The N64 is celebrating its 30th anniversary this week, and as we reflect on this glorious 64-bit system in all sorts of ways here on Nintendo Life, Circana has joined in on the fun with a list of the “top 200 best-selling Nintendo 64 games” in the US, ranked by unit sales.<\/p>\n

This list comes from Circana Retail Tracking Service (via Circana’s senior director and video game industry advisor Mat Piscatella). He further notes how this data includes US unit sales of N64 games sold on cart for the N64 only, and does not include later ports.<\/p>\n

It’s worth noting the current celebrations taking place this week line up with Japan’s June 1996 release, with the system launching in the US in September 1996. So, here are the “top 200” N64 games for this location in “reverse order”, with the top 10 filled with plenty of classic Nintendo IP. No sales figures are attached.<\/p>\n
