All N64 Games #325: Randnet Disk
The Randnet Disk for the 64DD isn’t really a game, but I thought it was interesting enough to talk about.

All N64 Games #324: NBA In the Zone 2000
This is such a boring game to talk about, that the most interesting thing I can point out is that this game kept the name “In the Zone” in PAL regions.

All N64 Games #323: ECW Hardcore Revolution
While it’s very easy to see the progression in Aki’s N64 wrestling games, it’s just as easy to see the lack of progression in Acclaim’s.

All N64 Games #322: Tarzan
This game, based on Disney’s Tarzan, doesn’t even try to tell a story. There’s no text between levels, no cutscenes. So instead, it’s just a story about a young boy that murders every animal in the jungle.

All N64 Games #321: Ridge Racer 64
Ridge Racer was a massive success on PlayStation, and Namco were not very interested in the N64. Instead of working on an N64 version of Ridge Racer, they allowed Nintendo to develop and publish their own Ridge Racer game

All N64 Games #320: Vigilante 8: Second Offence
This was one of my multiplayer favourites as a kid, although playing it again now, and I remember this having more stuff than it actually does.

All N64 Games #318: Virtual Pro Wrestling 2: Royal Road Succession
If you’re a fan of AKI’s wrestling game on the N64 and don’t mind the lack of famous Western wrestlers, then Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 is something very much worth checking out.

All N64 Games #317: Goemon Mononoke Sugoruku
There’s no good way to translate “Goemon Mononoke Sugoruku”. Mononoke are a kind of vengeful spirit, but can also be a term for a shapeshifting creature, while Sugoruku refers to one of two board games, in this case a very simple roll and move board game.

Robopon (short for Robot Ponkottsu, essentially “Robot Trash”) is a game that was very much inspired by Pokémon, launching on the Game Boy Color with Sun and Star versions, followed up by a Moon version.

All N64 Games #315: Penny Racers 2: Chaotic Grand Prix
The second game on the N64 that is based on the Japanese Choro Q toy cars. This one never made it out of Japan, which is a shame

All N64 Games #314: Brunswick Circuit Pro Bowling
Brunswick Circuit Pro Bowling is possibly the most sterile game I’ve ever played.

All N64 Games #313: Monopoly
Monopoly is an atrocious board game. I’ve played many, many board games, and none are as horrible as Monopoly is. Most of the game is just autopilot – roll dice, move, do the obvious action (buy property/pay rent).

All N64 Games #312: Viewpoint 2064
For starters, I do like how they used “2064” to mark this as an N64 name, it feels much more natural like that. I didn’t even notice what the game was doing with the name to start with.

All N64 Games #311: Mario Party 2
I’m really not the best person to talk about Mario Party. I really personally dislike the board game parts of it, especially the roll and move aspect. That said, I can clearly see that Mario Party 2 is much improved from the first game in many areas.

All N64 Games #310: Bassmasters 2000
Looking at other reviews of the fishing game Bassmasters, it got a few high scores, but then IGN gave it a 3.1. Quickly reading a few of them, I think I know why: IGN had played In-Fisherman Bass Hunter 64, while the others haven’t.

All N64 Games #309: Roadsters
Roadsters is very much a refined sequel to Automobili Lamborghini. You can tell it’s built upon the same game engine, and many elements feel incredibly similar – including the very odd mix of realistic and arcade elements.
