It has come to my attention that the Nintendo 64 doesn't get enough love around here, so I have taken it upon myself to rectify this grave injustice by creating a Top 11 list of the greatest N64 games of all time Which is usually subjective, but will be treated objectivity for some reason. Why Top 11? Because I like to go one step beyond. *writes royalty check to Doug Walker* So, without further ado, let's get started: *starts up torture machine* Wait, no. Wrong game. Wrong platform.
The List
(SPOILER)
1.) BattleTanx Global Assault
2.) WWF No Mercy
3.) Super Smash Bros
4.) Pokemon Snap
5.) WCW vs. nWo World Tour
6.) Diddy Kong Racing
7.) The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
8.) Mario Kart 64
9.) Super Mario 64
10.) Banjo-Kazooie
11.) Yoshi's Story
11.)
I admit, when my mother first brought this home I scoffed, but the moment I popped it into my N64 (warning: do not pop your games into the console) and started playing I was instantly hooked. You play as several different Yoshi babies color coded. You have your traditional green Yoshi, yellow Yoshi, light blue Yoshi, dark blue Yoshi, red Yoshi, pink Yoshi, I think there may have been an orange Yoshi thrown somewhere in there, and the stages played like a storybook. It's not the hardest game you'll ever play, but it was still fairly challenging and a lot of fun. This was the game that sold me on the Yoshi character for years to come.
"Yoshi!" *jumps*
