It’s cliche, but Golden Eye came out on the N64 so I gotta say it’s good

There are some hidden gems like Mischief Makers, but most of what carried it was the first party titles

N64 may be an early 3D console with some problems but it's not as bad as some people like to make it out to be. I still really enjoy Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Ocarina of Time, Super Smash Bros, Goldeneye, Paper Mario, Mario Party 2 and 3, Banjo Kazooie, Perfect Dark, Wave Race, Jet Force Gemini, Snowboard Kids, Star Fox, Mischief Makers, Ogre Battle, Diddy Kong Racing, Conker’s Bad Fur Day, Banjo Tooie, Body Harvest, Cruis’n games, Extreme-G, Gauntlet Legends, Pokemon Snap, Pokemon Stadium, Kirby 64, Pokemon Puzzle League, Space Station Silicon Valley, San Francisco Rush, Turok games, WCW/NWO Revenge on the N64.

My only major gripe is the controller which was apparently made for people with 3 hands

Not the best of its era, but within it's library is some of the best games ever made

It has good games but also a small library where the bad outnumbered the good, but the good was so GOOD that it kinda evened out.
