First, acknowledgement to solskjaer_24 for inspiring this topic with a post in 'i don't understand this'. Thanks.

Between now and the gamecube's european release, if nintendo were to issue re-releases, in 'player's choice' style, of great n64 games, what would you chose to include in the line up?
(Not suggesting it will (or won't) happen, just for the best n64 games out there)

My 'player's choice' line-up:

Mario 64
Perfect Dark
Donkey Kong 64
Zelda OoT
Super Smash Bros
Mario Golf

Thanks Dr. Duck!
Dr. Duck: "Hi everybody!!"
Everybody: "Hi Dr. Duck!!"

Some of the mentioned games are still available, but if they'd all been stopped and removed from shelves i'd have to say:

-Zelda 1+2
-Mario 64
-Mario Kart 64
-Perfect Dark
-Goldeneye
-Conker's BFD
-The WHOLE ISS series (because of the hillarious commentary on ISS 64!!)
-1080 Snowboarding
-South Park Rally (possibly??)
-Donkey Kong 64
and a couple more that I can't think f right now.

Oh, and the harvester bosses - agh. Not enough opportunity to practice with the damned special vehicle, ended up skidding waywardly around the place like a novice ice skater feeling the need for speed. While fighting a giant insect.

Yeah, i liked body harvest.
The puzzles were good, if not zelda-like, but i got to the 50s or 60s america level, and it all got a bit too hard. I kind of went off it then, probably got something more appealing than battling with the awkward controls, but i expect i'll go back to it one of these days.

Now I think about it it wasn't that bad. And a Nintendo system game with some gore! Funniest bit was probably the early level with the Fires to put out and the villagers running around being eaten by Insects :)

Massive Motion Sickness from this game though. Probably due to the graphics...

Body Harvest wasn't that bad, the graphics where rank, the controls where preety slow and unresponsive but there was some fun to be had, the planes where damn good fun. I can remember crashing on a slope near some lava getting out the plane then it started slipping down the side, so I jumped back in movie style and pulled the plane back into the air just before it hit the lava, classic gaming.

That's a game that need an update me thinks, with nice nice graphics and a better control system the game could be a classic.
