Underrated Nintendo 64 Games?

I haven't played many N64 games since I don't have an N64, but um... Pokemon Stadium maybe? Also if it is considered under rated, Majora's Mask. I never got to play the whole thing but what little of it I did play felt like basicly Ocarina of Time only with transformation masks and a time limit. And OOT is awesome k.

Compared to OoT, Majora's Mask was certainly underrated--a lot of people have Hatorade for it--but on the grand scheme of things it made a pretty large impact. That's sorta like saying StarFox Adventures is underrated because Starfox Assault was released on the GameCube also, only in reverse. (And Adventures legitimately sucks.)

I almost wanted to say Chameleon Twist was underrated, but I found and bought a copy not too long ago--in playing it, I realized that it's really just a kid's game and all the neat gameplay aspects I remember were...not so neat anymore. (Then again, anyone can be spoiled rotten after playing games such as Prince of Persia or Mario Sunshine, where the level of control you have over a character is just awesome.) CT doesn't actually do anything to stand apart from your generic platformer aimed at kids aside from have characters with really long tongues.

In some ways, F-Zero X was underrated; the F-Zero series didn't really catch on with the majority of gamers until Smash Bros. came out and were made aware through Captain Falcon. But like Majora's Mask, it did make an impact, so it's not as under the scope as games like Mischief Makers were.

Funny thing was, I played F-Zero on the SNES long before Smash Bros. Then when I saw Captain Falcon in SSB, I was like "who the hell is that? :o" Of course I hadn't yet played F-Zero X at that point.

And you were forever regarded as a horrible person after the fact; how could you not remember the art =p

I remember Captain Falcon from the comic that came with Fzero.

I think it also says his name and gives a photo of him in the game.

Well I never owned the game, only borrowed it, so there. Am I still horrible?

Mischief Makers.
Quest 64.
Bomberman Hero.

Ohhhh I still have that XD

and I'd say both Mystical Ninja: Starring Goemon and Goemons Great Adventure

<_< Shame I have no friends to play GGA with *SHOT*

And I thought I was the only one who played Blast Corps.

but when I played it, I had no idea what the hell it was about. I want to play it again ;_;

Oh yeah. BattleTanx

Yes. Yes. YES.



and Donkey Kong 64. So many people hate this game...but I loved it. There was just so much to do, and considering my parents weren't the types to buy me games every month, this game kept me busy forever.

For what Beetle Adventure Racing was, a giant Volkswagon Ad, it was amazing. The tracks were well designed, the graphics were nice for it's time, and little touches of detail were thrown in everywhere (Such as, ramming into a phone booth and getting a call cannot be completeted voice, or hearing villagers yell for help if you smash thier houses on Inferno Isle).

Hot Wheels Turbo Racing was also well made, and pretty fun. It could have used a four-player mode, but then again, it was also a PS1 racer.

Turok Rage Wars. I know it's not completely underrated, but more underrated than the single player games, regardless of the fact I think it's generally better.

Great game, but I hate those missions where you use the sliding motion with that one truck in order to hit buildings with your trunk. Stopped playing after those became common. ='(
