time to get N or get out
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
Nintendo 64 games it’s about time you
showed up Fox for this list we’re
sticking to one game per franchise and
this rule will also apply to any
spiritual successors but number 10
Star Wars Rogue Squadron kicking off our
list is a visit to the galaxy far far
away
based on the novel and comics that bear
similar names this aerial combat game is
set between a new hope and The Empire
Strikes Back and focuses on Luke
Skywalker leaving an elite fighter
squadron in an effort to defeat the
Galactic Empire it was notably one of
the first games on the n64 to make use
of the expansion pack allowing for
higher resolution gameplay finally nice
work rogue squadron
[Music]
number nine Paper Mario spoiler alert
you’re gonna see a lot of Mario on this
list considering this is Nintendo that
shouldn’t be too surprising though
Paper Mario was released towards the end
of n64 ‘the lifespan but it’s still
highly regarded for its 2d animated
charm mixed in with a very accessible
RPG system making this game ideal for
RPG fans mostly because there weren’t
any other good RPGs on the system no no
we said good RPGs number eight banjo
kazooie one of the best games on the
system came from Nintendo’s golden boys
at the time rare kazooie was a 3d
platformer which put you in the yellow
shorts of a bear with a bird in his
backpack that was on a quest to save his
sister from a rhyming witch
also worth mentioning is the game sequel
banjo tooie which would have made this
list in a much higher slot if they had
gone that stop and swap mechanic to work
number seven Mario Party 2 the first
Mario Party game was a health hazard for
its stick rotation minigames but Mario
Party 2 remains to be the best in the
series for one reason the minigames are
the most fun this four player party game
requires strategy and scheming with
others to ensure that you come out on
top which is probably why it also gained
the unofficial title on the Internet as
the game that ruins friendships number
six Star Fox 64 known as lylat wars in
Europe this reboot of the SNES classic
space shooter was not only a vast
improvement but also remains as the best
game in the franchise it’s also notably
one of the few games on this list that
is aged quite well it was one of the
first Nintendo games to include voice
acting which also led it to be one of
the most quoted for its cheesy lines why
are you gonna listen to that monkey
I’m fine about hereby number five Mario
Kart 64 the best racing game on the
system and the most notorious for its
incredibly competitive multiplayer this
game was revolutionary for being very
easy to pick up while also being greatly
rewarding for those who were pro at it
so much so that many companies over the
years have attempted to copy its formula
though few ever capture the charm of the
original Diddy Kong Racing was good but
this is still better
[Music]
number four Super Mario 64 nobody and we
mean nobody can make launch titles as
amazing as Nintendo Super Mario 64 was
not only one of the best launch titles
ever made it was a major revolution in
gaming utilizing precise analog controls
an almost perfect camera system and
visuals at the time that had never been
seen before the n64 may have had a tiny
library at launch but with this game
nobody was bored number three Super
Smash Brothers a crossover game that
originally started out as a small
project Smash Bros ended up spawning one
of Nintendo’s most successful franchises
it was a four player multiplayer game
that spawned a whole new sub-genre of
fighting games known as brawlers
featuring most of Nintendo’s popular
mascots beating the crap out of each
other for some amazing multiplayer fun
[Applause]
number two Goldeneye double-oh-seven
the most successful licensed game ever
despite coming out two years after its
film counterpart Goldeneye instantly
became a classic and rares best game yet
the biggest reason for its success was
its multiplayer mode which amazingly was
added as an afterthought yet it became a
pioneer for console multiplayer or more
specifically console first-person
shooters this was the game that was at
every n64 party before we get to number
one here are a few honorable mentions
the one per franchise rule won’t apply
here
[Music]
[Music]
number one The Legend of Zelda Ocarina
of Time taking the top spot is the game
that is not only the best on the system
but it’s arguably also one of the best
games of all time and the biggest reason
for that lies in the gameplay with a
flawless combat system an amazing
lock-on mechanic that few games can
replicate a day-and-night system with
changes to NPC behavior ocarina was a
baffling achievement the game is a true
testament to how video games should be
made one that still stands up to games
being released to this day do you agree

wearing out your analog sticks for more
revolutionary top 10s published every
