• 1080 Snowboarding - fun fun fun!
  
• AeroFighters Assault (E) - meh.
  
• BattleTanx: Global Assault - meh.
  
• Blast Corps (E) - one of the release titles. Actually not bad, but can be frustrating.
  
• Bomberman 64 (E) - Quite good.
  
• Bomberman 64: The Second Attack (E) - I liked it. Play gets a bit repetitive.
  
• Buck Bumble (E) - decent, if a little over-advertised. Not top-flight by any means
  
• Cruis'n World - to say nothing of the fact that I SUCK at racing games, at least I can say this was somewhat well-made.
  
• Diddy Kong Racing (E) - word of advice: get Mario Kart 64 instead.
  
• Dr. Mario 64 (E) - nothing special: it's basically a 2-1/2D upgrade of the original Dr. Mario.
  
• Duke Nukem 64 (E) - a censored version of Duke Nukem 3D, and really not that good anyway.
  
• Duke Nukem: Zero Hour - a guilty pleasure of mine. Some of Duke's most overlooked one-liners happen in this game. "Pig nuts roasting... as I open fire!"
  
• Earthworm Jim 3D (E) - really not that good.
  
• ECW: Hardcore Revolution (E) - abomination. One of the worst wrestling games ever made. The controls are clunky and confusing.
  
• F1 World Grand Prix - yes, I suck at traditional racing games. Yes, I liked this one. The details they put into this one would really go over well with racing fans.
  
• F-Zero X (E) - as with traditional racing games, I couldn't really "git gud" at this one But it's not a bad game.
  
• FIFA 64 - pretty scuffed compared to future entries, with the only real upside being full licensing from FIFA for a number of national teams, the Premiership, Ligue 1, the Bundesliga, and Serie A. I did in fact own this game.
  
• FIFA '98: Road To The World Cup - a colossal improvement over its predecessor; full licensing for every national team in the world, a much-increased league base (added Spain, Scotland, the Netherlands, Malaysia (why? ), "USA" (which also included three Canadian teams), Brazil, and Sweden.) Owned this one as well.
  
• FIFA World Cup '98: For everything except teams and music, basically a carbon-copy of FIFA '98. Much narrower in its scope obviously.
  
• FIFA '99 (E): A scaled-back version of the PC game. Handles about the same as '98 but has extra features. Ditched Malaysia and added Portugal, plus a "Rest of Europe" division with teams who participated in Champions League, UEFA Cup (as it was then known), and Cup Winners' Cup (which was still around at the time). Solid soundtrack. Would have recommended.
  
• Goemon's Great Adventure: Didn't like this 2 1/2-D platformer quite as much as I did the first N64 Goemon game, but I still did like it. Basically, the third game released in NA of the Goemon series (Legend of the Mystical Ninja for SNES was the first one)
  
• Hybrid Heaven: In spite of clunky play control in the overworld and bad camera handling, I absolutely love this game. The story isn't the most original thing in the world - a race of genetically enhanced clones of alien origin threatening to take over the world - but the details are captivating nonetheless. The music and how it is incorporated is amazing - quite possibly the best music of any third-party N64 game. It is one of the few RPGs for the system, but it combines elements of RPG, action-adventure, and... wrestling! They could have taken the time to research the names of certain moves though.
  
• Jet Force Gemini: This Rare production (not published by Nintendo, but straight Rare) is one of the better third-person shooters for the N64. Granted they did give the female lead a bit of jiggle physics, IYKWIM. 
  
• Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards (E): pretty typical Kirby fare, only in 2 1/2D. The final boss fight is nightmare fuel.
  
• The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask: With its countless sidequests and sense of urgency, this game has just as much replay value as OOT, even if the world is a little smaller. Some aspects of the game are pure nightmare fuel though I still prefer OOT, but it's like... this game was my #2 favourite N64 game behind OOT (#1)! Owned this one and OOT.
  
• Mario Kart 64: Loved this game. Kart-style racing games are much easier for me to handle
  
• Mission: Impossible: Not great. Some of the dialogue was just plain corny.
  
• Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon: This is the game that introduced me to the real names of the characters in the series. (In the SNES game Goemon and Ebisumaru were localised as Kid Ying and Dr. Yang respectively.) But I really liked this game, which unlike its immediate sequel is in true 3D.
  
• Nagano Winter Olympics '98: Got hooked on this game. I especially liked the ski-jumping section.
  
• The New Tetris: SO addictive! I've played this many times on emulators, but I did actually first play it on cartridge.
  
• NFL Quarterback Club '98: I really liked the roster-editing and player-creation functions in this game. The gameplay was nothing too special, though. Actually owned this one.
  
• NHL Breakaway '98: I don't know why they scrapped the prospects and player coach functions in Breakaway '99. Breakaway '98 was actually a very involved game, and I enjoyed it. Owned this one.
  
• Nuclear Strike 64: Clunky, clunky, CLUNKY. Suffered from the same drawbacks as some of the Strike series games for SNES.
  
• Paper Mario (E): An interesting and rather compelling RPG. Would recommend this.
  
• PGA European Tour: Not bad for play control as golf games go. Lots of pros you can play as, or you can create your own.
  
• Quest 64 (E): BORING.
  
• Rainbow Six: A bit buggy when I played it on cartridge.
  
• Shadow Man (E): Trippy as blazes.
  
• Star Soldier: Vanishing Earth (E): I'm a shmup fan, so I rather liked this game. It's a bit cookie-cutter, but it's good fun.
  
• Star Wars: Shadows Of The Empire: Love it. Was actually the first N64 game I owned.
  
• Super Mario 64: I can't believe you haven't played this one! It was the very first title made for the system, and it actually set the bar high in a number of areas, including play control and music integration.
  
• Tetrisphere (E): One of the most unique Tetris variants out there. You basically play Tetris in 3D in a sphere, and the object is to clear enough of the sphere away to release a trapped... thing ... in the middle. Love it.
  
• Tony Hawk's Pro Skater: The beginning of a legend. It introduced me to skateboarding trick names.
  
• Turok: Dinosaur Hunter: My brother owned this and its immediate sequel. Kinda scuffed.
  
• Turok 2: Seeds of Evil: Probably my favourite in the series.
  
• Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion (E): The storyline wasn't as good, and I didn't see too much improvement in the graphics.
  
• Turok: Rage Wars (E): not my favourite game, either.
  
• Virtual Pool 64 (E): decent if you like pool.
  
• War Gods (E): Sucks.
  
• WCW Backstage Assault: VERY scuffed. Brother owned this one.
  
• WCW Mayhem: Not terrible. Had a good character creation system. I owned this one.
  
• WCW/nWo Revenge: The best of the WCW wrestling games for N64, with an intuitive and accurate combat system.
  
• WinBack: I didn't like this one - I actually found it quite frustrating.
  
• Wipeout 64 (E): Again, I suck at racing games. Tried this one because it had EDM artist Fluke in the soundtrack. It's a combat racing game, so you can blow your opponents up.
  
• The World Is Not Enough 007: Not quite as iconic as Goldeneye, probably because overall, it's more gadgets-driven than the same. Has a really good multiplayer. A pain in the butt to emulate. Brother owned it, I think.
  
• WWF Wrestlemania 2000: I'd go so far as to call this game (which I owned) the best wrestling game for the N64. It's from the same company that made WCW/nWo Revenge (which btw forced WCW to go to EA to make their games), and took all the stuff that make that game great and added character creation, a crapton of new moves, and a career mode with actual storylines.
  
• Yoshi's Story: Holy CRAP was this game annoying! Not only were you not allowed to complete every stage in a level (which drives completionists like me crazy), but the Yoshis' singing is enough to make me want to headdesk with the frequency of a kick drum in a grindcore track! x_X
