Please help me identify these N64 games!

Hey guys!

I just won an auction with one N64 with 3 controllers, and some games which I'm not sure I can pick out (that it had games were just a bonus, really). I see Goldeneye in there, Quake 2, Blast Corps, Zelda, Rayman 2, Fifa (?), but what are the other ones? I know this is kind of a weak thing to post about, but I'm really curious, so a mod can feel free to lock this down when I get answers. :P

I really appreciate any help you can give. Here's the photo;

edit: I'd much rather post this in the ol' N64 thread that was around some month ago, but I can't seem to find it. Could anyone provide me with a link?

Also, is it possible to mod a UK console like this(http://guidesarchive.ign.com/guides/n64/usmodification.html Buying games from the US is much cheaper, and if I can just remove a dust guard to mod it, then I'll probably do that.

    Blast Corp
    Castlevania 64
    Clayfighter 63 1/3rd
    Rayman 2
    Goldeneye

    Above Ocarina of Time is South Park. At least I think I'm seeing the heads and toques of the boys on there.

    Two below Rayman 2 is Waialae Country Club.

    No idea on the one above Quake 2. I'm guessing the one beside Top Gear is one of the International Superstar Soccer games, but I really don't know.

    Sweet, thanks for the help guys. I think I've almost got them all, but I'm not sure about Castlevania 64. Anywho, does anyone know anything about modding the 64? I'll be getting a PAL console, and I'd love to be able to play NTSC games. :)

    N64 has no region locking that I'm aware of. You can make the N64 play any game as long as you can fit it into the 64. They make a sort of empty cart attachment that fits in and you can plug any game into that. Sort of like a gameshark sans any codes I believe. Or you could mod the top plastic bits of the 64 itself.

    Dunno what was in your link, I get a 404.

    I think you can also go the SNES route with the American N64: Cut off the two little tabs in the cartridge slot. Then, your japanese games will fit without needing to buy anything extra.

    I fixed the link, now you should see how it's done. As far as I understand, all you need to do is open up the console, and take out a grey dust guard to make any time of game fit into the box? That IGN guide is for US consoles, will it work for PAL consoles too?

    Ah memories, the N64.. I fondly remember it, how much I wanted one but at the time Nintendo priced themselves out of the competition (at least in the UK) by pricing it way above the Playstation. The prices of the games themselves was pure unadulterated extortion.

    Hopefully we'll never see cartridges again (at least for non-portable consoles), but that said there are now 32GB portable flash drives so I wouldn't say it's outside the realm of possibility.

    Oh yeah, bring in Space Station Silacon Valley, and Rocket:Robo bugaloo, and you have about my whole N64 collection.

    The game in between Quake II and Top Gear Overdrive looks like Premier Manager 64.

    The top one of the left looks like Micro Machines 64. Awesome game, and easily the best one in the series.
