N-Europe Features
N-Europe's world renowned and knowledgable features can be found here...
All N64 Games #61: WCW vs. nWo: World Tour
It took a while for the N64 to get its first wrestling game, although it ended up getting a LOT after this one.

All N64 Games #60: Heiwa Pachinko World 64
Pachinko, from what I understand is a “totally not gambling” gambling machine popular in Japan. It seems to be a mixture of a pinball machine, 10p machine and a slot machine.

All N64 Games #59: Family Stadium 64
Yet another Japanese only baseball game, this time from Namco. This one, however, features a different style of batting and some other fun features – such as a Namco-themed stadium.

All N64 Games #58: Chopper Attack
Chopper Attack (or Wild Choppers) is a game that’s clearly inspired by the [Terrain] Strike series of games.

All N64 Games #57: Sumo 64
N64 Magazine gave this Japanese-only sumo wrestling a rather impressive 90%. Even so, I was surprised as to how much I actually enjoyed this.

All N64 Games #56: Automobili Lamborghini
Another car racing game, and this one is a mixed bag. It’s an arcade-style racer but everyone begins on the starting line

All N64 Games #55: Diddy Kong Racing
Pretty much all racing games on the N64 so far have the same problem: there’s not a lot of progression for a single player. Which is where Diddy Kong Racing comes in.

All N64 Games #54: Pro Mahjong Extreme 64
Another Mahjong game, and this one is the most basic one yet. There are a couple of main modes, either gambling or pro.

All N64 Games #53: Aero Fighters Assault
I very rarely suffer from motion sickness in video games, but Aero Fighters Assault was so nauseating that I got a pretty bad headache as a result.

All N64 Games #52: San Francisco Rush: Extreme Racing
When I hear the name “San Francisco Rush”, I think of one of this game’s sequels, 2049, as it was something N64 Magazine loved. I never saw a lot of discussion of the original.

All N64 Games #51: Puyo Puyo Sun 64
My main experience with Puyo Puyo is Dr Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine – a game I couldn’t enjoy because of colourblind issues, so I was dreading playing this one.

All N64 Games #50: Duke Nukem 64
Duke Nukem 64 is a port of Duke Nukem 3D, a PC game from a 1995. It still retains that “DOOM” feeling, although the levels are much more 3D.

All N64 Games #49: Extreme-G
This is one I played a lot when I was younger. An extremely fast futuristic racing game on tron-like sci-fi motorbikes.

All N64 Games #48: NFL Quarterback Club 98
Another American Football game released on the same day as Madden 64, and it feels mostly the same.
Posted by Dean Jones 7 months ago
All N64 Games #47: Madden Football 64
So, American Football. I know almost nothing about it and this is my first proper experience with it.

All N64 Games #46: J.League Eleven Beat 1997
The fourth different football series for Japan, this one has a much more cartoony/anime style, and I think it suits he N64 quite well.

All N64 Games #45: ClayFighter 63⅓
The Clayfighter series are parody games that supposedly make fun of other fighting games. Previous entries made fun of Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat, while this one tackles Killer Instinct.

All N64 Games #44: Tommy Thunder
Tommy Thunder was a game in development by Player 1. It eventually moved to the PlayStation before getting cancelled.

All N64 Games #43: Top Gear Rally
Top Gear Rally was loved so much by N64 Magazine that they dropped Multi-Racing Championship’s score from 81% to 71%, claiming that it was scored high because it was first.

All N64 Games #42: Mace: The Dark Age
Most of what I said about War Gods remains true to Mace: The Dark Age. It’s another bare bones Mortal Kombat clone with a small amount of 3D movement
