Thanks to the release of Rare Replay today, Xbox One owners will now be able to play seven Nintendo 64 classics on Microsoft’s console. Nintendo’s current console, the Wii U, only sells people the chance to play six.
While there is an asterisk to this—Wii U owners can buy and play 15 more N64 games through the Wii U’s last-gen “Wii Mode”—this is another sad indictment of Nintendo’s paltry support for its incredible back catalog.
The Rare Replay compilation runs the following games, which originally were published by Nintendo on the N64:
Killer Instinct Gold
Jet Force Gemini
Blast Corps
Conker’s Bad Fur Day
Banjo-Kazooie
Banjo-Tooie
Perfect Dark
The first four of those games run in an N64 emulator. The last three are presented in the form of their Xbox 360 remakes, which improved the graphics but kept the level design largely intact.
Over on the Wii U’s Virtual Console shop, you can buy and download the following Nintendo 64 games:
Paper Mario
Donkey Kong 64
Super Mario 64
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
Mario Tennis
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
That’s seven for Xbox One, six for Wii U.

I've heard of all of them.
In this case, 6 >>>> 7.

lol.
All of those Nintendo 64 games minus Mario Tennis are legendary in their own right. The only one of those for the XBox is Perfect Dark which I used to play religiously.

Blast Corps
I have such a love-hate relationship with this game. Soooo many hours spent on stupid Backlash dump truck.

It isn't ALL Nintendo's fault, but partly for sure.
3rd parties have to agree to these things too. And Nintendo hates cannibalizing sales in current generations for the most part (and later on, taking advantage of that fact.). This is nothing new.
