What Nintendo 64 games do you want available on the Switch that aren’t there?

For me, it’s Donkey Kong 64 and Banjo-Tooie. I find those to be fun platforming games despite the flaws they have. I would also say the original Super Smash Bros. game, though I must admit I replayed that game so many countless times so I wouldn’t care that much if that game is ever added or not.

DK64 is my most wanted for sure. I've been meaning to play it for a while but I just don't wanna emulate it and play it on computer considering how looooong it is

Easily Quest 64 and its other ports(and updated ports), along with the Game Boy games.

But also, any missing Rareware games(even ones that aren't their original IP's at the time, like the Mickey Mouse game). I'd also like to see any missing 64DD games that were finished where plausible. Those would be a great place to throw them onto.

I think it would be cool if they added some of the rare 3rd party games like Clayfighter Sculptures Cut, Castlevania Legacy of Darkness, Daikatana, & Bomberman 64 2nd Act.

More games from Rare is a good thing too, would be great to see all Rare Replay games added plus the dk games & Mickey Speedway USA since i imagine that one may be tougher to get.

I thought this was a GameCube Game? There was a first version on N64?
Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 3D, to be exact. Was for PC and N64. The N64 version omits the word 3D. It also has a Player's Choice version for the US N64 release about a year later.

Diddy Kong Racing: the original game has been locked in legal limbo since Banjo and Conker are owned by Microsoft (the other characters made it into the DS version with no problems), but Nintendo and Microsoft have collaborated on various Switch releases, so it should be doable now. Plus, Diddy Kong Racing with online play would sell a lot of people on the N64 Online.

Donkey Kong 64: I have no idea why this isn't on here already. (I doubt it's because of the inclusion of Jetpac, since DK64 was released on the Wii U)

Banjo-Tooie: this feels like a no-brainer, between the inclusion of Banjo-Kazooie and the fact that Tooie (unlike Kazooie) has multiplayer.

Conker's Bad Fur Day: with the introduction of the 17+ app, this seems like an obvious pick

Super Smash Bros.: I'm surprised it wasn't one of the first titles announced.

Bomberman 64: The Second Attack: if this was added, I'd gladly upgrade to get the N64 Online app; I rented it when I was a kid, but I never finished it, and it goes for about $200 or $300 nowadays, which is not a price I'm willing to pay.

If I had to pick one, I'd say Diddy Kong Racing - out of the games that I listed, it seems the least likely to get a re-release on future consoles, as it relies on Nintendo and Microsoft cooperating. They've been working well together for the past generation or two, but that can change. (also, it seems like it would benefit the most from having online)

6. Resident Evil 2 - Add content cut from this port and modern controls.
5. Mischief Makers - A game unlike any other
4. Virtual Pro Wrestling 64 / Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 - Japanese wrestling counterparts to AKI's N64 WCW and WWF games.
3. Diddy Kong Racing - More multiplayer features please.
2. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 / 2 / 3 - Give all the music full loops like all other ports.
1. Super Smash Bros. 64 - With rollback netcode, matchmaking, and no baked in input delay, this would be the premiere game on the service.

I don't see myself buying the N64 pass unless the Nintendo 64 multiplayer games get rollback and matchmaking though. I already own most of these games, and without that feature, it does not add enough value to me.

Honorable mentions goes to a lot of racing games and the other missing Rare games.
