect Dark had a way better multiplayer than Goldeneye 007. More weapons, the ability to have multiple cpu opponents with verying difficulty and the different challenges made it far superior to it.
Shitty map design tho and terrible soundtrack
Plus all guns had a secondary option
No mercy was ahead of its time
This list is my childhood in a nutshell.

OOT still gives me chills today and I'm 40yrs...who would imagine that a game I played back when I was 18 would be the best I ever played
I'm with you dude. I was two years younger but I have the same feeling. It felt like you lived that gaming experience!
Glover should be on this list at least as an honorable mention. That game was pretty damn good for a non Rare or Nintendo title
I still have my N64 and I still play it to this day time to time.
Star Wars: Shadows Of The Empire was IT for me when this system was King.
otherwise known as "top 20 N64 games you watched your dad and brother play."
My sister and I played wwf all the time when we were little. I liked playing Scotty 2 hotty, Grand Master sexy, and Rakishi, the entrance theme, camera movements and you get a celebration dance when you win! Loved that!
Great list! I would have definitely moved No Mercy up to be in top 5 though. Perfect dark is an understated gem, my brother and I wasted countless hours killing each other on the multiplayer mode. Good times 😎
I only got to play Super Mario 64 and Mario Kart 64 (on a local rental place; never got to own the console myself). And my God, those games are legendary.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie, Paper Mario, Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door, Goldeneye, Diddy Kong Racing, Donkey Kong 64, Super Mario 64, how I loved playing them!! Looking forward to replaying Banjo-Kazooie and others on the Switch.
Thousand year door was GameCube, you're thinking the original paper Mario.
Killer instict gold is a must have game for Nintendo 64. A list without this is tragic.
Wow that's amazing man
I knew Conker's Bad Fur Day would be on this list!
1080°, NFL Blitz, NBA Hangtime, Road Rash 64, Rush 2, F-Zero X are some of the best too.
