Any good japan-only N64 games? props if they got translations.
Also, feel free to discuss anything related to the console.

Sin and Punishment. That's it.
Doshin sucks and Animal Crossing feels like a beta to the GC release.

Besides sin and punishment not really. And even sin and punishment really was just good for the time in a genre with tons of good games

I feel like I'm not understanding this post. Sin and punishment was only good back then? And the game is from an overcrowded genre?

The hell it is, I wish more games like S&P and Panzer Dragoon existed. Hardly what I'd call an overcrowded genre.

Rocket Robot on Wheels is the best 3D platformer on the entire system, and a criminally overlooked gem.

My chinkshit Switch joystick caps finally arrived today. In a previous thread someone said they wouldn't fit an N64 controller, but these are a perfect fit. Tested them with Starfox 64 and they're definitely more comfortable, but I feel like they would have even better grip if there was some texture.

There are a couple. The other obvious Treasure game besides Sin and Punishment is Bangai O.
Custom Robo 1 and 2 are legit fun games.
Wonder Project J2 is kind of a cult classic at this point, and has an english translation.
There's a bunch of AKI wrestling games that are Japan-only.
The Japan-only Bomberman 64 game from 2001 is fun, not worth the price it sells for now but I assume you have an everdrive.

That would require the N64 to have games to begin with, but check out Dezaemon 3D, it's neat.

There is. To be blunt, it's not what I would call a good game, but it isn't bad either. I'd say it's worth at least a play because of how bizarre it is, and also because it's actually pretty interesting to look at. In terms of presentation it's spot-on, I'd even go as far as say this is still the best looking Evangelion game. Battle Orchestra on PS2 may have better graphics but the art direction is not even close.
Evangelion 2 on PS2/PSP is the only one that could be said to be "better" looking but IMO there's still something off on the art direction and the way the Eva 3D models look.
Somehow they nailed it on N64. This game had a cult "holy grail" item back in 1999 when it came out, and that's because it looks great.
The "gameplay" is not really worth talking about, but let's say it's a rehash of Ultraman SNES game and some added minigames.
Presentation 10/10
Gameplay 5/10

Waaayyy too god damned easy. I was heartbroken spending $50 of my allowance back when it came out. I suppose it's fine if you want a game you can finish in under 2 hours when you're drunk but that's about it.

Check out the longplay and skip it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynW-JRpdQzY

They are light gun games where you removed the light gun and replaced with auto aim and a feeling of dodging. They are shooters without the skill.

Hate to disappoint you OP but there's about 5 or so games on the N64 that everyone doesn't know about. The N64 has a pitiful library.
