RE: Currently most desired trivia
Here's some for Mario 64 If you'd like it:

The first game where Charles Martinet provided the voice of Mario wasn't Super Mario 64, but rather in a game called "Mario's Game Gallery" which came out for the PC on December 31st 1995. Super Mario 64 came out on June 23rd 1996 in Japan, and September 26th 1996 in America.

If you connect a second controller into the N64, you can use it to control the camera during the end scene where Peach congratulates Mario, as well as during the credits.

Miyamoto has stated that he experimented with 2-player co-op in Super Mario 64. However, the hardware limitations of the time wouldn't allow it, and Luigi was dropped early on in it's development.

Princess Peach's castle shows up in the Royal Raceway track in Mario Kart 64, but you can actually drive to the castle during play. After the boost jump midway through, the castle appears on your right. Just take the yellow path to it and you can drive around the castle grounds. You'll probably lose the race, but you know... neat little tidbit.

Lastly, dunno if anyone posted this yet. One of the biggest "finds" for Super Mario 64 was that the statue in the courtyard outside of Boo's Mansion reads "L is real 2401". Many rumors kept pointing in different directions as to what it could mean. One of the more popular theories was that the L stood for Luigi and the 2401 had something to do with Paper Mario's release date being 2/4/01 (it wasn't), meaning that Luigi was going to be playable in Paper Mario (he wasn't). What made it all the more mysterious was that the same plaque with the same text could also be found in Ocarina of Time, inside Dodongo's cavern. To this day no one has ever confirmed what it meant.

Sorry if I went all out on my first post...
