How original.

Good enough list I guess, though I really have to question how Other M made it in.

SM64 is so average. Played it first in 2010. Nostalgia I guess?

no offense but you're not really qualified to debate an 'all time' greatest list if you have played that few games, or only just now played some games as ancient as that. if you played SM64 for the first time just a few years ago then who knows how many other classics you haven't played whatsoever...  at any rate your the same poster who claims that Ocarina of Time is not very good, I think its just you lack a grasp for what was relevant or already existed WHEN these games come out

 

sure if you compared Super Mario 64 and Mario Galaxy TODAY, like play them side by side, one will feel dated or not as high quality. but that's because you're not considering the relevant information from the time of when it came out and what had existed prior. even so games like Ocarina of Time, Super Mario World, original Metroid, etc. all have aged extremely well for anyone who enjoys platformers or just more back to the basics adventure games

I'm comparing games how they match up today. I've played most games in the top 100. ;)

I constantly hear OoT is STILL the best game today,that's what pisses me off. This isn't about the best N64 games, so your arguments don't hold up. It's about best games of all time, so I'm going to rate old games by today's standards.

I actually like OoT 3D (8.5/10). It's just immensely overrated.

Original Metroid? Hahaha, that game is barely playable anymore, it sucks! If you think that aged well you really have some nostalgia goggles on (no offence meant)

If only Metroid II got a remake à la Zero Mission. ;(
