Banjo Kazooie is fabulous

Advantages: good for all ages, long game time
Disadvantages: hard to get a hold of nowadays

...*Storyline* You play Banjo the bear and Kazzoie the Breegul, who go everywhere together (Kazooie lives in Banjo's backpack). Banjo's sister Tootie has been kidnapped by the evil witch Grunty, who is ugly but wants to steal Tootie's prettiness to make her a beautiful witch.

...in the game that help Banjo and Kazooie. Bottles the moles gives you advice and teaches you new moves, Mumbo Jumbo the Shaman turns you into animals etc. so that you can do certain things and Brentilda the witch tells you secrets about Grunty which help you later in the game.

Pokeminigame Stadium

Advantages: Mini Games
Disadvantages: Far too easy

I first started out with one the original Pokémon™ games, Blue, Red and Yellow on the Gameboy Colour! I was hooked from then on, the enjoyment of the game would never end. However, once games Silver & Gold were released with 100+ more Pokémon™ everything got slightly harder and the game seemed to last forever, including the capture of the 3 legendary dogs, which took what seemed like a lifetime to get. Admittedly, I used a game cartridge to get them. ...
...hours, including all the cups and gym leaders, which I found disappointing because I had to go and buy the game for Ł30! To balance out having to spend Ł30, the mini games compensated for it, which could keep anyone hooked for hours! Infact, me and a few friends decided to bring the game out not so long ago, and I never thought I would have so much fun playing a childs game after so many years again. My personal favourite mini games would have ...

Smash Hits

Advantages: Original and simple fighting system, unique levels for battle, multiplayer!
Disadvantages: Computer A.I. could be better, graphically rather average

*A review of Super Smash Bros. for N64.* An original fighting game where famous Nintendo and Hal Laboratory characters do battle! Mix it with Mario, fight as Fox, or pick Pikachu - but don't lose it with Luigi! When a character takes damage, instead of having a health bar decrease as in traditional fighting games, a percentage stat - which indicates the likeliness of being knocked out of the stage - increases. The game has weapon-use thrown in ...
...numbers - multi-player is where Super Smash Bros. comes into it's own. It was a reason why I wanted a Nintendo 64 so bad many summers ago. I admit that I am not much of a fighting game fan but I like playing this title. The game is fairly simple to play with a basic paper-rock-scissors mechanism in place, but having four characters doing battle works wonders. ...

More K.Lumsy Than K.Rool

Advantages: Nice graphics, huge environments, decent boss battles, long play time
Disadvantages: Camera and platform elements a bit sloppy, a collect-a-thon

*A review of Donkey Kong 64 for the N64 which primarily focuses on the single-player experience.* King K. Rool is on the verge of destroying the Kong Isle with his Blast-o-Matic, when it fails. Thankfully, his underlings have a plan in which they capture the Kongs and their Golden Bananas, so that if the Kongs escape they'll not do so without their bananas, hence buying them time to fix up the Blast-o-Matic. Cranky's right kids - the story is a ...
...Kazooie before, I didn't find Donkey Kong 64 to be as solid a title in areas. The camera-work did not feel as consistent, there is room for improvement in the draw distance and also, whilst the game is not a platforming-heavy title, there are showing signs of sloppiness when jumping at a corner of box-edge designs as the character can get caught in a struggle. Of note, the game requires the expansion pack. For an N64 game the textures are sharp and ...
