Especially Superman64, Carmageddon 64, Daikatana, both of the terribad Castlevanias, Mega Man "Almost Legends" 64... Yup, staples of that 64-bit quality.
"A few" being the keyword here. The N64 is "legendary" only for a handful of games (and only in the States, mind you - it bombed everywhere else). Overall the system was mediocre and had severe design flaws, not to mention that its library is miniscule and full of crap with few good games that are far between.You know damn well I'm talking about the good games: Mario 64, DK 64, Banjo 1 and 2, Super Smash, Conker, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Mario Kart 64, Pokemon Snap and Stadium 2, Mario Golf and Tennis, Paper Mario, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, StarFox 64, and then a collection of other games that I like that others may not: Mario Party 2 and 3, Bomberman 64 the second attack, Rogue Squadron, Kirby 64, Sin and Punishment (I don't know if this counts though since it wasn't released here and I didn't get to play until years later when it was released on the Wii VC), and I'm sure there are a few others I'm forgetting.

I would argue that chances are you'll find more good games in a list of 2000 than in a list of 200, but on an individual title basis you are correct. The problem with the N64 was that it was great hardware with a horrible infrastructure built around it. Many of its solutions, especially storage, belonged in the past at that point and although impressive from a technological standpoint and quite standard-setting, it just wasn't a good "machine" as a whole.I think that most of what you said is really subjective. I enjoyed the N64, though the same cannot be said for others. One Man's trash is another man's treasure. Quantity also really has no effect on this when it comes to quality, bringing it back to subjectivity.
