All N64 Games #64: Dual Heroes
Dual Heroes is often stated as the worst fighting game on the N64, originally scoring 28% at N64 Magazine. However, Dual Heroes is quite fascinating as it has some really interesting features

All N64 Games #63: Wayne Gretzky’s 3D Hockey ’98
Yearly sports updates are tricky things to review, as some can bring big improvements, some minor improvements and some just update the stats.

All N64 Games #62: Wheel of Fortune
With a score of 17% from N64 magazine, I was expecting something truly atrocious from this. Yet, despite the wonky looking graphics, it does a good job at what it’s supposed to do.

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.

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.
