a sad thing is so many FPS games die because they're multiplayer only and don't have bots for skirmish mode like Perfect Dark (2000) on the N64.
That game had 18 bot personalities, 5 are difficulty levels but others are like RocketSim that prefers explosives, or KazeSim that charges you w/o regard.

February 18 2000, NBA In The Zone 2000 was released on the N64 in the Americas!
This game remains one of the most expensive N64 sports titles due to a late system release and poor sales; partly due to press like NextGen #62 proclaiming it has "absolutely no redeeming features"

This super stylish fighter (and one of my personal favorites) also has a single player adventure mode where you collect items to level your fighter!
And it features characters from the popular Super Chinese series!

The Zelda remake graphics remind me of the jump from the N64 Banjo-Kazooie games to Nuts & Bolts.

comparing consoles is really funny, like, I get if it's the SNES and Genesis or PS3 and Xbox 360. But the N64 had less than 1/10th the games that the PS1 does. You're comparing a car to an 18-wheeler.

May 18 1999, Star Wars: Episode 1 Racer debuted on the N64 in the Americas!
The title weirdly lacks the term "pod" due to Ubisoft releasing POD: Planet Of Death in 1997, also a futuristic racer, two years prior to this game and owning a trademark for racing games with "pod" in the title!

I'm always bothered by the argument of they won't include Pokémon on NSO because of cloud saves and save states as if they have a complete inability to bend that rule and cannot make other apps if needed (remember N64 18+?)
It's not on NSO because TPC thinks Pokémon should be a paid game.
