All N64 Games #200: Power Pros Baseball 6
I’m not really sure what else I can say about this franchise – it was a yearly release in Japan and the core gameplay never really seemed to change much.

All N64 Games #199: Triple Play 2000
Yet another company trying their hand at a baseball game, although this series had already been on the PlayStation. This baseball game does stand out from the others on the N64 – for both good and bad reasons.

All N64 Games #198: Micro Machines 64 Turbo
While the only Micro Machine toys I remember having were the Star Wars playsets, the Micro Machines video games on the Mega Drive were a big part of my early childhood.

All N64 Games #197: Beetle Adventure Racing!
Beetle Adventure Racing has a rather odd story of how it was created. EA gave a team the task of making a Need for Speed for the N64. Instead of doing this, they developed their own idea for a car game, one they felt suited the N64 more.

All N64 Games #196: Pokémon Snap
This is a game I had as a kid, and I ended up trading it in because of how much is annoyed me. All these years later, I still have the same major problem with the game

All N64 Games #195: The Game of Life 64
When it comes to making a video game version of The Game of Life, the Japanese publisher Takara haven’t just made a digital recreation of the board game, but have instead properly adapted the game to take advantage of being a video game.

All N64 Games #194: King of Pro Baseball 2
King of Pro Baseball 2 feels a lot more stable and smooth than the first game.

All N64 Games #193: Sumo 64 2
I really enjoyed the first Sumo 64 game, much to my surprise. It had simple but quick gameplay, and an intriguing story that went a bit off the rails (in a fun way) by the end.

All N64 Games #192: California Speed
California Speed seems like what the Cruis’n games would be like if they were competently made.

All N64 Games #191: Vigilante 8
I remember having a lot of fun with the sequel to Vigilante 8, Second Offence, but never played the first.

All N64 Games #190: Snowboard Kids 2
Some sequels try to reinvent the wheel, others try to make improvements on the original while some, like Snowboard Kids 2, just provide more of the same.

All N64 Games #189: WCW Nitro
This wrestling game feels like it’s trying to be more of an arcade style fighter than a wrestling game.

All N64 Games #188: Harvest Moon 64
The biggest problem with Harvest Moon 64 is that Stardew Valley now exists. Everything that Harvest Moon 64 does, Stardew has done it better.

All N64 Games #187: Legend of the Flying Dragon
In their review of the PAL version of Flying Dragon, N64 Magazine said that the game had squandered potential. The thing is, by the time the PAL version came out, Japan already had the sequel, and it seems to be the game the N64 was wanting.

All N64 Games #186: Parlor Pro 64: Pachinko Simulation
I’m not sure what it is about developers of Pachinko games, but none of them seem to quite know what humans look like.

All N64 Games #185: Castlevania
In 1997, the PlayStation got Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. It got great reviews and is now considered to be an amazing game. However, it didn’t sell well. Unfortunately, this era of consoles looked down poorly on 2D games.

All N64 Games #184: Super Smash Bros.
Considering it’s humble beginnings, I don’t think Nintendo ever expected Super Smash Bros. to be such an important part of its line-up of games on future consoles.

All N64 Games #183: J.League Tactics Soccer
J.League Tactics Soccer is a Japanese-only football management game. So a ton of text, figures and sitting and watching.

All N64 Games #182: Vivid Dolls
A game running on Seta’s N64-based Aleck 64 arcade cabinet, this is something that Nintendo probably wouldn’t have allowed on the N64 itself – a porn game.

All N64 Games #181: BattleTanx
In the future year of 2001, a virus will ravage the Earth and have a 98% death rate amongst “females”. The governments of the world tried to create “quarantine zones” to protect the “females”.
