All N64 Games #36: Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon
I remember seeing the scores for Mystical Ninja in N64 game, but it didn’t seem like my kind of game. I was very wrong about that.

All N64 Games #35: Mahjong Drifters Chronicles Classic
Right after Mahjong Road 64 is yet another Mahjong Game. However, this one is a little bit more interesting as it’s a visual novel as well as a Mahjong game

All N64 Games #34: Mahjong Road 64
The N64’s third Mahjong game and I’m running out out of things to say about Mahjong. The interface improves a little bit over Mahjong 64, but still isn’t as clear as Mahjong Masters.

All N64 Games #33: MRC: Multi-Racing Championship
If you need to explain your acronym in the title of the game, don’t use an acronym. “Multi-Racing Championship” is fine on its own.

All N64 Games #32: Dark Rift
The N64’s early life was filled with disappointing arcade ports, but Dark Rift was the N64’s first fighting game that was specifically created from the ground up for it.

All N64 Games #28: International Superstar Soccer 64
The international version of J.League Perfect Striker was a brand that has changed over time. International Superstar Soccer later became Pro Evolution Soccer and its reputation has decreased over time

All N64 Games #25: Mahjong 64
The N64’s second Mahjong game. This one has you graduating a Mahjong school rather than competing against against increasingly skilled players.

All N64 Games #24: DOOM 64
A name like DOOM 64 gives the impression that this is a port of the popular DOOM – especially as the original game did get a lot of ports.

All N64 Games #23: J.League Live 64
J.League Live 64 is essentially FIFA 64 for the Japanese J.League. However, it does have notable differences from the Western version of the game

All N64 Games #21: Doraemon: Nobita and the Three Fairy Spirit Stones
Doraemon is a very popular anime/manga character. I’ve definitely seen the robo cat’s design before. The first N64 outing took inspiration from Super Mario 64

All N64 Games #20: Blast Corps
This game takes a silly concept and just has a ton of fun with it. The story is simple: there is a nuclear missile being transported on an automated truck. The truck malfunctions and heads to a location in a straight line. If it collides with anything, it will explode. Your mission is to destroy everything in its path.

All N64 Games #19: Power Pros Baseball 4
Another Japanese only baseball game, this time from the long running Power Pros series, with its bobblehead style design and rather charming graphics.

All N64 Games #18: Turok: Dinosaur Hunter
The Nintendo 64’s first first person shooter is in some ways what you would expect from first person shooters in the early N64 days – something along the lines of Doom and Quake, but focusing a bit more on movement
