@@ToxicTurquoise454 It could've been because we were kids. No responsibilities, someone taking care of us. Now we can do that for others! The world will be that again. If not for us, then those we care for! 😊
My father used to own a video game shop and he died in February this gets me emotional but in a good way as he loved Nintendo and had a passion for games the Zelda music hits the heart heavy. Thank you for making this for all of us.
Sorry to hear about your pops, I know how hard that is. Your dad sounded like a really cool guy. My dad was not a video game guy at all, all sports, but he was a great guy and still bought me systems and games growing up because he knew I loved it. Shoutout to all the great dads out there and Merry Christmas!
I'm working at a food bank that helps students at my university, Today's shift is slow, so I'm just chilling and listening to this fire playlist. Absolutely love these tracks. This is my childhood right here.
Zelda ocarina of time intro music...man that song never fails to get a tear in my eye, I remember it clearly, that emotion when my brother and I took it out of the box and started playing, surely a masterpiece of a game that never got topped in my whole life
SAME here brother, same here. It surprised me the first time it made me tear up. But it's amazing how many memories in your life get locked into a single piece of music. When I hear that intro, I think about how old I was... the grade in school I was in... my friends... my extracurricular activities... it just pulls that entire era of my life fully back into focus as if I'm there again, and I LOVE that. Without those games, or this great music... those times would likely be nothing more than a nebulous haze that I would struggle to remember even ten percent of. With music like this, I vividly remember it all.
RARE was one of the best when it came to soundtracks and music back in the day. So easy to distinguish them from other tracks, theres just something that says "this is RARE".
I remember, very clearly, the first time I saw a videogame in 3D. It was Super Mario 64, and I had little idea what I was really doing. But I could make that plumber move, son; and when I got to the first aquatic level and heard the beautiful melody that opens this compilation, all I could do was sit there and listen. If I shut my eyes, I can almost believe I'm back in that old living room.
Listening to this playlist and reading through the comments brought me so much joy. It reminded me of simpler times before the internet was a big thing, split screen gaming with my siblings and not a care in the world. Couldn't have picked a better 1st song to have on this nostalgia filled playlist than Dire Dire Docks.
This is amazing and hurts my soul all at the same time. Childhood sounds to bring a nostalgic vibe but of course sad of the passing of time that I'll never get to experience those for the first time again.
So true... nostalgia is like a drug. With the right amount, it makes me happy... cheerful... more pleasant to be around... and just happier over all. But too much of it and I become sad and downtrodden, it's definitely a balancing act. The pain that comes with knowing you can *never* go back, or how good it once was, is also why each day of our lives so meaningful. Just keep the quote from OOT (from Sheik) in your mind: "The flow of time is always cruel. It's speed seems different for each person, but no one can change it. *A thing that doesn't change with time is a memory of younger days.* It is something that grows over time, a true friendship. A feeling in the heart that becomes stronger over time. The passion of friendship will soon blossom into a righteous power and through it, you will know which way to go. A childish mind will turn to noble ambition, young love will become deep affection. The clear water's surface reflects growth. Time passes, people move... like a river's flow, it never ends..." -Sheik
This is easily the best N64 compilation I’ve listened to. I miss playing these games so much and yet when I load them up on the Switch emulator I don’t get the same buzz. I don’t want to play these games. I want to be 12 again, living through the late 90s early 00s playing these for the first time.
Absolutely fantastic playlist. Amazing to think that we all have these shared memories of playing these games. The passage of time can't remove that deep longing for a bygone era. Thank you. The only thing that could make this playlist better is anything from Bomberman Hero!
Gentlemen, I've cracked the nostalgia code: Have kids. Play these games with them. My 4 year old hums the song of storms in bed and my 1.5 yo hums eponas song. My 4 year old has 15 stars he got without me touching ths controller. Every morning he gets up and asks if ill play majoras mask (the zelda games are still a bit beyond him to play but he still likes them). When they have quiet time he asks me to play this playlist. The key to meaningful nostalgia is sharing it with the next generation.
Oh man, I totally forgot about Kirby: The Crystal Shards. I put so much time into that game as a kid. Nostalgia hit hard on that track, harder than I would have expected. Thank you!
Honestly did not expect that I would be vibing this hard, I'd forgotten how incredible this era was. It just goes to show what people can create when working with relatively strict limitations !
Wow this blew up way more than I expected! Thank you all so much for the kind words. So what chill game music would you like to see next? I was thinking GameCube or PlayStation 1. Reply here and lemme know. Thanks again 🥰
I never had a PlayStation growing up, but I still have my GameCube. I was home schooled, and remember turning it on in the morning while doing work. My excuse was so it could warm my room, but we all really know it was so I could watch and listen to that sweet sweet Wind Waker intro over and over again! 🤣
Dude i agree with every comment, aproving this as the best N64 compilation out there, even Glover's OST is here, i was not expecting that one. Much appreciated that you created this for us.
I never owned an N64 but I didn't realize how related the soundfont was on every game. Most of the tracks here remind me of Zelda and Mario 64 for that reason. These are awesome.
Really appreciate you including some tracks from the (often overlooked!) Maro Golf soundtrack. I used to play it all the time with my grandfather and this is the first time I've heard anything from the OST since he passed away. It hurts, but it brings back some happy memories too. Thank you.
I've been listening to this while I grade reports and it's just been a soothing ground to return to when the student's work inevitably makes me do a deep sigh. 😞 You've earned a sub for that alone.
It’s truly a gift to see music connecting so many people. Koji Kondo is well deserving of all the love and praise. Everyone in that Music department deserves that much. He loved us all enough to give us this gift. I cherish it now, and always. I love this music and the music loves us all; therefore, I love you all too.
I nearly forgot to thank Grant Kirkhope as well!! Edit: hiiiii I’m back again to add to my incredible list!! Yasunori Mitsuda and of course Nobou Uematsu! Thank you!!
Every N64 music compilation: *starts with Dire Dire Docks*
Everyone: "Correct."
I never liked this level. But I love the music. I have it in Piano sheet music and it's fun to play.
Seriously the comment I came looking for.
The opening music to OOT would also be acceptable
🤝
@@sartorius73 Do you think you could send me the sheet music if I gave you my email? Or is there a link you could send me?
These songs are from a better time on planet Earth.
They are. The world felt so much happier back then. We lived in peace 😊
The best is yet to come
I like that positivity@@Mitsurugy37

Amen bro
Your dad sounds like a cool guy
@bengarrison7780 that's a really weird comment to make. Hope your life turns around.
Can't go wrong if you have Dire Dire Docks as the very first track. 10/10
Exactly what I thought too. Such an iconic track
it's a banger always and forever
as soon as i heard it i was like "thank you" to myself out loud
Couldn't agree with you more
Holy sh!t, fr fr, that song started playing and I was like "damn, nostalgic playlist might be the most accurate title to a youtube video, ever".
These games didn't have any business having soundtracks this good. We truly were living in the good old days in the mid to late 90s with these games.
I'm working at a food bank that helps students at my university,
Today's shift is slow, so I'm just chilling and listening to this fire playlist.
Absolutely love these tracks. This is my childhood right here.
they knew what they were doing when they started with Dire Dire Docks. hooked
I like how he payed attention that the last songs are outro songs because the playlist is now over.
Zelda ocarina of time intro music...man that song never fails to get a tear in my eye, I remember it clearly, that emotion when my brother and I took it out of the box and started playing, surely a masterpiece of a game that never got topped in my whole life
Same here! That and Majora's Mask for me. And most Nintendo 64 and Gamecube game. I tear up too.
OoT intro music is just... aaah, so happy to know it means the same for so many people out there.

OoT was the first thing I ever fell in love with. It never gets old for me. Zelda fan for life.
omg same here! I've played some amazing games on a variety of systems but no game has a place in my soul like Ocarina of Time 💖
This has been like a $20,000 hospital visit for my mental health,
you're helping people a lot, thanks heaps hope this stays free.
RARE was one of the best when it came to soundtracks and music back in the day. So easy to distinguish them from other tracks, theres just something that says "this is RARE".
Wasnt expecting Space Station Silicon Valley to be in here, omg I love
Probably one of the best N64 comps.

When little Link turned into adult Link, I was like omg. It's like two separate games in one cartridge.

so far it is.
Agreed. I've never seen its equal.
@@nicholasrolfe316j of
Agreed. This compilation has quite a few tracks that aren't on the others I have found.
I forgot how much of a banger Rainbow Road Maro Kart 64 was :)

The Mario 64 credit song for the ending is perfect
Holy shit...you even got Ogre Battle 64 in here...nobody ever remembers Ogre Battle 64...TY so much!!
This heals my troubled heart.

I was in Euston station in London around 6 months ago and there was a guy on the piano playing dire dire docks, made me smile.
I glad Goemon hasn't been forgotten

So many good memories, i remembered playing some of these N64 classics, and to this day i still wish i had my N64
Forgot how much Toad Highland slaps
This is the definitive N64 music playlist, well friggen done. Another day, another victory for the OGs.
Never realized how many sounds were shared between BaK and DK64. Great Playlist!

Nostalgia hit so hard when I heard Goemon OST
I’m not crying, you’re crying 🥺

Could not end in a more appropriate way. The last 2 songs are the best part by far. Flawless compilation!
A++ on this N64 Playlist. This hits in all the right ways, best one I've found so far.
Blue Resort is so good I cannot describe it.
Pulled Banjo Kazooie out for my nephew when he was 6. He had a total blast. Goes to show that old games really can hold up today. 😅
Oh man, I totally forgot about Kirby: The Crystal Shards. I put so much time into that game as a kid. Nostalgia hit hard on that track, harder than I would have expected. Thank you!
Popped this playlist earlier today at work and let me tell you - I've never felt so calm in my life Beautiful compilation!
when I was a kid I used to sit at the OOT title screen just to listen to the title theme. It's so relaxing

You know the nostalgia power is strong when you still feel nostalgic despite playing 1/4 of the games here
Nice compilation dude 💙✨️
The fact Ogre Battle 64 is included in this list makes me happy.
Forest temple's soundtrack is so creepy. Perfection.
Never played Bomberman 64 but Blue Resort is oddly enthralling
I can't convey just how enjoyable this was while i was studying. Amazing video and great editing!
I love listening to these OST after a long day at work!
I love listening to this ost DURING a long day at work! :P

Did a mushroom trip with this video playing in the background. It goes without saying that it was a magical experience. Thank you Nintendo
Man idk but that star fox planet select song just got to me 😢i miss my childhood so much
You may not have a lot of subscribers, but that's ok! Thank you for a wonderful compilation! So many memories!
Two seconds and it had already started great.
I have so much memories on N64, so I liked this compilation right away haha
19:40 Fortune Teller 2 sound like FFT such a good series, whish they'd fully cross them over, tactics ogre close as we got.
thank you soo much for the 4 hour music, soo many nostalgia... I have some tear too.
I have listened to lots of N64 playlists and you have hit the nail on the head with this one. Love the inclusion of Dr. Mario and Quest 64!
Closed the playlist in the most amazing way! Thank you for this
Awesome Nintendo 64 nostalgic playlist

That controller in Port 3 on Super Mario 64 in the background is mildly distracting mind!
😅
Huge nostalgia hit with Toad Highlands from Mario Golf. Thanks!
Tell Eric he did a good job as a producer. 10/10 would listen again.
Quest 64 Dondoran Castle always hit different for me as a kid. Well done sir.
By far the best compilation of N64 music
Blue Resort, hell yeah

I love this SO much. Bringing it all back...
