The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, without a doubt.

Deexan · 08-30-2012, 06:35 AM

When I sold my N64, many moons ago, I loved Goldeneye so much that I couldn't bear to be parted with it. The cartridge has resided in my sock drawer for the last decade.

I'd like to answer Tolkien's question with something else but I didn't own the console long enough to have any other true favourites. One of the WWF games it had was pretty awesome, from what I can remember.

Obviously GoldenEye is #1, but if I had to choose a #2, it would be Super Smash Bros.

Tolkien · 08-30-2012, 11:59 AM

Okay, I'm gonna shame myself here and say that from the time that N64 was released until the day it was retired... I never once played Super Smash Bros. Honestly, I've never played that game. I've played sooooo many others, heck maybe 90% of the games ever released on N64, and I owned all of them. But I never owned, rented or even tried that one once, sadly.

**JBond** · 08-30-2012, 03:16 PM

I rented it with friends once. Fun game.

FranklinTard · 08-30-2012, 03:57 PM

I have played far too much smash brothers, probably the best overall game on the system.

But ill take Mario kart but only battling, racing is lame.

Perfect dark multiplayer is a lot more fun than goldeneye though, sad truth.

**JBond** · 08-30-2012, 04:36 PM

No, it's true. Perfect dark had AI players and slo-mo.

To make you feel better, I've never played a single Zelda or Final Fantasy game.

**JBond** · 08-30-2012, 10:21 PM

That doesn't make ANYONE feel better.

Neverending · 08-30-2012, 11:00 PM

I mostly played Sega Genesis for the bulk of the `90s. Super Mario, Star Fox, Tetris, and that duck shooting game are the only classic Nintendo games I have played.

Justin · 08-30-2012, 11:04 PM

Perfect Dark also had some of the best weaponry.

Neverending · 08-30-2012, 11:15 PM

Perfect Dark was the poor man's Tomb Raider.

**JBond** · 08-30-2012, 11:27 PM

Star Fox was awesome. Both of them.

Justin · 08-30-2012, 11:40 PM

I had two Rumble Packs.

Neverending · 08-30-2012, 11:46 PM

OH. I forgot to mention that Mike Tyson game. Is that considered a classic?

**JBond** · 08-31-2012, 12:23 AM

I got sick of the rumble packs very fast.

Tolkien · 08-31-2012, 04:16 AM

Same here. But now all controllers have rumble-capabilities, so...

Boro · 08-31-2012, 07:08 AM

Hard to pick one. JFG, Zelda, Smash Bros, and Star Fox were all great.

Nilade · 08-31-2012, 10:12 AM

I had R.O.B. when I first got my NES. It actually came with R.O.B. (robotic operating buddy) and the light gun. It also came with Gyromite (a R.O.B. game) and Duck Hunt. The first game I purchased (or my parents purchased for me) was Super Mario Brothers.
