10 Most Underrated N64 Games Ever

[@LeProphic]

I replayed Shadow Man on Steam late last year, and it holds up surprisingly well. Prime choice for this list.

[@rxdoom1194]

Shadow Man 2 on the PS2 was pretty awesome too

[@davidbeaulieu4815]

I gave up trying to find all those skull things or whatever they were. Couldn't figure out where to go or how to finish the game. Didn't have internet back then so couldn't look it up either. Hated those days. So much work and effort and never managed to beat it.

[@Hoytful]

They just release a remastered version of shadow man last week on steam. Ive beat it once but love the game so much I bought the remaster and am going to play it again soon.

[@swadlol]

Where’s body harvest? Literally one of the best games on the system and predecessor to GTA3.

[@exaggeratedproblems5483]

Yes

[@torstwald3216]

It was really great but I was too bad to beat it after the Siberia level without relying on cheats. Seems to be completely forgotten though.

[@breakingbenjamin1fan788]

Body harvest is very awesome! Love it!

[@itsv1380]

What if they didn’t add it because they could only play it while their older brothers were home cause when they were lil they were scared. Could you imagine? That wasn’t me though, but could y’all imagine?

[@califaern3sto]

I remember a mission on gta san andreas named body harvest

[@Thatguy55595]

“This game was made by EA before they were crap.” Hahahahaha 🤣🤣

[@CrazeeAdam]

They used to put put bangers. The Lord of the Rings action hack and slash games, racing games etc

[@Thatguy55595]

Adam Block yea my personal favorite is Agent Under Fire lol

[@xanderlowe1543]

"Jet Force Gemini" freaked me out when I was a kid. I remember playing a level on a tightly confined space station where some sort of cockroach/tarantula/spider/xenomorph creatures started swarming me. I cried. Also, I remember Lupus, the dog, got swallowed by a giant monster and came out "the other end." Damn, that game was amazing.

[@danielbuhr4260]

Great game

[@mookapar1]

If done right, could have an incredible reboot. No other game comes close to its unique universe. Maybe an exaggeration, but still....

[@VerdeMorte]

Plus that trailer music...

[@Xavier7392]

The game Battletanx's Multiplayer was among the most fun I remember having on the N64 that didn't come from a big time name.

[@MrBlack-wt5er]

Same with monster-jam, Glenn n64 plant or whatever his name is underrates it but it was fun playing (king of the hill) mode with friends trying to keep you truck on the hill longer than anyone else...

[@ericsaunders2485]

That too

[@eriklkire]

For me it was always Perfect Dark. When my friends wanted to play Goldeneye by default, I showed them Perfect Dark instead. They would always have fun until I stuck them with a timed mine then threw a couple poisoned knives into their corpse so they respawn poisoned. I always considered its variety superior to Goldeneye. So many hours...

[@doqas]

It was Goldeneye dialled up to 11

[@TROOPERfarcry]

This game came out AFTER the playstation .... and it never got the respect, love, and adoration that it deserved.

[@Howitchewstofeel5gum]

Me too , Perfect Dark was infinitely better

I also really liked Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness. Its not one of the best Castlevania games overall but for the second attempt at a 3D entry in the series it wasn't bad!

[@PChamileon97]

i’ll defend the CV64 games till the day i die sure the camera has it’s moments, and properly positioning yourself properly(The “ladders” in the Forest and Tunnel levels) but the designs of characters and levels were amazing, and a memorable soundtrack PLUS!!! Dracula actively MOURNS his old rival by playing his theme on violin

[@sabyhernandezjr7048]

Yes

[@ChrisMustard]

Mission Impossible was an awkward beaut of a game. Gadgets, face swaps, iconic laser chamber dodge, turret boats, stealth and the list goes on. Thumbs up!,

[@JoshuaGoudreau]

I was surprised how much I liked Mission Impossible when I played it

[@SNNetwork]

i had SO much fun at the mansion level. undercover jack the firefighter outfit starta fake fire. that game was the best.

[@apcsox]

Loved the game. I sucked at it (thank god for Gameshark)

[@SNNetwork]

apcsox dam i had a gameshark 64 too. u ever get to that island on Dam in goldeneye.. remember u had to print off the gameshaek codes off gamfaqs. heh good times brother

[@ChrisMustard]

My brothers and I got a 64 for Xmas the year it came out, each allowed 2 games each. Mine Mission Impossible and Goldeneye, my brothers chose Buck Bumble and Turok, then the other got Wave Race and Banjo Kazooie. I think I chose wisely BUT I DO wish I got Ocarina of Time. I never got to play it until 2 years ago when I found the 64 and bought Zelda 2nd hand, loved loved love it!! Mission Impossible and Turok/Turok Seeds of Evil were a joy to play too. May repurchase Turoks on Switch depending on whether these Metroid Prime Trilogy rumours for Switch are true.

[@andrewbowden5692]

I always get upset that Operation Winback never makes these lists! It was the real original over shooter.

[@digidv85]

@Andrew Bowden I’m pretty sure that was featured on a list dealing with games that had features ahead of their time, as in the laser sight and cover mechanics.

[@xxbad_acidxx0079]

Right!!!!! Dude that game is such an underrated gem.

[@jarradlavoie]

Agreed bro. I always watch these type of lists to see if they mention winback and they never do 😒 I played that game over and over when I was a kid. That and goldeneye were my favorite games for N64

[@m0n0ct0]

Best n64 3rd person shooter imo. I was really addicted to it at the time

[@the757general2]

[@rogerfurlong1535]

Ogre Battle 64: Person Of Lordly Caliber One of my favourite games of all time.

[@wol3059]

This. That game was simple on the surface, but if you delve into there's so much depth and complexity to it. The other games in the series could never come close to the level of greatness this game had

[@RyleeStrange]

even the original ogre battle for snes stands up cos it's so deep and complex.

[@rogerfurlong1535]

@@RyleeStrange That might be the most frustrating game I've ever beat hahaha! I think I also got the worst possible ending where Galf takes over your body and starts a Demon empire in your name. I'd love to see a modern take on the Ogre Battle series, but I wont hold my breath

[@arcaderat1613]

One of my favorites was this ridiculous game called Buck Bumble. Basically, a chemical spill causes a bunch of insects to mutate and you play a bumble bee that uses guns and is trying to take down the evil insects. It's exactly as ridiculous as it sounds.

Snowboard Kids (especially 2) had amazing music really good controls, a variety of challenges and was fun to play. Xena actually had a fighting game on the N64 that was fun but one I rarely see mentioned is Pilotwings 64. Fun maps, Easter eggs a plenty, and lots to do. I love that game.

[@meikahidenori]

Snowboard kids 2 only released in Australia in pal regions so not suprised it didn't get a mention - was really fun to pull tricks off in both versions.. Wish it would come back

[@l3oOkeR]

[@danielnelson4881]

Woa Woa Woa... Ready 2 rumble's sequel was better than the original? WHAT!? I respect your opinion as everyone's opinion is valid unless that opinion is anything positive toward Donald Trump... But I respectfully have to disagree and wonder what in God's green earth would make you say or think that? The original R2R was undeniably better in every possible way! The second one was wonky and didn't play well at all. Maybe I was too young or its been too long, I admit that possibility, I'm fairly confident in my statement though.

[@ryuiichikune6250]

I still have this game on my dresser. I loved this game

[@LunaP1]

Agreed. If Punch Out can get a remake, so can this game.

[@BeardTech]

Operation Winback: tight cover shooting, that shotgun blast, and it invented great stealth mechanics way before MGS did. And I think it's better. Also: the bosses are nutcases in all the right ways! It even had a PS2 version. So, so satisfying

Yes! Operation winback. I thought I was the only one who played it! That game was my jam, man.

@@broyalty86 I had a group of friends in high school who played this together, even the multiplayer was awesome! Cover shooter gameplay with 4 people was pretty rad!!!

[@BeardTech]

@@jtee06 Yeah me too! I absolutely dig the smooth controls, the weapons, the b grade dialogue and the simplicity of it. It's run, hide, shoot, grab keys and blast henchmen but the fact that it does it SO satisfyingly well is just great! I even got the sequel on PS2 as an emulator just to grab that nostalgia. It's there too!!! Grenade lobs for the win!!!

[@JuanCarlos-gz2br]

Agree, but it has been somewhat redeemed since the last decade, at least. It was underrated; but not anymore. I think the video focuses on games that haven't received yet the justice they deserve.

Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire should have been on there somewhere

[@Dumledaj]

Well, the third person parts were terrible; the controls, both shooting and moving were, to put it nicely, clunky and utterly hate inducing. The spacecraft parts were alright, but Rogue Squadron did those parts infinitely better. Dash Rendar was a complete Han Solo rip off. The opening Battle of Hoth is outstanding, really, really outstanding, but the rest is mediocre at best, a brown/gray, dark green blur of nonsense.

Silicon Valley was my favorite N64 game, it had fantastic puzzles and you had to figure out how to use the animals available to you to complete each level. It was both surprisingly difficult and bleak for a game that had Wallace and Gromit style visuals and humor. Oh, and I remember some of the animals had weaponized exploding poo, so that was always fun. The absolute best game my friends never heard of.

[@thebystander1636]

@@rwentfordable nah, it was a pretty good game for it's time.

[@sneakykamon]

Richard Wentford Given the limitations cartridges were known to have on N64 compared to PS1 discs, I’d say it was pretty damn good what the devs were able to pull off for Winback

[@alanbeardsley8346]

Guantlet Legends was so much fun as a multiplayer co-op playthrough. My brothers and I loved powering up our characters to the max and calling out shots and providing backup. And then when we all had our power shots ready at the same time, we would unleash a wave of destruction.

[@PsychoUndSoXD]

Oh wow I did not thought you would use my SHADOMAN footage from my channel :) :D Thank you :) I heard that soon SHAODMAN will come to PS4. Like a remastered version. I cannot wait until it comes out :)

[@tayg6276]

Jet Force Gemini deserves so much more attention and a remaster.

[@LeonConner]

No Mischief Makers? That was the definition of underrated gem.

[@TheBlazicans]

"Shake shake"

[@LeonConner]

@@TheBlazicans this guy gets it lol

[@AngelFlores-bq4fd]

It's so underrated, it didn't even make the underrated list 😅 Its an incredible game developed by treasure which also developed gunstar heroes for the genesis and other greats.

[@Amadeus65]

Really wish they mentioned Mischief Makers. Hands down my favorite n64 game ever! It's so much fun and bizarre now that I think about it.

[@mannyrobles3065]

That game was good, challenging, very responsive controls and a good difficulty curve.

[@LaughingBearGames]

Played Blast Corps as a kid and absolutely LOVED it. So glad it made the list. I am sad you didn't mention Buck Bumble. That was another fun one!

[@lankeysob]

This list is missing Hexen. My friends and I had tons of fun cooping that game.

[@meikahidenori]

And forsaken. That was pretty fun multi player!

[@grockstardust]

ShadowMan is being remade as far as I recall, the OST is on Spotify and Apple Music and is a gem by Tim Haywood, quite scary.

[@dangelodrummond8315]

Omg I'm so glad I watched this video, I've been trying ro figure out what game I used to play on the N64 all the time. It was Jet force Gemini, man it's hard to be happy at times like this but I'm satisfied!

[@jamaicanlyricist1965]

Cruising the World was one of my favorites. It was so much fun back then doing the flips with the cars and accumulating those trick points.

[@alexandriasurrett4665]

Growing up with my two siblings, beetle bug racing was actually a really good game with missle shooting racing etc completely underrated

[@AngelFlores-bq4fd]

It's beetle adventure racing 😅 and yeah it was a great game.

[@jacobwoolf2010]

I had to pause the video on that "Z-Targeted Rocks" line to laugh my ads off. Love you Jules

[@ryuiichikune6250]

Beetle adventure racing was so fun to play. I love it's uniqueness in it's cheat codes with the n64 logo car and taco car

[@timothypitcher7996]

Even to this day, I still remember Space Station Silicon Valley. Definitely among the most amusing N64 titles that I've come across during my childhood.

[@gregoryfischer163]

Shadowman for N64 has been my favorite game for years and I’m so happy that it made it so high on the list!! Obviously I wanted #1 for it but am perfectly fine with 3rd. Any of my friends know that I will go on until the end of time about my love for Shadowman 64. (And even tho all of my friends know about it, most have never played it).

[@tomsoya]

Loved Beetle Adventure Racing. The shortcuts were amazing.

[@danielnelson4881]

Beetle Adventure racing is one of, the best GAMES, not even just racing but games period, that I have ever played. I used to have so much fun playing two player with my friends and my brother. There were so many little hidden things on every track.. Aliens and what have you. Such a fun quirky little game and an absolute masterpiece. Great inclusion to this list, I had almost forgotten about it!

[@amusleh1990]

Beetle Adventure Racing was fun playing with my family, great shortcuts and track design, and multiplayer beetle battle mode

[@oliverlucantonio5568]

Honourable mention should go to Army Men : Sarges Heros. Such a gem.

[@thebystander1636]

I was just thinkin about this game. The whole shtick of having a level out of a single room in a house was awesome.

[@ramansk83]

I SERIOUSLY thought I was one of the very few that loved MACE THE DARK AGE!! Then I remembered why I follow you Jules!! You da man 🙌🏽

[@saiyanroyalty229]

I need somebody to mention Flying Dragon (the SD version)... The Circuit campaign was a story mode tournament where you could constantly upgrade items, earn specials with progressing difficulty. May be the reason I love fighting games today

[@heavybass40]

JFG has incredible replay value with a ton of collectibles and secrets. Great game.

[@johnk6123]

Loved Jet Force Gemini. Used to play Versus with my siblings back in the day. Great video guys, thanks again ;D

[@colinconsidine5209]

Anyone else love Goemans Great Adventure? That’s one of my all time favorites!

[@cruzhoutx713]

The best game from N64 my opinion

[@wkk222]

Beetle adventure racing was epic..me and my sister would play it after school for hours.

[@romulanspy4972]

Shadow Man 64 is my all time favorite game. Nice to see it getting some love! 😍♥️

[@IkesDaddelbox]

One thing that makes Shadow Man what it is, is the fact that the bosses are inspired by real world serial killers.

[@bee2377]

Cudos for mentioning Blast Corps.! I loved the hell out of that game when it came out!

[@huiostheou]

I'm kind of surprised Mischief Makers wasn't on this list. I kept waiting for it because it seemed so obvious.

[@strawhat9023]

Rocket Robot on Wheels was a color puzzle based game where you platformed across space and had to jump in paint to unlock things in the levels. You could build a beach theme park as a mini game. Was the only N64 game that i could not reach the boss more than 3 times, after many, many attempts! They want you jump across an rising rock platforms on a lake of lava. The save point was before the rocks and when you died you spawned there.
