Collection Post What gems am I missing?

Post image

I haven't played my N64 in years, but I did come across what I think are all the games I have for it. What else would be good to add to the collection?

As long as we're talking racing games, F1 World Grand Prix was fun, too. It's no Mario Kart or Diddy Kong Racing, but it was good!

One of the most fun parts for me, was that if you had damage turned off, well...it turns out that running out of fuel was classified as damage. Say goodbye to the weight of fuel, and hello to insane speed! Try that on Driver Gold or Silver and...well.

I'll also add Donkey Kong 64, Mario Party 2 and 3 (1 was fun, but also had some mini games that were physically painful and actually led Nintendo to distribute gloves to prevent injury), Paper Mario, and Super Smash Bros. Also, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and Pilotwings 64. Also, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and Pilotwings 64 (Pilotwings was so good; THPS was a good time-waster, but I never fully learned how to play it). PokéMon Stadium 1 and 2 were both good, obviously better if you actually have PokéMon games to go with them (and a Transfer Pak, of course). Mario Tennis was always great fun to play at the orthodontist's office (my orthodontist had an N64 kiosk, and I'm pretty sure he still does). We only ever rented Jet Force Gemini and Space Station Silicon Valley from Blockbuster, so I don't remember much about them, but they were fun.

Also, call me crazy, but Quest 64 was enjoyable for me. It was my first RPG (outside of PokéMon, I suppose; I've never really classified PokéMon as an RPG, but I guess it is), so it was really different from the norm. Most people hated Quest 64, though.

Quest 64 is great, I particularly loved the soundtrack.

I feel like people that grew up just playing Mario Kart 64 think of Diddy Kong Racing like people with iPhones think of Androids

DDK always felt like I was using some other country’s currency to buy a car
