Official Nintendo 64 Appreciation Thread

[WhitestKidUKnow]

I've been playing a lot of the good old N64 since I've come back to school. Appreciate it's greatness here.

[SteveHolt]

i just bought a n64 bundle off ebay last week: nintendo 64, one controller, madden 64, wrestlemania 2000, mario kart 64, super mario 64, AND zelda: oot. best thing was that it was only 70 dollars with shipping! i've been playing it non stop since the weekend

[gloriousmuse]

My system broke (or so my mom says) not too long ago but thank god for emulators that I've been playing Mario 64 and Zelda: OoT

YES! YES! YES!

[OdeToTheSun]

I haven't played mine in a while. I think I may need to.

[holyballs]

in my house we 360 and wii, but honestly i still only play 64.

donkey kong 64 and super smash bros are all you need

[cscwell107]

Pokemon Snap FTW!

[TMS2787]

My girlfriend bought a N64 over Christmas break and we were playing it non-stop but have since not played it very much but man! WCW/nWO Revenge is such a fun game.

[amysaurus]

Original Super Smash is where it's at.

[amaezing19]

I never stopped appreciating it!

[MADSTA]

Still have mine. My friend's mom sold hers without asking, I'd FLIP SHIT.
Kirby and the Crystal Shards, Super Smash Bros, Pokemon Stadium and Puzzle league, all the Zelda games (most notably OoT), and Mario Party... such great games for this system.

[Kbm600]

Original Super Smash is where it's at.

So true.

I also adored Mario 64, so addicted to that game.

So many great games came on that system. I remember first playing Pokemon Stadium and being amazed that I could get my lvl. 100 Blastoise on the big screen.

[voncorn]

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask would be my favorite N64 game, with Perfect Dark very close behind.

Let's share some of the more obscure games for this system, who here was played Buck Bumble?

[WhitestKidUKnow]

I've never played back bumble, but am all about megaman 64 and castlevania

[LamarVannoy]

best game console ever invented. Super Smash Bros, Mario Party, Mario Kart and Super Mario were so much fun.
i dont know what happened to mine, but i can still play Mario Kart on my computer.

[WhitestKidUKnow]

Bringing my 64 to school was one of the best ideas ever. I'm basically the coolest kid on my floor because of it hahahaha

[S/T]

<3 Mario Golf.

[wickedmajestic]

i just got done playin me some n64. quality system.

I would think you would need a gun to steal from someone like that. You are lucky. I played a healthy amount of Zelda and Mario 64 over xmas break.

[voncorn]

San Francisco Rush 2049 was the best multiplayer game back in the day, hands down. I had it for the Dreamcast, but I heard the N64 version was nearly exact as the DC version.

rush had some great jams on it

[JustSway]

Ive still got my clear blue N64 set up. I might have to fire it up tomorrow.

i must say thank you for starting this thread just recently. i just started looking for one because i've started playing my 64 like mad lately. so glad i never got rid of it. i just have to go buy another super smash brothers now that i think about it.

The original Super Smash Bros. is practically unplayable now that I've played Melee and Brawl so much. If there's one series where its sequels are far better, it'd be this one.

[ouroboros85]

i would for sure have to agree with you. when i first started playing brawl when i had my wii, i was blown away. link will always be my favorite character to be.

Yes.

[QuikTrig]

griffey was amazing.

but i think that WCW vs NWO was massively underated as a multiplayer game. sting was a fucking beast.

[Maxwell]

I still randomly shout out F-Zero X commentator quotes, 'YOU'RE WAY OUT IN FRONT'

Yes.

Haha, best theme song ever

YES! YES! YES!

QFT.


You cannot argue with the N64 kid.

[more heart]

Man I remember the days of the 64

[Bloodsucker II]

N64 was honestly life changing. So many awesome memories revolving around the 64.

[BauerFTW]

Maybe one of the best IMO:

[mattybobviously]

Super Mario 64 speed runs are my life.

[WhitestKidUKnow]

Ocarina of Time speed runs are my life.

[WhitestKidUKnow]

I disagree sooooooo strongly with this.

[screamoutmyname]

n64 is what me and my best friend at school do in our spare time.

hangtime, ken griffey jr. major league baseball, goldeneye, cruisin the world, no mercy.

i love n64... greatest system ever, and i'll defend that until the day i die.

[WhitestKidUKnow]

N64 is the fucking console of our generation. Last night I didn't go to parties or get drunk. I played fucking Diddy Kong Racing and Super Smash Brothers for hours on end.

[billyboatkid]

Man I loved the 64.

Anyone ever play Glover?! I used to enjoy that when I was younger, along with DK64 and others.

[Kid Defender]

Shadows of the Empire!

[alert=danger]

Someone left an N64 in our Common room, so before anyone else went in i stole it and took it home!

Love that machine.
Goldeneye FTW!
Many nights spend playing that game!

Or Mario Cart on 4 Player, such fun!

[Nourez]

Smash Bros. + GoldenEye = awesome party.

[Facemelter42]

My girlfriend bought a N64 over Christmas break and we were playing it non-stop but have since not played it very much but man! WCW/nWO Revenge is such a fun game.

You are absoltely right. my top 5 games from that system would be: super smash bros, star fox 64, super mario 64, WCW/NWO revenge, and zelda: the ocarina of time. but there are countless games that were amazing

Ahh! StarFox 64, I want to get that one and GoldenEye 007. Such a great system.

[BJW7191]

Original Super Smash is where it's at.
qft. im also a huge fan of mario kart. so much fun playing with all your buds drunk. both games are a great way to highlight a drunk night

zelda is sooo much fun, i always enjoy it

[BJW7191]

wcw/nwo world tour is the legitness

[MIKEY_HORROR]

Ken Griffey Jrs Major League Baseball was the shit!!..and WCW/NWO was as well..

[BJW7191]

Ken Griffey Jrs Major League Baseball was the shit!!..and WCW/NWO was as well..

that was a great game... split finger was impossible to hit if the pitcher was good at it. start pitch high and just drag it all the way to the bottom of the plate and nobody could hit it

[MIKEY_HORROR]

that was a great game... split finger was impossible to hit if the pitcher was good at it. start pitch high and just drag it all the way to the bottom of the plate and nobody could hit it

haha I know!

and I would always use Tim Wakefield and knuckle ball it..those were so hard to hit.

[Taniam]

i think we can all agree that super mario kart was AWESOME

[BJW7191]

wakefields knuckle and cones splitter were the two most impossible pitches to hit

[BJW7191]

i think we can all agree that super mario kart was AWESOME
so amazing... everyone is so much fun starting from snes to the wii... all of em are equally fun to play

[TheOtherAndrew]

Starfox 64 may be my favorite game of all time.

[BJW7191]

that was a fun game

"do a barrel roll"

[NoOneRunsFaster]

I recently started playing my 64 again also. THQ's wrestling are the shit. I own all 3 WCW Games as wells as the two WWF ones. Griffey baseball was the shit.

My prized posession is Mario Tennis which I just got on ebay for 11 dollars.

Who wouldn't love online Goldeneye?

[Undue Noise]

Lylat Wars was amazing, as are many others games already mentioned.
Banjo-Kazooie was so much fun to play.

[ohLOOKitsLEAH]

BUMP.
BUMPBUMPBUMP.
This just needs to get going again.

... I like Pokemon Snap.
:$

[TheOtherAndrew]

I just spent the last two weeks playing Donkey Kong 64 and Super Mario 64 and no woman has ever satisfied me this much.

[WhitestKidUKnow]

I've been playing so much star fox 64 lately. the other day I finally medalled on all levels on expert. I felt so proud of myself.

[Bloodsucker II]

Last night I played Super Smash and Mario Kart until 7 in the morning. It was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[S9Dallasoz]

Now that's an accomplishment. I don't remember what the name of the level before venom on the left side of the solar system is, but that was nearly impossible to score a medal at. DO A BARREL ROLL!

[WhitestKidUKnow]

area six hahahaha. it is the mother of all button mashing levels on all games ever hahaha. you die sooo much, but if you don't and have a solid run you can get like 350 kills there.

[S9Dallasoz]
