Hi everyone,

As someone whom grow up with Playstation I never had the chance to play any N64 games. I know there are alot of nice N64 games out there but unfortunately I have no time to play them all.
So to get started I made a list of 4 games that got me interested. The games that I selected are in my opinion (beside goldeneye) most praised on the internet.

I would like to know which game you suggest as my first N64 game.


Thanks to all!

In my very own personal order of preference (increasing difficulty too):

1. Mario 64.
2. Banko Kazooie.
3. TLoZ Ocarina of Time.
4. TLoZ Majora's Mask. (Not on my preferred TLoZ games list).

Mario 64 will always be a timeless game, imo. Ocarina of Time is also beloved, but when I think of the essential N64 experience, I think of Mario 64 every time.

I don't like your list much, this list is better, so in no particular order

Mario 64
Conker's bad fur day
Mariokart 64
Tetrisphere
1080 snowboarding

I wanted to include Conker's bad fur day but did not do so to keep the list small as possible.

Last year I finished Mario odyssey so I am afraid that it may have ruined Mario64 for me.

There are a lot of games that you might enjoy playing and even if you've checked the games out, see if those games have a hack, like the multi-player Mario 64 or Banjo & Kazooie in Mario 64.

From your four, start with Mario 64, then Banjo, then Ocarina, and MM last.

From that list:

1st) Conker's Bad Fur Day
2nd) Banjo Kazooie
3rd) Majora's Mask
4th) OOT
5th) Mario 64.

Not on the that list, I'd also recommend:
Paper Mario
Pokemon Stadium (if you like Pokemon)
Pokemon Snap
Kirby and the Crystal Shards

Don't think Mario 64 has aged well at all IMO, lot of small issues with it since 3D Mario (and 3D gaming in general) has evolved so much. If you've played modern 3D Mario stuff before Mario 64, you'll probably be disappointed/turned off.

I can’t enjoy racing or sport games for long

I don't blame you; how about games from the Blitz series? Personally, I only like sports when I'm playing or betting, but Blitz makes football fun.

If the Rams win right now, you need to play Blitz.

Ooops, it was Da Rams.
