Metroid Prime 1-3 -> Metroid Other M
Banjo Kazooie/Tooie -> Nuts and Bolts
Pokemon D/P -> B/W (maybe just me)
Mario Kart DS -> Mario Kart 7
Paper Mario 1-2 -> Sticker Star
Starcraft -> Starcraft 2

Metroid: Other M has barely any music, so the choice to go for something entirely different is the main culprit.
Nuts & Bolts... can't say it had a memorable soundtrack, but I don't remember being underwhelmed either.
Pokémon, I don't know. Didn't play those games.
Mario Kart is probably just you overemphasizing Rainbow Road... again. No issues for me at all.
Sticker Star had quite a few good tunes.
Starcraft, I don't know.

Going from the Corneria theme in Star Fox to the same theme in Star Fox 64... so bad. The same goes for the rest of the soundtrack. Aside from the beginning of Area 6 and maybe the Star Wolf theme, there really aren't any bright spots in the SF64 soundtrack. It's a drop from kickass video game music to elevator tunes. Games like Mario Kart 7 and Sticker Star still had remixes, but SF64 only had a newly composed mess.

Opposite for me. I have an intense hatred for remixes.  I'd rather it was a failed new composition than that. 

Starcraft was memorable -> ambient in the fine tradition of recent Western PC games.

I d agree with you on SF -> SF64, but I still liked some tracks from 64 (Starwolf). I like very little of anything Nintendo's done in the last five years except Xenoblade. Then again, everyone and their dog disagrees with me that Galaxy 2 < Galaxy soundtrack wise.
