Remember nintendo's arrogance during nintendo 64's release?

Frankly, I think that's because most N64 players aren't very well informed of what's available for the system. Personally, my two favorite N64 games, Goemon's Great Adventure and Wonder Project J2, are both third-party, and I can name plenty of other good third-party games. Heck, here's some just off the top of my head:

Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon
Mischief Makers
Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness
Wetrix
Beetle Adventure Racing
All of the Bomberman games
Harvest Moon 64
Ogre Battle 64
Both Snowboard Kids
Hybrid Heaven
Rayman 2
Space Station Silicon Valley
Rocket: Robot on Wheels
WipeOut 64

Good list! Legacy of Darkness was actually good? I played the first outing, but could never get that into it, so I passed on Darkness.

Bold call on ALL of the Bomberman games. I absolutely love the first U.S. release and its under-appreciated multiplayer, but know many people loathe it with a passion. And yes, I am being serious about the multiplayer!

I would also add the THQ/AKI/Jakks wrestling games as some of the best-of-the-best. Few games capture the true feeling of their source quite like these games and I have yet to play a better wrestling game for any system. Though must say I'm not sure what the big deal is over Virtual Pro Wrestling 2. Good game? Yes. Worth importing? Only if you can't find WWF No Mercy.
