I'm getting ready to put together a contest for the site, but in preparation, I would like everybody to list games that they think are excellent, but haven't received the recognition they deserve (chose 1 to 10 games that haven't been listed yet).

Here's the list so far:
Rush 2
Blast Corps
Beetle Adventure Racing
Ogre Battle 64
Rocket: Robot on Wheels
Sin & Punishment
Mischeif Makers
Hybrid Heaven
Re-Volt
Bangai O
Space Station Silicon Valley

I don't think that there really is much any hidden gems in the n64 department, as their games were advertised very well. And games we're made so that everyone could get them. The only hidden gems I believe would have to be imports.

yet again, IMO

There's several hidden gems on the N64...

Racket, is this one excluded cause it already had won?

Space Station Silicon Valley

And wasn't the winning game supposed to get a review on the main page??

Conker's Bad Fur Day

If I recall correctly, it was released near the end of the N64's prime, and was overlooked by many imo. Also, due to the Mature rating, I do not think it got much exposure. It is a truly great game.

Wetrix was another one. It was an excellent 3d puzzle game that was both challenging and fun. It is a must play.

Banjo Kazooie... very fun mario 64-like game with a ton of great levels and some good music

Actually, the game had a lot of word-of-mouth and did get a lot of attention -- also received a remake on the XBox

Great game -- but I think that one was pretty popular as well

Hey -- it's my site -- I can do whatever I want

Anyway, I'm too lazy to put all of the proper user quotes in one post.
