Re: The best four player games?

You might not be interested in NES games, but I shelled out $30 for the NES Satellite in the early '90s just to have 4-player Nintendo World Cup. It's the only soccer game i've enjoyed and with four players it's ridiculous. RC Pro-AM 2 would probably be good as well.

I'm looking over a list of Super Multitap games and I'm not seeing many options for the SNES. If you like free-wheeling basketball games, NBA JAM T.E. is a blast and supports 4 players. The Peace Keepers with four players sounds intriguing, reminiscent of the old multiplayer arcade beat 'em ups like Final Fight. Secrets of Mana is hard enough with getting 2 players to move cooperatively together, so I imagine 3 would be pretty irritating.

Since I believe the N64 had 4 controller ports, there should be alot more games that support 3-4 players. The obvious choices would be GoldenEye 007 and Mario Kart 64. Super Smash Bros series and Perfect Dark are good too.

I have four gamepads on my computer and now me and my 3 buddies are looking to expand our horizons from just PC's limited library of good pad games. I'm mostly looking for good four player games from SNES and N64, but suggestions from any console are okay as long as the games are good. Anyone have any ideas?
