Why it Made the Top 100 List: The first and best of the jet ski games, Wave Race 64, a first-wave launch title Nintendo's cartridge-based system, incorporated water physics into racing unlike any game before it, or any since. The simple concept of racing on jet skis was complicated by changing wave patterns, swells, and rising tides, and Nintendo added its trademark depth to broaden and deepen the unique racer. The trick-based mini-games were addicting, the levels well thought out, and the constant spontaneity of the waves always made things challenging. The fact that you could unlock a rideable dolphin was icing on the cake.
Why it Made the Top 100 List: Nintendo needed Super Mario World to sell its all-new system, the SNES. As a result, Shigeru Miyamoto and crew designed one of the best platformers in existence. With its dazzling array of detail-rich worlds and character design (not to mention awesome sound and music) Super Mario World helped usher in the 16-bit era. But it wasn't just eye candy. Fans of the series welcomed Super Mario World's intricate design and finely tuned game mechanics every bit as much as the juicy visuals. Nintendo produced a classic title with Super Mario World, one as every bit engrossing as previous efforts.

Not really. The Mario that really matters will be top 10, maybe number 1. They can't put all the Mario games that basically just improved on the existing formula in the top 10. Wave Race is a little high for me because Jet Ski games aren't exactly HUGE because of it, but I get why it's higher than Mario World. Wave Race was something new, Mario World was something old done better.
Bramsterdam (see ya):
I think goldeneye should be higher, thats like the most popular n64 game
