I think playing Super Mario 64 for the first time was the most mind blowing experience I will ever have in gaming. Think it was 1997 so I was 9 at the time. Controlling a character in 3D in these massive levels using a joystick was well beyond anything I'd ever come across at that point.
I wasted countless hours on Goldeneye in both single and multiplayer. Never did manage to unlock all the cheats - I can still recall the devastation at completing Facility on 00 Agent in under 2:05, with Trevelyan dying a second before the end, thus failing the mission.
Ocarina of Time, well, what can you say? That was something truly special at release, and it's still every bit as good to me these days.
Banjo-Kazooie was also an absolute delight. I'm probably due another play through of this at some point.
Shout out to Space Station Silicon Valley and Beetle Adventure Racing as two sometimes overlooked gems (although @Veknoid_Outcast gave the latter a mention in their article).
