Most underrate N64 exclusives?
.png){kind=logo}
This game stole many hours of my time back in the day. Especially when playing the stunt track to collect Mountain Dew cans. I never see this game mentioned often and feel it needs more attention since this is a nice exclusive. Any other for the N64 that do not get the attention they deserve?

Body Harvest! Despite all of its flaws, this one blew my mind when it came out. The "open world" concept is old news these days, but back then it was one of the first, at least to me.
I agree 100%. The thought of being able to travel all over a large map, plus being able to drive a vast array/arsenal of vehicles in different time zones and worlds made it even better. I remember having the players guide before actually having the game. I never made it past the USA level. It was incredibly difficult to beat those bugs.

Man, I totally forgot about this game! My good buddy and I used to play this all the time, lol.
Definitely a personal top N64 title.
Also love Rush 2, I remember taking a picture of my bros TV when I did a roll flip on the stunt track for something like 78 points across almost the entire map (no cheats like less gravity, etc). The 4x4 pickup truck is the best for rolls in that game.
I also have an unnatural love for Blast Corps, Castlevania 64, Gauntlet Legends, Shadows of the Empire and Turok 1 and 2.
I'd also say that Gauntlet Legends with some friends is a real fun experience too. Edit*-oops not exclusive but still fun!
California Speed is a pretty decent racer that doesn't get mentioned much.
Aidyn Chronicles is alright too.
I know it's on tons of consoles but Monopoly is a lot of fun on N64.
Road Rash 64 is a lot of fun.
Donald Duck Goin' Quackers is a fun platformer.
Blues Brothers 2000 deserves more love.
Space Station Silicon Valley is a fun challenge.
I'd also say that Gauntlet Legends with some friends is a real fun experience too.
Gauntlet Legends is awesome, but 'tis no exclusive -- it's on the PlayStation and Dreamcast too. That said, the N64 version is the best.
Pilotwings 64 often gets called a "glorified tech demo" and things like that, but I found it totally addictive & a worthy sequel to the SNES original.
Chopper Attack isn't great, and some things about it are pretty goofy, but all things considered it plays pretty well and I enjoyed it for what it was.
I'm intrigued by Battlezone: Rise of the Black Dogs and Shadowgate 64. I need to play both of those some more.
Buck Bumble and Knife Edge are pretty solid from what I remember. Knife Edge is a very bare-bones rail shooter, but it's mindless fun.
I love seeing threads like this. In other areas of the forums Lately The N64 seems to have picked up a ton of hate on the forums since Indy, Homebrew became so popular and retro is so trendy now.
