I am really, really not enjoying these N64 tracks as much as the NES and GB ones... Not just the ambient first four tracks, either, but even the Kirby music. The Shadow Man track was... something, though. Not sure I enjoyed it, but it sure was something. Even the Goldeneye track isn't as toe-tap-enducing as I remembered. Only the Super Mario 64 track holds up, IMO. And even so, I'd take the soundtrack of any previous Mario game over it any day. Sorry, don't mean to be a hater, the N64 just sucks. |

@GuillaumeTrue that. On topic: I think the N64's best soundtrack's came from techno beats. That was definitely the N64's niche. Although RARE was able to get some cool sounding stuff out of the machine, too. WIPEOUT 64 - Propellorheads BANG ON RUSH 2: RUSH AMERICA - Low Rydin' BEETLE ADVENTURE RACING - Conventry Cove GOLDENEYE - Silo BANJO-KAZOOIE - Treasure Trove Cove |

@GameDadGrantI think the N64 gets more appreciation than it deserves sometimes. Its old enough to be nostalgic, but new enough to be fresh in people's minds. I think the Gamecube will have a similar treatment in a few years. Last generation, I distinctly remember a huge wave of SNES love. So much love it bordered on lust, and became an SNES gangbang. Or something. |

Yeah, StarFox 64 had a janky soundtrack. Some of the songs were pretty good (like Zoness and Star Fox) but the sound samples were so "my first Casio" that I couldn't enjoy it much. Especially compared to the awesome music of the first game! Check out the heroic space odyssey feel of the first game's main theme then listen to the comparatively unexciting and vaguely repetitive StarFox 64 theme that's stuck ever since for some bizarre reason. Even the sound samples are better on the SNES! The N64's best music was in Banjo-Kazooie. That game made my ears so happy... :) |

@GameDadGrantOh yeah, WipeOut 64 had a pretty cool soundtrack. I rented it one time. Beetle Adventure Racing was fun. I think the game may have influenced my decision to buy a new New Beetle back in 2002 (which I have sold since then)! Yeah, the songs you list definitely have the techno sound going for them. I did like many of the Banjo-Kazooie, Tooie, and DK64 songs as well. Rare's glorious Mario 64 clones! @rebonack Lol, never looked at his face like that until now! |
