Games played: Uh oh. I said that my games played section would be back with a vengeance this week but it's not. All the games covered are named in the video. Well, I guess I can say that Mario Kart 64 is the game played at the beginning for whoever may not know that :)
"From downtown"
Bird! Do a Saturn games even haters will hate please!
BTW Never heard of Mischief Makers but damn did it "peak my interest". Definitely going to play that sucker.
You... are cool. SUBSCRIBED!
i need this section back pls
N64 is great. Haters are trippin …
Well I mean I understand the hate for it the n64 aged like milk compared to the other consoles of the time and the controller is kinda trash but you can just use a brawler controller instead if you don’t like it it also has an absolute ton of bad games and n64 is the worst port for 3rd party games but the first party games are great on the console it’s a good console but it’s definitely lacking more then some other options from the same time period
@@pepperidgefarms1772 especially when you look into the Saturn Library
@@pepperidgefarms1772the controllers fine other than the slippy joystick.
@@pepperidgefarms1772 The N64 is not without its issues, but what are you comparing it to, the PS1? The Saturn? The cartridges allow for lightning fast load times, and there are a bunch of games which have aged very well, most of them being first party or second party Nintendo titles. N64 consoles are also just physically more durable and long lasting than the PS1 and the Saturn because of the lack of moving parts, with the exception of the control sticks, and first party memory paks (which are a pain in the ass to repair once the battery fails).
I have tried to get into Mario Sunshine, and Mario Galaxy 1 and 2, and I have always felt that these games are inferior to the original Mario 64, and that's not a controversial opinion, at least when compared to Mario Sunshine. Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 are much more highly regarded, but I still just haven't been able to get into either of them. The control just feels less precise, Mario feels slower, the gameplay is more scripted and linear, and doesn't reward experimentation as much, and I really am not a fan of the way you're supposed to use the Wiimote to do the spin move, or to shoot those little colored stars.
I have a third party memory card for my N64 which is over 25 years old, and I was able to replace the battery with a one or two dollar watch battery I found at my local supermarket, and all I needed was a small screwdriver to be able to do the replacement.
You can buy replacement control stick parts for surprisingly cheap, and it's not especially difficult to do the repair yourself. All you really need is the right screwdriver, and you can also just buy a modern third party N64 controller like a Retro Fighter 64, or look for refurbished original N64 controllers (I'm planning to sell some of my extra ones on eBay once I get them fixed up).
@@macaroni745 that slippy joystick is absolute murder when you're hands get sweaty.. the brawler has a rubberized joystick like old ps3 controllers.
so glad I randomly came across this. superior editing, hilarious script. reminding me of playing n64. happy to subscribe!
Welcome to the channel!
And best expressions ever!
Happy to see my favorite N64 game Ogre Battle 64 make the list! In fact, quick little story for you (😉): I worked as a teller at a bank back when OB64 came out. During a slow work day I thought I’d be clever and print an online guide for the game with the bank’s paper and ink. Little did I realize just how many pages, detailing units, items, and strategies, comprised this guide. I hastily had to reload the printer with paper as it continuously printed what turned out to be a rather thick tome for about 10 minutes or so. How I didn’t get caught or in any trouble still baffles me to this day!
I did that in college computer lab for a GameFaq of GBA Breath of Fire, didn’t realise how many pages it would take 😑 it took forever!
cubicle boy
I've always loved the 64. It's just so fun and toyetic. It being the last cart based console other than the switch also makes it unique. Or maybe I just really, really like 3D platformers. Could be that too,
switch uses cards, not catridges
Man, my friends and i used to sing that NBA Hangtime menu “song” all the time. Also we memorized the corny rap. “3point threat no sweat you can bet, back you down fadeaway all net haaaaangtime y’all”
I am a member of some retro handheld forums and subreddits and invariably someone asks "can this cheaper device play N64?" And normally the answer is "some games not all, you might need to fiddle with some settings" and then they go "No, I am only interested in Mario Kart 64". That game is insanely good and even nowadays so popular it never ceases to amaze me.
Yeah, the newer Mario Kart is just not as fun for some reason
1:16 Someday I hope we can expand on the R. Bird lore and finally learn who Timmy really was...
Timmy isn't a real person but a metaphor of the parts of childhood we left behind while growing up in an attempt to be viewed as more mature. This Timmy got rid of his Sega because "videogames are for children" and started going by Tim. When we self actualize and understand being an adult means we get to choose what we enjoy, a past world of things left behind becomes ours for rediscovery.
Would be awesome if we could watch you stream these kind of games from time to time. Great video
Not enough people talk about Rocket: Robot on Wheels. It's such a classic, same with Duck Dodgers! Both are getting pretty pricey though!
I always found Rocket and Sly 1 interesting as Sucker Punch's later games while fine for non-open worlds those two titles are their 3D platformers. Rocket has some charm, mechanics and personality that's definitely worth it for platformer fans.
Absolutely, but he made it pretty clear at the start that this that it was a list for people who hate the controller. And why do so many hate the controller? The number one reason is the horribly aged stick, with the foggy graphics and 3 handles on the controller being a fairly close 2nd and 3rd. With these games you can eliminate some of those annoyances. 2D games don't suffer from the fog, and in some of these you use (or can use) the D-Pad. As for Star Fox 64, using the stick is a little less annoying since it's only used for moving your ship and not for platforming. Can't say that for Paper Mario, but it still eliminates the fog issue being a 2D game.
*Edit:* Foggy graphics are obviously not a controller issue, so my bad. Stupid me just ended up grouping it in with the controller issues in my mind for some reason, but it is another reason people hate on N64 anyway.
Mischief Makers! So underrated!
Starfox 64 is amazing! Played it the first time as an adult and really liked it!
I was so glad to see Mischief Makers on the list. Such a great game that rarely gets mentioned.
I might have gotten into that game if jump could have been mapped to a button, and there were a few other things that I found a bit annoying, like the shaking mechanic, and some of the sounds. I really cant' stand having to press up on the D pad to jump! >:(
The game definitely looks great and I do respect it. In hindsight, it's clear that the N64 was actually very good at doing 2D, and it's a shame that there weren't more 2D games (or games which blend 2d and 3d graphics) made for the system. Yoshi's Story, for example, looks absolutely amazing, and is a solid game, though most would agree that they would have preferred a more challenging game which was more similar to Yoshi's Island in its gameplay.
2D games really weren't that popular on other systems as well. Even great 2D games like Castlevania Symphony of the Night (for PS1) didn't sell well, despite receiving critical acclaim, and the poor performance of even extremely well made 2D games really contributed to scaring developers away from investing in making them. It took years before 2D game development became normal again, proving that game developers probably never should have completely abandoned it in the first place.
Great video RB, did some chuckling. No doubt I'll be singing your theme tune in my head for the next fews days as per usual. Keep up the good work, I love this channel!
I love that Falco's text on screen said "This is horrible" right when you said "It's not that bad".
How about F-Zero X? The speed on this game is really immense despite the visual sacrifice. The music rocks as well.
The N64 has a lot of great racing games that even haters might enjoy: Beetle Adventure Racing, Wave Race, Diddy Kong Racing, F-Zero X, and many more. Also, how can you not love Banjo-Kazooie?
I didn’t care for the N64 when it launched, but eventually got it for the racing games, Diddy Kong, Wave Race, etc. Paper Mario is the game that makes me nostalgic for the system.
If you liked the racing games on it, Road Rash 64 and F-Zero X are my suggestions
Paper Mario sucked almost as much as Ocirana of Time
@@Agent-vj3nslol troll harder next time
@@HollowRick ok
ruclips.net/video/LjUgz5FHR90/видео.htmlsi=xnlDJoKmRE25rFZt
Lol
@@HollowRick it's true tho
I just beat Ogre Battle the other night and immediately started a new game. It's pretty much the best N64 game other than WWF No Mercy! I'm glad you included it!
As a proud N64 hater, this video spoke to my soul 😅. Your list seems legit though, I picked up a copy of Mischief Makers last month. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for Ogre Battle 64 and Paper Mario.
haha :)
I would also add Road rash 64, and Star Soldier vanishing earth (the only overhead spaceship shmup on the N64) to the list. Those are two games that I've spent many hours playing, and still enjoy to this day. Thanks for another entertaining and enlightening video!
Road rash 64 could be a contender for the most enjoyable replayable game of all time
@@Gutsyredcoat Road Rash 64 is one of the most entertaining 3D retro games out there. I love how the game is unintentionally hilarious. It was supposed to be this badass hardcore combat racing game, and it does succeed at being a worthy sequel to previous Road Rash games, and is a solid combat racer, but... There's something about the combat, the sound effects, and the physics which comes across as incredibly absurd to me, and I know I'm not the only one who finds it hilarious, making the game likely to be well worth playing, if only for a few hours.
@@syncmonism i have always found it intentionally hilarious. The devs definitely had good senses of humor. With rider names like stinky, dirty ed, big jim, lucky gene etc. The fact that there is a giant banana as a weapon, the ridiculous sound effects of characters all the "whoooooaaaa! Dohh! Gaaaahhh!" The silly consolation prizes while calling you a loser like a pet rock, stick of gum, the shit talking the mechanics and cops do if you total your bike or get busted, the 4X damage multiplier that just sends doods flying in one hit and of course the insane mode you unlock when you finish big game with the 300mph bikes that are impossible to control, as well as the scooter mode which just makes for a great slow moving race to just beat the hell out of each other. The combat, beating everyone off their bikes and racking up your rap sheet, hitting pedestrians, taking out cops and damaging cars is way too satisfying. The physics make for some hilarious wrecks that many can never be duplicated again, making every race unique in that way.
Good list! I owned Mischief Makers, Star Fox 64 and Paper Mario 64. Mischief Makers was the only one I couldn't complete as a kid as some of the later levels got fairly tricky. Star Fox 64 and Paper Mario 64 will always be classics in my book. Many N64 games are good, simple fun.
I never met anyone who actively hated the N64. My friends and family really enjoyed the games as much as I did. We would play Mario Kart 64, Diddy Kong Racing, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Smash Bros, and the Mario Party games constantly.
The one of a kind Timmy autographed mean bean machine cart is the holy grail of video games
I'd add:
-WWF No Mercy
-Mario Party 2
-NFL Blitz
-Mario Tennis
-Snowboard Kids
I'm so happy to see Mischief Makers get some light here - that was a title I rented back when it was brand new. I have this memory of visiting a game store that would let you rent games, and my brother asked me at the counter if there was anything I wanted to pick out, and I just saw the Mischief Makers box sitting on the counter there and spontaneously picked that out. It also came with the manual and I just fell in love with the character designs and overall charm of the game. It's definitely a game I wish would come back someday like the other Treasure titles have. It's one of those special nostalgic experiences I find comfort in revisiting every once in a while.
Oh yeah I forgot to mention I wanted to give a shout-out to Killer Instinct Gold as a possible candidate for this list - it's another title that uses the D-pad and it's a really fun arcade title in the classic fighting game style. I love playing around with the ludicrous speed + full power options.
Starfox ( lylat wars ) is an absolute masterpiece; it basically had every scifi action trope and reference in it + it had that great split path feature with different outcomes
I always like my N64 because I have quite a few hidden gems on it plus this was a good quality four player machine always had fun playing Diddy Kong and Wave Race on it
With four players it's always a blast!
I am an unapologetic lover of NBA Hangtime on the N64-it’s a near flawless arcade port that served for countless hours of fun in our household as we became older kids. And one of my favorite games of all time is Castlevania for N64, which is often shunned as terrible by the haters, but it’s still a heck of an first 3D adventure game with a surprising amount of homage to the prior entries in the series.
I also really love Castlevania but haven't tried NBA Hangtime. I'll have to try it!
@@grawman67 if you like NBA Jam, Hangtime is really like Jam, but on steroids in all the right ways. You can create your own player and by winning games gain attribute points to continually beer the character up for lots of replay value. Cannot recommend it enough!
@@BrianJones-wk8cx Ooh, sounds awesome!! I grew up with Jam on SNES so I think this would be great to play with my dad. Thanks!
It wasn't until coming across your videos in the past couple weeks that I even knew there was hate for the N64 controller. You get a D-pad, but also an analog stick that you don't have to stretch your thumb to its limits to reach 🤷. I always thought it felt great and had an effective set of buttons.
Yeah, growing up I never knew people didn't like it either. Then I went on the internet years later and saw all the hate it gets.
Love the N64. It's not everyone's favorite but I adore it. Besides the analog stick grinding itself to dust, I actually really like the controller and feel like it's both versatile and really precise.
Some of my favorites include:
All the Cruis'n titles
Turok
Perfect Dark (I like the controls for shooters on the system)
Paper Mario
Tactics Ogre
Worms Armageddon
Spider-Man (even if the PS1 version is better)
Diddy Kong Racing
Mario 64
Mario Kart 64
Both Zeldas
Wave Race 64
The Mario Party games
Bomber Man 64
Sin and Punishment
F-Zero X
Sorry for the huge list! I love a lot of the games
No Golden Eye?
I'm amazed at how consistently funny and uplifting this channel is. When I need a pick me up, Retro Bird never disappoints.
Glad to hear it! That's the goal!
Hybrid heaven a hidden gem RPG on the N64. No one ever seems to mention it
When you hear a person say. "Bring it back to it's roots" They really mean Back To The Good Ones. I think it's more like," Bring it back to it's Trunks!
Example of this is Sonic 1 is a root. Sonic 2 or maybe 2 and 3 are trunks. Then some branches and then a bunch of dead leaves that make us want to go back to our Trunks!
Subbed; love the character you’ve created and the content in general.
Welcome to the channel!
Character? That's just him being himself!
This list needs a racing game, for which I nominate Hot Wheels Turbo Racing - an super fun pick-up-and-play racing game that nobody every talks about.
This was my first time coming across your channel. I found the video very entertaining. I'll have to check out some of your other videos. Keep up the good work!
Thank you and glad to have you here!
How can you not mention some of the greatest wrestling games of all time when talking about the N64? WWF No Mercy? WCW vs The World?
My favorite console of all time and my new favorite youtuber :) Can't wait to watch it.
Always look forward to Fridays and some of my favorite retro content.
One thing I hate about the N64 is when it accidently falls over that the ram will come out while it's on just leaving your console the old black screen of death. It happen to 2 consoles.
The RAM? Do you mean the game cartridge, or have you actually had the Expansion Pak fall out? (I thought it was wedged in too tightly for that to happen.)
The N64 did have a lot of underrated titles on it. When I think of N64 I always think 3D platformer system
yeah...3D platformers....I never cared for those...I guess that's why I don't like N64.
@BenDallas and that's exactly why I love the Nintendo 64 and despise the XBOX 360, because N64 has lots of my favorite genre and XBOX 360 barely has any at all.
@@polycube868 I can respect that, all I remember everyone wanting to play on N64 was Mario Kart, and then Gamecube it was more of the same, Mario Kart and Pacman Racing... So actually I'd rather play 3D platformers than Kart Racing games lol....I truly despise the Mario Kart stuff cuz that's all anyone ever wanted to play, and I was like, hey there's a lot of other great games can't we try other genres? 😝 I was just never good at the 3D platformers though but yeah I'd rather play those than Kart racers any day hehehe
D-Pad or not, I always have my left hand over the that left handle. Although the D-Pad on the n64 is criminally under used for how solid and good it actually is.
Well I gotta say, I unsubbed awhile back because I was just trying to stay away from RUclips and was slimming down my subscriptions. That was clearly a mistake because you just won me back. Great video!
Glad to have you back!
The dream scenario growing up is to have a ps1 and a friend who has a n64. Most good n64 games are multi-player party games. But you obviously spotted some single player gems too 👍
Yeah, it can be hard to have two or more current gen consoles when growing up. I was lucky to have the PS1 and then my uncle gave me his N64 when he didn't want it anymore. Otherwise, it would have been years later I would have had one
@@grawman67 I had a gamecube growing up. I then managed to get my hands on a fully functioning ps2 for 50 dollars during the middle of its lifespan!
@@BigmanDogs That's an insane deal! Can't beat that! Both of them are killer systems!
What's really odd is that I only had one friend with a PS1 growing up. I swear I was living in a bubble. Had some great times playing Crash Bandicoot on it with him though.
People hating the N64 are small minded. Like so many things, one people starts it and a bunch getting bigger by the day will jump on the bandwagon. Well, I was (still am) a 3d animator since 1994, familiar with 3d rendering concepts like anti-aliasing, texture filtering, dynamic lighting, etc, even as a kid I knew how many advances the N64 brought to the table. It had Silicon Graphics DNA for a reason. A bunch of haters have ZERO idea whatsoever what these things meant in a home console in 1996. People with a bit more knowledge know the N64 was a tremendous milestone.
PlayStation was better
"Let your hair down like a dork."
Dude..... if we're watching this then we're all dorks. And you know what? I'm a happy dork watching this guys videos. He's funny.
Love love love love blast corps. Didn’t know how to play it as a kid, but as an adult it’s such a great game!
Have you ever beat that game? I think it’s great too but some of those levels are really tough. Also, is there a way to start a new profile on that game?
Blast Corps might just be Rare's most overlooked quality release for the system.
@@RetroBirdGaming I think you’re right. It’s very unique and sometimes I have to be in the right mood to play it, but I’ve had so much fun with that game.
@@brianhatcher2799 I can’t lie, I have never been able to get past this one level about maybe half way through the game. The only thing I’ve found is holding start when you turn on the game will allow you to erase your previous file
@@snarkybu42 Hey, I appreciate that. I’ll have to try that.
For some reason your videos stop appearing in my feed and notifications even though I have the bell on.
I really enjoyed paper mario, I had started playing it years ago, then came back to it and finished it. I´m super proud of it.
Just picked up a copy of Starfox last night and have been wanting to play it for a while. Will definitely keep an eye out for some of the other titles because I enjoy getting ahold of lesser known games that turned out to be great
Beetle Adventure Racing 🙂. Fun and affordable!
Battletanx: Global Assault
Such a gem!
4 player wars with NPCs and everyone on a different team or a 2v2…fps guided missiles and nukes… flattening anyone driving the tiny mototank with a Goliath tank…
Mindless mechanical violence at its peak 😆
your videos have such a chill and informative vibe to them
100% agre on Paper Mario. If you haven't played this game I highly recommend it, I completed it a few years ago and enjoyed every minute of it
Zelda Tears of the Kingdom allows us to shake stuff to un-attach items! Hurray! Great video!
Star fox...drool! Also, every time I see a yellow controller I wonder if it's the DK controller. Great video as always!
How dare the late 90s not have better graphics❤💯
For me the graphics aren't the issue, only the blurry filter they used to smooth them out. It makes your television screen look like it is coated with vaseline.
@@themidcentrist I think that's why he plays on original hardware on a CRT. i play them on a pc and try to limit the filtering and upscaling. now on current-gen hardware on an LCD (Switch) can be pretty bad. especially when it's blown up on a tv in dock mode.
nba hang time is straight up waaaay better than nba jam, the snes version is also very very very very good, this game didn't age at all, you can play it on n64 or ps1 which are both basically arcade perfect
Great video as always! I would love to see a collab between you and Sega Lord X. One SRPG from the 90's that I find to be amazing is the original Vandal Hearts.
Great list! I absolutely loved Mischief Makers as a kid. Picked it up as an adult and I appreciate it even more; nothing beats shake-shaking. Also, the music is amazing!
Yes! Let’s goooo! Perfect end to the week
I know my childhood was filled with obscured camera angles and are mostly just sentiment fun... Im ok with that because the N64 is probably my favorite console overall! Don't hate on ol' 007 and Perfect Dark or Hybrid Heaven! Fun for me anyhow lol
the N64 paper mario might just be my favorite game ever. good to see it on this list
I'm an early bird! Of course my nostalgia is with this one. Star wars racer, wave race of course mario64
I can't hate it but I can't have Nintendo console except post GBA handhelds. Nintendo is simply not my thing but I still enjoy watching videos about Nintendo consoles. Long live RetroBird!
I'd even include F-Zero X as well. What's that?...You know...F-Zero...the racing franchise Nintendo loves.
F-Zero GX emulates beautifully on PC 🙂
Immediately after seeing the title I thought of Starfox 64 and Paper Mario. Great choices!
Gamecube games aged better overall, but I'll always love N64 more.
It was limited in games, but at the time, many were generation-defining experiences that stood as the best entries in their series. OoT was way more impactful than Windwaker or TP, just as Mario 64 was more impactful than Sunshine.
It also kicked off many popular IPs like Smash Bros, Animal Crossing, Mario Party, Banjo, Paper Mario, etc
GC gave us great entries in less popular IPs like Metroid Prime & F-Zero GX, and introduced Pikmin, but at the time they mainly stayed contained among Nintendo fans & didnt have the reach the N64 titles.
N64 also popularized controller features like analog stick, rumble, trigger button, and 4 ports default. Anyway, i still enjoy playing GC games more NOW, but at the time, N64 was more special to me.
"Midway Presents. NBA Hangtime! IT'S IN THE ZONE"
Somethings you just can't forget if you tried.
Honestly, I picked up my N64 solely because I sent my PlayStation in for repair and needed something for the time. All I ever had was 3 games- Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, and Killer Instinct Gold. I love the 64 and have beefed up my collection considerably since.
I loved Hang Time back in the day in the arcade but didn’t remember N64 had a port. I will definitely check it out!
I think one of the most overlooked reasons that N64 games seem so long in the tooth is the controller. I like the bizarre form of the n64 controller more than most, but I think that since it was so different, whether you're playing ports/emulating on a platform with a more modern controller or playing on the original hardware, the controls are just so different than everything else we've been using for the last coupe decades that it feels strange.
I'm honestly rather fond of the early 3d look of 5th gen consoles and pc games. Requires imagination but it's neat seeing how hard some dev's had to work to make something vaguely convincing back then lol. Golden Eye is perhaps my favorite from this console still, something about the gameplay loop never gets old to me(btw use 1.2 control scheme, you'll thank me if you never tried it)
Its your cadence, you do it well.
I love Mischief Makers! I used to play that every day when I came back from school. I was showing it to my friend a couple of years ago and the amount of times he had to listen to "shake shake!"
Waiting for the N64 instead of getting a PlayStation was a huge mistake. PS1 had everything. Just look at the fighting games and RPGs, no comparison. So many landmark games and franchises. The N64 was like a desert compared to PS1.
New sub, love the vids so far. Stoked to hear you talk about all these games especially ogre battle!
Welcome to the channel! Glad to have you here :)
I don't know how anyone can hate N64. I guess I get not liking the look of early 3D but I like it.
Only thing from early 3D gaming I hate is tank controls and not many Nintendo 64 games had it.
@@polycube868 Yeah, tank controls were awful usually, especially in platformers, but they actually work well in horror games like Resident Evil.
Waverace, Blast Corps, Gretzky 3D Hockey and F Zero for me!
Your silly sense of humor and the overall feel of the videos give me good vibes
Glad to hear it! Thanks :)
Bruh i just found your channel and i fw it you talk like a funny science teacher😂
Star Fox 64 is my favorite n64 game of all time. Glad to see it get its flowers!
the N64 is one of the consoles I have zero connection to. As an outsider looking in, it seems like there are about 20-30 noteworthy games, some of which are touted as some of the best games of all time. Yet somehow I just don't care to go back to it.
Well, there isn't time to play everything. So, that can happen. It'll always be there waiting if you ever change your mind though :)
i love my N64❤
cant wait for the next weekend my friends come over and we want to play it
Great video, as usual. I've never understood the complaints about the N64 controller, especially using the joystick. I actually think it's more comfortable than some of the controllers nowadays.
Also, you are spot on about N64 Hangtime! It's my favorite of all the NBA Jam type games. So much fun!
I own every game in this video. And every game in this video it's fun to play. This video gets my seal of approval. Video video video video video video video..................... video
I love the N64. It was my console growing up so I have sentimental feelings but it’s hard to say it is aged well. I think this generation along with the PS1 is the hardest retro gaming to go back to
Starcraft 64 was the most impressive game of that Era it shouldn't even exist, it was mind blowing they had it on the 64
One of my favourite N64 games is Pokemon Stadium.
Destruction Derby 64 & Diddy Kong Racing are two games I can go back and play.
Man Paper Mario was such a fun game. I was so disappointed when the next game in the series I played was Sticker Star for the 3DS.
You never played TTYD? On gamecube? 😮 man you missed out
@@HollowRick Nah. I didn't have a GameCube as a kid
I have one that is the kind of game no one would guess.
An N64 game I can and always will play is Worms Armageddon.
It's one of those things where just looking at it I figured it wasn't for me.
I had some nostagia for it, decided to pay too much for a copy and tried it out and now I've put about 60 hours into it mostly just selecting randomly generated maps and trying to beat the overpowered A.I., beat the story mode and campaigns too. Probably says more about the game overall than it's N64 port but I like playing it that way.
I'd also add F-Zero X and Puzzle League.
I also agree with Mischief Makers, I'm still going back to beat my clear times in that one.
Also 64th like on the video, your welcome
Paper Mario is a great choice, the art style especially lends itself well to having aged so finely
for me its 1080. still never get tired perfecting my racing lines down the mountain and trying to beat old records. which is pretty tough considering I held some former world records back in the day for the game :) still the best technical extreme sports arcade racer imo
also, dont underestimate the value of a good controller when revisiting these games. few years ago I was struggling w my OG tri-prong thinking the console had aged terribly, but in reality the controls were just non responsive due to stick wear. got a new controller and bam - literally a totally different experience
The Nintendo 64.... Has some of my favorite games ever, and holds my favorite gaming memories ever. Goldeneye and Perfect dark were obvious choices, me and my friends played, so so much of the MP.
Now, the best for me is WWF No Mercy, 4 Players, I will never forget the all nighters, pizza parties and snacks that me and my friends always had every weekend when this game came out, it brought us so much joy as wrestling fans back then, and it still holds up today!
You did good. I’ve actually been playing Paper Mario and just beat the toy box level. Such a great game(I beat it before, but wow, that was over 20 years ago!!!😮) And I’ve seen some positive reviews and things said about Mischief Makers but after seeing this video, I’m definitely going to have to get it, so thanks 🙏
Paper Mario really is such a pleasure to play every time.
Hang Time looks awesome.

NHL 99. StarFox. Clay Fighters 63 1/3 OH and 😂 Sculptors Cut had hilarious voice overs played it a lot as a kid man I miss those days
I'm sure people have already mentioned this before. But I am a huge fan of the WCW and WWF games on the N64.
Paper Mario is my favorite game on N64
2:50 the Wii did a lot for that sort of thing.
9:30 I liked „Crystal Warriors“ on the Game Gear very much as a portable version from that genre.
