THPS, Cool Borders, Hot Shots Golf, Motocross Mania, Excite Bike 64, Mario Tennis, Milo's Astro Lanes, NBA Hangtime, etc. I like those types of games.

I’ve never really been a fan of realistic sports games, I like the arcade-style ones much more.
Between SNES, PS1, and N64 I own 4 iterations of the NBA Jam/Hangtime series. Also Super Baseball 2020 is fun.

I did have World Series Baseball and WSB ‘95 on Genesis and they were pretty good, but I mainly just simulated games because I liked managing more. I spent a lot of time on All Star Baseball ‘03 on PS2 because it had a mode where I could act as GM, create a team, and simulate everything. That was fun.

Bluemoon:
I've always found playing old sports games to be like little time capsules of the year they were created not only of the sport they are representing but the music and style of the era

Well.
Sincerely, soccer games are fun, and nowadays it's easier than ever play them when PES/Winning Eleven/eFootball gone free to play and while a first messy launch party, it will possibly improve with the time.

In N64 you have International Super Star Soccer 64 (Winning Eleven) that is still highly regarded nowadays for people that weren't fans of sports games at all.

The hockey games are fun because they are arguably similar to the soccer games, and you have a few.

The Baseball games are fine but they are slow and harder to play, so don't expect something that will make you feel rewarded unlike you know what are you doing.

Basketball is fine, you have NBAjam that don't take itself seriously, or more common ones like NBA in the zone that is fun in shorts bursts.

From there.
If you want something that feels something else than a common sports games, the answer is still Konami's own "International Track and Field 2000" and "Nagano Winter Olympics 98" with their gameplay mostly based on minigames and button mashing.

Cartagia:
The only N64 and PS1 sports games that have really aged that well are a couple of the wrestling titles.

Not sure why you lumped Genesis games in with them, though. I think it's got a pretty solid lineup of sports games, even though they are kind of same.
