It is not uncommon for various gaming media outlets to release some lists that reveal their most favorite or least favorite gaming-related things. However, every once in a while, there is a list that appears that relates to the world of Nintendo.
This is no exception. IGN released a list of their top 25 best Nintendo 64 games of all-time. The list includes a lot of racing games, and even a few titles that may not sound familiar to you. But, unsurprisingly, Ocarina of Time, Super Mario 64 and Majora’s Mask are in the top 3. The full list can be seen down below.
- 25. Banjo-Tooie
- 24. Pokemon Stadium 2
- 23. Blast Corps
- 22. Space Station Silicon Valley
- 21. Beetle Adventure Racing
- 20. 1080° Snowboarding
- 19. WWF No Mercy
- 18. Mario Kart 64
- 17. Diddy Kong Racing
- 16. F-Zero X
- 15. GoldenEye 007
- 14. Mario Party 3
- 13. Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber
- 12. Mario Golf
- 11. Pokemon Puzzle League
- 10. Star Wars: Rogue Squadron
- 09. Wave Race 64
- 08. Super Smash Bros.
- 07. Paper Mario
- 06. Star Fox 64
- 05. Perfect Dark
- 04. Banjo-Kazooie
- 03. The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask
- 02. Super Mario 64
- 01. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Surprised Mario Kart is behind Diddy Kong Racing
I’m not. I like MK64, but I’ve always preferred DKR
Well, glad to see F-Zero X here, and happy to see Majora’s Mask and Banjo-Kazooie so high up.
Pd being above golden eye is a good thing, but not having excite bike 64 in this list is idiotic
Goldeneye can’t be 15, it changed the perspective on console shooters forever. Top 5 easy…
Perfect dark and goldeneye should be swapped.
This list sucks. Lets be honest pokemon stadium 1 was better than the sequel. Definitely less bugs and glitch and or lag.
Eternal Darkness???
That was a Gamecunbe game.
WWF No Mercy at # 19, i’d rather play anything then WWE 2k games so i’ll settle for # 19.
Goemons great adventure deserves a spot here
I am presently creating an additional $33,000 or many months from home doing terribly honest and straightforward activities on-line from home. I actually have no inheritance last month specifically $20845 from this domestic activity.~Le590~ presently interact during this activity and build more cash online from the address

And even this won’t convince Rare or Microsoft to make Banjo-Threeie even the outburst of the unveiling of the near and bird on Smash bros didn’t get them to work immediately on the 3rd franchise. Kinda stupid to be a billion dollar company and don’t want to make additional money when there is plenty of evidence it will.
Nobody is ever fully satisfied in lists like this, even when the list has it right. I’ve already seen a complaint in the comments about DKR being listed above Mario Kart 64 (which is how it should be, as DKR is a superior game). So I don’t know why companies & websites even bother making these lists. You’ll always have people moaning when they see things they disagree with, but never saying “they got this right”.
As a whole, this is a solid list.
Not having Ogre Battle 64 in the top 5 makes this list invalid.
Banjo Tooie is ridiculously underrated.
