I agree, it might not have aged in stellar fashion, but in 1999 it was a very good adventure. I also agree, that in a sea of mediocre 3rd party efforts Castlevania 64 was a legitimate AAA game from Konami on the system, and as such I was thankful. To be fair for Goemon Mystical Ninja was also a pretty darn good game from Konami for the system.

Goemon was a legit good title that I wish were available today. I liked it better than any other N64 title that wasn't made by Nintendo of Japan, and yes, that includes Rare's games.

Perhaps in a future iteration of this voting poll threads, I will feature Goemon...it was actually in the list of games I was thinking in using for this edition. Heck of a game, with beautiful visuals, and fun gameplay mechanics. It was also very distinct from pretty much any other game around that period of time. It is usually one of the forgotten games when talking about great N64 games and should definitely be included in the conversation.
