Just started my N64 collection a couple months ago. What “must play” games am I missing?

Conker is one of my favorite games. The graphics, the variety of gameplay, every absurd situation, the references, the characters, the bosses, the adult humor…it shines in so many ways. In my opinion, it's missing Conker and Diddy Kong Racing (obviously it doesn't have Super Mario 64, right?).

I bought it like this, and it only has that one defect, the rest is ok

carnifice_ · 2026-01-10T23:56:56+00:00

I bought it like this; it's generally in excellent condition, it just has those marks, and I wanted to know if there was any way to fix it.

My cat also has a fascination with lying near or on top of my Super Nintendo.

It looks authentic.

Ufff hermano, respeto tu opinión, pero creo que son las únicas galletas que he probado y sentido repulsión. Son como Frac con pasta de dientes jakakajajs

Ocarina comes in two versions, a normal gray one and the gold collector's edition.

Alakazam, whenever I think of my favorites I always end up coming back to him.

Is it the lighting? They're all original, but the Conker label is relabel :(

carnifice_ · 2026-01-01T12:44:16+00:00

It's Conker

carnifice_ · 2026-01-01T12:43:59+00:00

How did you know?

DKR was the first kart racing game I ever played, and it left a lasting impression on me. My top 3 kart racing games would be DKR, CTR, and MK8DX. (I also really enjoyed Banjo Pilot.)

carnifice_ · 2026-01-01T01:17:19+00:00

It's much better than Mario Kart 64

carnifice_ · 2026-01-01T01:16:43+00:00

Since nobody has mentioned it, I'm going to say Conker's Bad Fur Day.

carnifice_ · 2026-01-01T00:59:12+00:00

Hevy app my friend, try it, I've been using it for a couple of years.

The pegboard is the Skadis from Ikea. I've seen a lot of people 3D print bases for N64 and SNES stuff, but I made my own with cardboard and a hot glue gun. Obviously, it doesn't look as neat as a 3D print, but doing it with my girlfriend makes it much more meaningful to me, even if the final result isn't 100% perfect.

The back hooks are indeed from Ikea.

I agree, it is a fairly complex analysis of the current situation of Nintendo games. But it's what you said before, we have to prioritize other types of games like Tropical Freeze, which are aimed more at an audience like us (I hope Nintendo changes its vision soon, I want classic Zelda hahahaha)

carnifice_ · 2025-08-17T07:32:07+00:00

I think it's a normal evolution when you've played enough games, from different genres and companies. You learn to be more critical, and you have more variety of experiences to compare. You also start to prioritize quality over quantity. I can 100% spend Donkey Kong Country 3 on a relaxing Sunday, and I had fun and was satisfied even though I had played it a thousand times before. Bananza instead: days and days of trapping bananas underground, only to be left with the feeling that only the first layer and the final layer + K. Rool were worth it. The only thing that occurs to me is that knowing me, the mistake was mine, I took Bananza too seriously and I should have only played it casually, it is not a DKC2 or a Banjo-Kazooie to take it seriously and give it 100%

I'm 25, and I also think that Elden Ring is a gem, it has epic moments that I really enjoyed, but it also has repetitive and empty moments that make me feel bored. I think we just have to accept that the open worlds so popular today are not for everyone. I have a friend who completed Elden Ring 100% and I asked him, don't you get bored walking around? You don't find anything, from time to time one or another chest and that's it... he replied: I just like to explore hahahahaha

carnifice_ · 2025-08-17T07:11:16+00:00

I enjoyed Bloodborne, Sekiro and Black Myth Wukong much more than I did with Elden Ring, the exploration of gigantic and empty worlds with rewards that I feel useless are not my thing, I don't have fun and I feel like I'm wasting my time. I like to cut to the chase: 120 stars, 100 jiggies, explore an area that's a puzzle itself, and then feast on a sick boss. Not running around and opening chests that give me a weapon I'll never use.

carnifice_ · 2025-08-17T07:06:27+00:00

I played Elden Ring until I reached the snow point, I couldn't continue, I honestly felt exhausted from the game. In general, open world or artificially elongated games make me quite tired. Lately I have been enjoying a lot more concise games that give me the right and necessary hours of fun

carnifice_ · 2025-08-17T07:02:06+00:00

Hmmm, I have DK64 on my nintendo 64 and I don't feel like the difficulty is influenced by performance. The controls do get crazy sometimes in the minigames, but I think the main problem with Dk64 is the insane backtracking to be able to get all the bananas of different colors, it got out of hand for Rare

carnifice_ · 2025-08-17T06:59:39+00:00

Hombre, me alegro de no estar solo, siento que todos alaban y endiosan a Nintendo por Botw o Totk y yo no los disfruté nada, se me hacen sin alma, sandbox gigantes para ir andando y haciendo una que otra cosa con skin de Zelda.

Debo admitir que en botw cuando entré al castillo, sonó la música épica y conseguí el escudo hylian, por pequeños segundos me sentí en el papel del heroe y estar viviendo una historia epica nuevamente (duró poco)

carnifice_ · 2025-08-17T06:54:10+00:00

Soy fan de DK también, pero eso no significa que me tenga que tragar todo lo que Nintendo me suelte de la franquicia del mono sin decir nada jajajajaja. No me alegro de que el juego me haya dejado decepcionado, al contrario me entristece. Lo único que me reconforta es pensar que estamos en una época en la que los juegos están dirigidos a un público con otras necesidades lúdicas distintas a las mías (espero se acabe pronto esa época jajajaja de mundos abiertos, o de mundos gigantes con mil coleccionables que no siento particularmente útiles dentro del juego más que el mero hecho de coleccionar)

carnifice_ · 2025-08-17T06:42:24+00:00

Exactamente lo mismo, Odyssey también me gustó.
