I just got an N64 from a Lubbock flea market for $8.


My friend gave me 5 games to start with but it's been forever since I've played so I'm not sure what other games to get.

Nerds? a little help please?

True, but it was the first one, bound to have some kinks. Just proves Nintendo is an innovator (first to introduce rumble, first to have cartridge save, first to have shoulder buttons, etc etc)

I got pretty far into it, twice, and it's not that it was too hard, it's that it was too hard for no reason. Like what was wrong with the save system in oot that they had to change it up and make trek your ass all over the map just so you could stand in a certain place to play a stupid song, if you wanted to save your game? What was thee point of making the game a convoluted mess, wheres the payoff there? In other words, I enjoyed the gameplay- its a shame there was an overwhelming amount of stupid, bullshit, nonsense, hoop-jumping sidequests and lame as fuck player limitations that said gameplay was almost an afterthought.

All the classic were already mentioned but there's still a few games that were left out:

Mario Tennis
Wave Race 64
WWF No Mercy - best of the THQ wrestling games
Turok 2(for the multiplayer)
San Francisco Rush 2049
NFL Blitz
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater

The only good RPGs released on the N64:
Ogre Battle 64
Paper Mario

The Star Wars games were fun back then but I doubt they aged well. Played Shadows a few months ago and it wasn't nearly as fun as I remembered:
Star Wars: Rogue Squadron

Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire
