Mischief Makers

Rayman 2 - I have it for dreamcast

Shadows of the Empire

Bomberman Hero - during the collectathon days of the N64, this was a 3D platformer that broke the mold and was more like the 16 bit days

Chopper Attack - it was fun back in the day, don't know if it holds up

Ok, I've got a couple of suggestions:

Killer Instinct Gold - The only fighting game I'd declare a must own for the console, though if you're a bit fan of Midway's MK series, Mortal Kombat Trilogy and Mortal Kombat 4 are both potentially worth looking into. And if you're a big fighter fan, AppleQueso's suggestion of Flying Dragon is a great idea.

Also, I'm a little surprised to see it missing from the list, but Super Smash Bros. is a great first party game.

Turok: Dinosaur Hunter and Turok 2: Seeds of Evil - While most people will willingly declare GoldenEye 007 and its spiritual successor Perfect Dark the two best FPS for the console, the first Turok is an awesome game which predated GoldenEye's release by a matter of months. Turok 2 is one of the best FPS on the console, and the multiplayer experience is excellent. You can look into the rest of the series if you like, but they never reach that level of quality again.

I enjoyed the Kirby 64 game. It's fun. If you like Kirby games, I'd recommend it.

back on the games themselves, I always bought them new back in the day, but the last batch of N64 games I've bought have been used cartridges only, and some are filthy, covered in stickers, grimy or otherwise unclean. What's the best way to clean them and remove stickers and sticker residue? I have the necessary screwbits to remove the PCB if dunking it in liquids is recommended. I just obviously don't want to ruin the labels.
