All N64 Games #179: Big Mountain 2000

Tuesday, 13 Aug 2024

1080° is built from quality stuff, Snowboard Kids is a lot of fun and Twisted Edge is dodgy, but has a few almost neat ideas. Big Mountain 2000, however, is just completely bland.

All N64 Games #175: South Park

Tuesday, 13 Aug 2024

All N64 Games #171: Hey You, Pikachu!

Tuesday, 13 Aug 2024

Hey You, Pikachu! took almost two years to make it from Japan to the USA, and never came out in Europe. This was mainly due to the Voice Recognition Unit that came with the game – which is essentially a microphone were you could say words for Pikachu to understand.
