On N64, Nintendo's jet ski racer impressed players with realistic waves and cool special effects. The physics were so good, that many considered Wave Race to be the benchmark (at the time) for video game water.

The Game Boy edition, meanwhile, was a standard issue racer that lacked the awe-inspiring effects of its big brother, largely due to a top down perspective and lack of processing muscle.

I didn't get into handhelds until the DS Lite. The Modojo has a few ideas about which games should have probably stayed in the living room (more at source link); what others can you guys think of that should be on this list?
