Thanks to the User Ratings submitted by readers, we present to you the top 50 N64 games ever.

It was while brandishing this console's three-pronged pad that many of us took our first steps into a three-dimensional Mushroom Kingdom or Hyrule, and the unrivalled excitement of 4-player split-screen Mario Kart or GoldenEye sticks in our mind like few other multiplayer experiences. On the other hand, for many gamers the N64 evokes some of our very warmest, strongest gaming memories. In the meantime, Nintendo doubled down on an esoteric piece of hardware with confusing, kiddy-coloured controllers that were arguably out of step with gaming's maturing audience. Tired of the platform holder's licencing terms, many developers jumped ship to Sony's PlayStation, attracted by fairer deals and cheaper disc-based media. Launching back in 1996 (or 1997 in PAL regions) as the gaming industry's bread-and-butter switched from sprites to polygons, the console represents - from a certain perspective - the first time Nintendo really dropped the ball. The Nintendo 64 is a console which tends to divide gamers.
