===== Notes on Nintendo 64 Games ======

^ //1080° Snowboarding// | also on: Wii |
| Works really well if you turn off the music and enjoy the sounds of the snow and wind. The [[yt>tJA5KmN5d7g|fuzzy music]] is kinda something though. ||
| ||
^ 爆裂無敵 バンガイオー (//Explosive Invincible Bangaioh//) |  |
| The Dreamcast version is preferred by a lot of people for the pacing changes it makes. Maybe later iterations eclipse them both, but I enjoyed this one a lot when I owned it. ||
| ||
^ //Blast Corps// |  |
| Hard to believe it's by Rare, these days. Focused, race-against-the-clock building demolition. There's a really great variety of vehicles to use, most with very different controls schemes, and control methods. ||
| ||
^ //Body Harvest// |  |
| DMA's garish, clunky, sci-fi set, proto-GTA III, is well worth a try. ||
| ||
^ //Bomberman 64// / 爆ボンバーマン |  |
| I really enjoy the one-player game; you can do some crazy stuff with stacking bombs that feels game breaking, but isn't. I really like the sound in this game too: it has that same crispy arcadeyness that //Waverace// has. ||
| ||
^ //Doom 64// | also on: PS4, Switch, Win, XB1 |
|  ||
| ||
^ //Excitebike 64// | also on: Wii U |
| Has some wonderful extra modes: a steep hill descent; hill climb; and a //[[:rocket_league]]//-esque soccer game that will test all the player's bike handling skills. ||
| ||
^ //F-Zero X// |  |
| The game's random track generator is some pretty great extra content, actually. Still my favourite //F-Zero// game after the first one. ||
| ||
^ //[[fighters_destiny_series|Fighter's Destiny]]// / ファイティングカップ (//Fighting Cup//) |  |
| This game, and its sequel Fighter Destiny 2 (no 's'!) are really interesting fighters. Fights are won by scoring points: A ring-out is one point, throws are worth two, and so on; and all this affects your strategy. Losing a round is always just a super move away. ||
| ||
^ //[[hybrid_heaven]]// |  |
| Sort of tedious, and ridiculous, but the game has a really interesting battle system. Basically, it's like a turn-based fighter. The fights are realtime, with the characters jostling for position until their meter fills, allowing either to stop the game and select commands from a menu. There are a lot of attacks to learn, particular to each limb, and they can be strung together for combos. ||
| ||
^ //Lylat Wars// / //Star Fox 64// | also on: Wii |
|  ||
| ||
^ //Mario Tennis// / マリオテニス64 | also on: Wii, Wii U |
| Basically it's Virtua Tennis with a Mario coating. The newer members of the series add some extra shots that sort of ruin everything. ||
| ||
^ //Mischief Makers// / ゆけゆけ！！トラブルメーカーズ |  |
|  ||
| ||
^ //NFL Blitz// |  |
|  ||
| ||
^ //[[Pilotwings 64]]// |  |
|  ||
| ||
^ //Sin & Punishment: Successor to the Earth// | also on: Wii |
|  ||
| ||
^ //Tetrisphere// |  |
|  ||
| ||
^ //Wave Race 64// | also on: Wii |
|  ||
| ||
^ //Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey// |  |
|  ||
| ||
