I very rarely bother with additional content so I'm probably not well suited to answer this but I thought the extra challenges in Pikmin 2 were fantastic. I remember finishing the game left me just wanting more, and that is exactly what I got with the additional challenges mode.
If you mean things which are incorporated inside the game ... I suppose the drug dealing mini game in GTA: Chinatown. I was totally hooked on that and spent dozens of hours just doing drug runs instead of pushing ahead with the plot missions.
I imagine nowadays it's all about online modes with games like GTA and Metal Gear Solid etc

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu
Pikmin 3 also has them? Awesome. I will need to get to that one of these days. In fact I have no idea why I never played Pikmin 3. The first two are amongst my favourite games ever and I spent forever blathering about how they need to make a sequel, and then they did ... and I still haven't played it. Instead I spent my time playing tosh like Hey! Pikmin.

Oblivion Horse Armor?
A lot of people at Recetera say Witcher 3’s side quest are the best. It’s hard to disagree.
I liked the Dark Brotherhood stuff from Oblivion.
I'd put Yakuza over Witcher. Its side stuff has more heart.
Oh...I thought you meant DLC or expansion packs.
Side stuff...shit...I'd have to think about that.

Oh you definitely need to check it out. I think it's the best in the series. the only complaint I've really heard about it from anyone was that they did not like having to juggle three separate commanders for tasks. Other than that, I think it borrowed the things the first one did right that the second one didn't bring along and made a damn good game.
Kafei and Anju sidequest from Majora's Mask?
Majora's Mask did have some great stuff. I used to love the fishing stuff in Ocarina of Time back in the day too. Seems barebones now, but it was great at the time.
Also, the card game in Final Fantasy 8.....wasted hours on that.
Oh man, I loved the card game in Final Fantasy VIII. Put countless hours into it.
i found Splatoon's Squid Jump mini game to be a lot of fun.
Mercaneries mode in RE4
Mission mode in Ninja Gaiden
Bloody Palace in Devil May Cry
Angel Slayer n Witch Trials in the Bayonetta games
What game do you think has the best side content? My vote goes toward the Arkham games especially Arkham Asylum. The Ridfler trophy search is just plain fun and sometimes more compelling than the main quest. I love the environmental puzzles. What about you?
