Nintendo 64

Here we have all the games in the Nintendo 64 Section.
Nintendo 64
RPG
Follows up the spankingly good Paper Mario combining it skilfully with RPG elements to delve deeper into the colourful Mario world. The balance is just right for those who like their RPG action to be kept fairly simple without too many treks to remote caves to light a lantern all beautifully coated in Nintendo’s saccharine sweetness.

Sports
Cute and cuddly Nintendo themed tennis title with a devious undercurrent of tough, uncompromising AI that’ll only allow those with a full array of shots and the intelligence to use them to reach the pinnacle of the sport. A smash in four player – especially the Bowser stage that comes complete with Mario Kart power ups that’d surely bring a smile to even the most conservative Wimbledon spectator.

Sports
Impressive sense of speed and decent draw distance as sharp reflexes are need to combat the tight corners and keep your bumper ahead of the opposition. The feel of Sega Rally is in there: perhaps no surprise given the team that developed it contained some break away members of that mythical programming team.
Nintendo 64
Simulation
An immense experience is available in this strategic RPG with such fine attention to detail in spite of the limited capacity of carts. Every character seems to have the variables needed to bring them to life in relation to others and this created the feel of a living world in which to send out troops in different formations to succeed in battle. A lavish amount of detail makes this a truly believable experience.

A Bit Special
Amazingly recreates the feel of flying through the sky be it on the rocket belt or gyrocopter flying through hoops or chasing the thermals to stay up in the hangglider to get a better photo of a whale. Packed full of ideas – a breath of fresh air to the games industry.

Action
Take on a wealth of weird and wonderful Pokemon Monsters from what looks like a GB Pocket Camera, a heap of sludge or a koi carp out of water. Players battle it out choosing their hand carefully to avoid ineffectual attacks within varied and imaginative arenas.
Nintendo 64
Sports
Konami includes all the ingredients required to make a masterful representation of the sport, just like the Bero Flour men characters in game would. You can almost smell the hot dogs and see the spilt popcorn as a home run gets hit.

Sports
The Powerful Pro series has been a long-standing podium success in Konami’s sporting teams CV. The graphical style endears itself well to the player, yet the simple to pick up, trickier to master play mechanics combine old school SNK sports titles with the moves needed to build up a whole dome full of dedicated fans. Definitely more Tokyo Giants than Nippon Ham.
Nintendo 64
Sports
Utilises out of proportion players with giant heads in a similar style to Konami’s popular Power Pro Baseball series. Also features the major teams of the Japanese pro league so players can savour match ups such as the Yakult Swallows vs. Nippon Ham. The simultaneous four player mode is as enjoyable as the slick play mechanics. Known in Japan as ‘Chou Kuukan Night Pro Yakyuu King.’
Nintendo 64
Puzzle
Puyo Puyo is Japanese onomatopoeia for something soft to touch, referring to the jelly like balls that fall from the sky to be aligned with similar colours in this saccharine soaked, kawaii puzzler.
Nintendo 64
Action
The essence of pure four player competitive action taking full advantage of the 64’s generous ports. Match up balloons of the same colour to clear your screen. So simple, yet so fiendishly compulsive. Essential after hours entertainment.
Nintendo 64
Simulation
A version of the Japanese chess game featuring famed player Habu. An intriguing game for the cerebral gamer or one for the collection.
Nintendo 64
Sports
The oldest course in world golf gets a fitting tribute in this relaxing golf game with good putting set up to avoid nutter with the putter syndrome. Good use of the rich heritage of the course with the buildings and famous bridges well created using the 64s polygon power.
Nintendo 64
Sports
A rare title being a ski game as opposed to a more common snowboard sim. Players face cave off routes, cheeky short cuts with rope bridges, hazardous sheet ice and helicopters in a title reminiscent of a certain arcade game. Opponents spray powder in players faces in the ultimate insult giving greater determination to beat them down the slope.
Nintendo 64
Shooter
Creates a Miyamoto style world fun of wonder to its giant vines and exotic bird calls as the Twins take on mutant insect armed praying mantis’, often with a few too many arms. There are some very mild puzzle elements to open gates to progress – nothing taxing and the friendly characters are a real treat to encounter. Plenty of polish too to ensure no dead ends. A great title for the system.
Nintendo 64
Action
Fun title from Hudson with a series of mini games to use the B Daman’s prowess for projecting spheres from their mecha skeleton. Includes playing pool, hammer the mole arcade action, dinosaur hunting, a rally section and an all out battle with a bunch of rogue pandas. Very enjoyable, superb for a quick blast.

Miyamoto san’s masterpiece was well worth the wait creating the dream world where anything seems possible he often refers to in interviews. Genki loves to challenge that penguin to one more bob sled ride down the mountain and to splash around in the gloriously realised sea. Will bring a smile to the face of the most grizzled of gaming veterans.

Action
Robot Wars stars a host of recognisable robots from animes such as Gundam or Mazinger Z used to good effect with their trademark moves and soundtracks kicking in at the right moment. Players battle other robots and the money earnt can be used on upgrades or simple repairs ready for the next battle.

One on One Beat Em Up
Plenty of all-star combatants from the Nintendo range, taking each other on in innovative arenas with plenty of little touches, such as dust clouds on impact, that relay that Nintendo magic. Yet beneath the pretty candy coloured characters lies a pretty brutal fight engine.

System exclusive that uses expansively wide dirt tracks to be really able to savour a power slide. Good reflections of the clouds and skies on the car windscreen and a good level of roadside detail. Its ultimate selling point is probably the ability to be able to take short cuts: a much underused cheat for racing games.
Nintendo 64
Sports
Water physics so realistic you feel the brine in your face with every wave smashing into your jet ski pushing you off course. Feels so good with responsive controls via the analogue stick. Nintendo’s raison d’etre.

Platform
Follow up to the Super Famicom cracker. Puppet, or that should read robot, maker Dr Gepetto has just died in the sad intro, but not before telling the robot he created called Josette to master the skills he was built with in this RPG-esque adventure. Well actually its more down to the San to teach him right from wrong and not spare the rod. Josette is beautifully animated and his journey of discovery is a joy to watch unfold with heart wrenching expression. A special achievement considering this was such an early release for the N64.
