Tigger’s Honey Hunt
This really should be “Tigger’s Hunny Hunt” to match the spelling used within the Winnie the Pooh franchise. This was made in as a cash-in to The Tigger Movie, without actually creating a tie-in game to the film. Here, Pooh wants a party…
Frogger 2 (Prototype)
Unlike earlier N64 prototypes of games that released on PlayStation, this is not a final or near-final build, but rather a very early version. This frogger plays just like the arcade version – move around avoiding obstacles moving across the screen. Here, you…
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
In terms of N64 Magazine, Kirby 64 is rather interesting in that it got two non-import reviews. They originally wrote a UK review ready for the September 2000 European release date, but at last minute it was delayed until June 2001, a year…

Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero
Traditional fighting games like Mortal Kombat aren’t platformers. In order to combine Mortal Kombat with a platformer, you’ll need to put in some serious work to bring out the strengths of both genres. Making B turn the character around does not solve any…
Mischief Makers
Mischief Makers is a 2D platformer from respected developers Treasure. It received glowing reviews for its originality, including a 90% from N64 magazine. Unfortunately, the game didn’t click with me, but I can definitely see why people would love it. Mischief Makers is…
