“While everyone is currently playing the new The Thousand-Year Door remake on Switch, I went back to play its Nintendo 64 predecessor thanks to Nintendo Switch Online. So, how well does the start of the Paper Mario franchise hold up?” - Martijn van Gent from Video Chums.
Extreme G and Iggy’s Reckin’ Balls added to the Nintendo 64 – Nintendo Switch Online classic game library.
What's great about this is that these titles were never previously discussed, they just sort of came out of left field. I loved the Extreme G series back in the day. They were just beneath Wipeout and FZero, but still really good.
If I remember the courses were good, but the gameplay just slightly beneath wipeout. Farro had the most speed but simple handling mechanics of double tap to dash slide / barge and boosters on track occasionally with the recharge health sections, but wipes out had full weapons, lock on missiles or rockets
Then with your cancel weapon pick up / trading a shield for a missile if you’re behind someone or trade the missile for the shield if you were in First, compared to extreme g which was more basic. I could be wrong tho. It was an awful long time ago.
On a similar note, I always wished starters pod racer had weapons. It would’ve been one of the best.
“There are many iconic platformers yet Kid Chameleon is rarely discussed so allow me to shine the spotlight on this retro treasure.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
It's time for Nintendo DS and GameCube to be added to the service.
And still no way of messaging. Watch em not add it to their next console.
