It always struck me as odd the N64 got so shafted in the RPG department. RPGs excel at reusing assets, you'd think with the limited space on those cartridges it would have been the premiere genre.

I was going to say the opposite, that a cartridge-based system hurt RPGs due to the direction they were heading (3D enviromnents/characters, larger worlds, FMVs, highly detailed backgrounds, etc). N64 using cartridges instead of CDs was a main reason for Squaresoft jumping to PlayStation, after all. --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran ...

If it counts, my vote goes to Hybrid Heaven. Some people say it's an action adventure game but even the designers themselves refer to it as an action RPG so I'm going by what they said.
Other than that, I guess I'd choose Paper Mario for the sole reason that it's a Mario game. Otherwise, I choose nothing. Harvest Moon 64 is simulation, Quest 64 blows chunks and I've never played the other 2-3 RPGs on the system nor do I want to. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Pokemon stadium 1 and 2 Most definitely not RPGs. Closest thing to an RPG in either of these is playing RBY and GSC on them. Outside of that, they're both literally just turn-based battles and minigames. --- "Why bother with statistics when reality has already given you its answer." - Purple Heart ... Copied to Clipboard!

RPGs excel at reusing assets, you'd think with the limited space on those cartridges it would have been the premiere genre. The 3D is exactly what would have saved the space. Keep in mind, geometry was much simpler in those days. Games could be quite small so long as you could avoid some things. Take EverQuest as an example, released in '99 and didn't quite hit 500MB in its original form. EQ was humongous, you could spend hours traveling from one place to another. As you did mention, the FMVs and prerendered backdrops were what was space consuming, and while they were the new hotness for CD based systems, because they had the space, they weren't really necessary for a good game. There's no reason they couldn't have put the N64's reasonable power advantage to use handling things like cutscenes in engine, sort of like Skies of Arcadia did some years later. Not that every RPG needs to be huge, but I believe with some judicious texturing they could have created some things with pretty impressive scope. It just would have required they confront and accept the machine's shortcomings, while playing to its strengths. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Aidyn Chronicles isn't good until you learn how the mechanics work, which aren't clearly stated.

The complete dearth of RPGs is why N64 is the only Nintendo console I've never owned. I played at friends' houses or the school gaming club, mostly Smash Bros. But never saw a point to own one.
Quest 64 was utterly terrible. Paper Mario seemed like a sick joke, coming off the masterpiece that was SMRPG on SNES Pokemon Stadium and Zelda games I wouldn't count as RPGs. I didn't even know about the Ogre series back then or that there was a game on N64 for it, but I assume that one was at least decent. So, only three genuine RPGs in the whole library. One was ass, another I never even heard of, and the third looked fucking stupid. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Aidyn Chronicles I was hoping to see this one get a mention. My vote most likely goes to Ogre Battle 64, though my heart wants to give it to Super Robot Wars 64 instead. --- -- I Abibde / Samuraiter Laughing at Game FAQs since 2002. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I had a lot of fun with Paper Mario. It was great. Quest 64 wasn't bad once you got the hang out it. It took a little, but I had fun. Never played Orge Battle...
I'm not sure if you can count Pokmon Stadium or Zelda as RPGs, but they were fun. --- Official King of Kings Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you. I'm probably the LinkPizza you'll see around. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Paper Mario. I still think the original is the best in the series, with Color Splash in second place.
