Although I haven't played the 64 game I get the just of how it plays. The graphics are a little forgivable but I might have troubles with the camera. Sure it might be fun but it's also frustrating if you fail on certain levels (plus water which is already a pain to some people who hate timers).
So I'd pick Donkey Kong Country. First off the music is awesome, the graphics are better than average, the levels are unique and full of a wide variety of challenges, and you'll love the dialogue from Cranky if you are an avid Nintendo fan because he has a lot of funny little things to say. You cannot beat the Jungle, rain, pond, factory, minecart, hidden warps, minigames, and personality of Diddy Kong and Donkey Kong. If it's a decision of handheld ports then I'd still say the GBA DKC because it has an even higher quality of sound, smaller screen, a sound test area, and a secret Diddy Kong Quest as well as the unlimited time you'll take to 100% each stage, play the 2 main minigames that give you photos, as well as fooling around. Oh and another plus, you can ride animals that counts as like another "heart" to your health bar of 2. Donkey Kong can just uses the ground slap Diddy cannot.
 
I'd go for DKC as well. I had so much fun playing that game when I was younger, SM64 was fun too but it wasn't the same feeling/challenge at all.

As Artisan said, the music is awesome. I'm more towards the SNES version though, or the 3DS one. I can't really talk about the GBA one as I never tried it.

I Agree with you and @SunnyWindy on the music part, I did enjoy it.. BUT I think super Mario 64 gave me the better adventure though :/
 
I'd have to go with DKC on this one. I was literally glued to this game. xD

It's an awesome adventure game, full of levels in many different environments, secret areas to explore and those animals were fun to use from time to time! Collecting those mini gold things in the animal minigames were fun! (I forgot what their names are) They consist of a rhino, swordfish and flamingo. :p

Some of the levels were really challenging, and needed a lot of goes on them. I eventually did give up but always tried again and again. ^.^

SM64 is still a great game though, don't get me wrong.

I'd have to go with Super Mario 64 since I've never played Donkey Kong Country. :bag:
I felt like Super Mario 64 gave me the freedom I've always wanted like running around Peach's castle. The adventure was awesome too.
 
Super Mario 64 was a hard game the starts were hard to get when you are playing on your PC,the graphics were good too plus I never really liked donkey kong games.Some of them were not fun to me.

I've never played Donkey Kong Country and Super Mario 64 is one of my favorite games, so, I think you know where I'm going with this...

I choose Banjo Kazooie.

Super Mario 64.

SuperMario64 the music is epic and the secret stars are fun to find and collect!

And the Easter eggs when taking the shortcut in the Snowy World when you have to win the Penguin in a sliding ice race. To get a Star, I cheated and she didn't liked it. BOO. :eek:

To me I would say that both of the games are really really amazing but my choice would go to Donkey Kong Country since I found myself playing it more than I should have which was not something that I had when I was playing Super Mario 64 . I must agree that both of the games gave a really good adventure but I am choosing Donkey Kong Country over Super Mario 64 though I like them equally :)

I think the best game currption wise is super Mario 64 because when go to the start screen mario face changes in terrifying ways for example looking like a dead pig or a satanic demon spawn from hell which I should tell you that it does not look pretty. Even the game shark corruptions are pretty bad too for example Mario's leg twitching with agony or Mario's face fazing through the floor like crazy. Pretty much anything can go wrong with any thing. Curruptions aren't just plain out bad with this game. There are other games that look terrifying or just plain out funny like donkey kong country or it can be an NES,ds,play station, PC either game can become a currupted satanic nightmare which as known as hell.

even through I've never play super mario 64 but i'm probably going to go for donkey kong country because i can imagined him ding something crazy like throw someone or something off the edge of the map makes me laugh if that were to ever happen

I have never played donkey Kong country before so I guess I don't have a fair place in which one is better. However I have played super Mario 64 for the DS and absolutely loved it. It put the "3-D" in 3-D platfroming. I actually went all the way is to collect all 150 stars in the game and all the secret stages as well.
