This goes to prove that there actually are good gaming options for mobile devices :)

Keep in mind that you'll need a high-end device to be able to play most of the N64 games. A CPU of 1GHz or above is recommended.
I'm using a Nexus S, which has a 1GHz CPU and a strong GPU.

Games work flawlessly unless otherwise mentioned. Most of the games I've only played a couple of minutes in, so they might not work flawlessly later in the game.

N64oid 2.2.1:



Plays well:
A Bug's Life (U).z64
Banjo-Kazooie (U).z64/v64
Castlevania (U) (V1.2).z64
Mario Kart 64 (U).z64
Mortal Kombat 4 (U).z64 - A very few buggy textures, but perfectly playable.
Mortal Kombat Trilogy (U) (V1.2).z64
Paper Mario (U).z64/v64 - Had a very flickery scene, but I've only seen one so far. The rest of the game seems to work perfectly.
Perfect Dark (U) (V1.1).z64 - Plays fine, but has a few model buggs.
F-Zero X (U).z64
Kirby 64 - The Crystal Shards (U).z64 - Works perfectly, but needs keypad instead of analogue stick (go to settings).
Mario Party 1 (U).z64 - Flickers a little, but perfectly playable.
Super Mario 64 (U).v64
Super Smash Bros. (U).z64/v64
Star Fox 64 (U).z64
The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time (U) (V1.2).v64 - A few models are seen through walls and other models, but perfectly playable.
The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time, Master Quest (E).z64 - A few models are seen through walls and other models, but perfectly playable.
The Legend of Zelda - Majora's Mask (U).z64 - A few models are seen through walls and other models, but perfectly playable. Framerate dips a little at times tho.
Yoshi's Story (U).z64/v64 - Plays well, but a lot of textures have small outlines that shouldn't be there.

Unplayable or close to:
1080 Snowboarding (U).z64 - Not tested, but JU version blackscreens on start of race.
Banjo-Tooie (U).z64/v64 - Crashes a lot. Never got to the playing part of the game :/
Blast Corps (U) (V1.1).z64 - Unplayable. Error on startup.
Conker's Bad Fur Day (U).z64 - Severe framerate problems (below 10FPS) and a few buggy textures. Might be playable on super high-end devices.
Disney's Donald Duck - Goin' Quackers (U).z64 - Unplayable. Blackscreens.
Donald Duck - Quack Attack (E).z64 - Unplayable. Blackscreens.
Donkey Kong 64 (U).z64 - Unplayable. Gets stuck in the intro movie sequence.
Mario Party 2 (E).n64 - Borderline unplayable. Has a lot of flickering issues and sometimes invisible textures.
Mario Party 3 (U).z64/v64 - Borderline unplayable. Has a lot of flickering issues and sometimes invisible textures.
Mario Tennis (U).z64 Barely playable. Has framerate problems and a few buggy textures.
Mario Golf (U).z64 - Environment gets black when you're aiming your shot. Moving the camera makes it visible, but only while it's still moving.
Pokemon Stadium (U).z64 - Borderline unplayable. Loads of meny textures are unviewable.
Pokemon Stadium 2 (U).z64 - Unplayable. Hangs right before battles.
Rayman 2 - The Great Escape (U).z64 - Unplayable. Just sound, no visuals.


GAMEBoid 2.4.7:


Golden Sun
Golden Sun 2 - The Lost Age
Mario and Luigi - Superstar Saga - Sometimes crashes when battles start. Try getting "hurt" by it or something else if it keeps happening. Edit: I got to a point in the story where a story fight makes the game crash. It seems like I can't play past this part :(
Super Mario Advance
Zelda - The Minish Cap
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

^These all seem to work :o
Epic GBA emulator.

Is there any classic game I've forgotten to add to the list? Try them yourself :P
Please add the games you've gotten working that aren't on the list already.
