    Thank you for this video, Jason. N64 is my favourite console and my childhood. I've dumped tens of thousands of hours into it and own a third of the NTSC library, including Clayfighter: Sculptor's Cut, Super Bowling, and Stunt Racer. Perfect Dark is my favourite video game. I even bought a sealed copy years ago and now it's quintupled in value.

    I believe Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine was a (mostly) blockbuster exclusive, where if you wanted a copy to own instead of rent you needed to buy directly from Lucasarts online store. Also Sin and Punishment is worth adding to any collection, it's a JP exclusive but easy to play without knowing Japanese, and the cutscenes are in English so you can follow the plot as well more or less.

      NC that's a great observation,,,now" the infernal machine"is the ONLY Indiana Jones title on the N64 ,I gather it's collectable status shot up around the time" Kingdom of the Crystal Skull"came out in theaters,,,I love fighting games MK series and so on ,, it's criminal that WARGODs ,,is not in MJRs collection ,,,because the PS version of wargods only works in the debut model of the PSX fact,,not compatible with DualShock-PSX ,,not compatible with Tiny PS-ONE either ,,check for yourself if you don't believe me ,,,but N64 WARGODs works with every N64 across the board,,on top of that it's noticably FASTER than it's PS counterpart,,,,now store resellers ,,some mom n pop resellers are very nice and realistic on prices ,,,but the majority are shady as hell , preaching every title you touch with concern to buy ,as if it's a "Museum Piece" and treating almost every title you bring to trade as if it's yesterday's Toilet Paper ,,resellers few can be nice n good ,most are greedy as F,,,

    I suggest the lesser known sequel to Mystical Ninja called Goemon's Great Adventure. It's a 2.5D Platformer akin to Tomba or Klonoa, and what most people don't know about the game is that it's not just 2 player co-op... There is a secret unlockable 4-player co-op mode and tons of other secrets in the game!

      Also wanted to point out that Indiana Jones, like Stunt Racer, was a Blockbuster Video rental exclusive title, and because of that reason many collectors seek it out and tends to be very hard to find in nice condition... and absurdly rare complete with manual.

    Nice collection. I bought the N64 for my daughter back in 04/05 (she was 9) and loved Yoshi's Island and a lot of the games out on that system. I ended up on a personal quest to collect every game at the time as the system was almost 10 years old then and carts were being given away at yard sales for $1-$5 (except the Mario titles). I probably had 75-80 games, and most of the boxes. I would buy box lots on eBay as well to get a few boxes I didn't have. It was a great collection, along with my Atari 5200 collection. I left the N64 and collection with my daughter when her mom and I split. Her mom ended up basically sold it for pennies basically giving it away and I was so pissed! I would have bought it from her along with the PS2 fat collection with DDR metal dance pads, hard drive, and the works. I had so much stuff pre-2007 that I would still love to have now - not to sell, just to play. Divorce sucks!

    Two games that immediately spring to mind:
    1) Mario Tennis, awesome game, very simple controls which actually enabled an amazing array of shots. As a four player game I think it was only beaten by Goldeneye. I also had a soft spot for Mario Golf.
    2) Spacestation Silicon Valley, one of my favourite games from any era, weird puzzles, bouncing your microchip into new animals and discovering their skills... actually, it's an odd one to describe and I think you have to play it to understand it, but it was great fun.
    Also, honourable mentions to Donkey Kong 64, again brilliant four player action and Pilotwings 64, which was such a wonderfully rewarding experience.
    Damn, I miss my N64, some of my best gaming moments were on that console... wandering out onto Hyrule field and seeing the size of the world in Zelda: Ocarina of Time, was breathtaking... repeatedly failing to perform a 1080° was frustrating but felt awesome when it finally landed... every single moment of Banjo-Kazooie was a joy.
    Edit: Scrolling through the comments and saw this brilliant game: Jet Force Gemini! I remember being really excited for it's release, reading all the updates in N64 Magazine and actually going to the game store to wait for it to open... there wasn't a queue lol! Never did that for any other game. I can't believe I forgot about it. Those giant ants exploding when you shot them was so satisfying 😂

The problem I have found with both consoles using both Brawler 64 controllers and Tribute 64 controllers is that i have to go to options and turn the horizontal and vertical settings to minus 15 on both controllers on both consoles or the aim point or view point swings very fast , uncontrollable. At minus 15 they are pretty close to normal but at minus 15 they should be barely moving. never had this problem with the origional n64 controllers. Any ideas as to why this is happening ?

    @MikamiHero 3 года назад

    Great video, MJR! To clarify on the Ocarina of Time version differences, N64 got 3 versions as you stated: 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2. The way you tell the difference is on the back of the cart, there's a number engraved into the label.
    If it's just a pure number (e.g., 04), then it's 1.0.
    If it's a number with the letter A (e.g., 08A), then it's 1.1.
    If it's a number with the letter B (e.g., 12B), then you have 1.2.
    Each version had minor differences, but from a speedrunning perspective (which is my primary interest), these version differences often had glitches that were patched out. So for some speedruns of the game, we opt to use V1.0 or V1.1 because of exclusive glitches. There's also other minor intricacies; for example, when you boot up V1.0 of the game, the N64 logo that shows at the start is much brighter than V1.2.
    :)
