Fierce_LiNk Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 That's right folks, day 4 will see us take on the fighting genre on our beloved Nintendo 64-four-four-four. So, what will you be playing? Will it be Super Smash Bros? Will it be Killer Instinct Gold? Fighter's Destiny? I'll be playing WWF No Mercy. A true classic.
darksnowman Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Round One: Fight! Lol, I'll knock up some Killer Instinct Gold (best fighter to date!), Smash Bros. and No Mercy impressions too. K.I is still a regular for our gamez nightz (sponsored by Ubisoft, as you see...), so I'm still well versed in the way of the ultra combo. Don't mess with me.
Fierce_LiNk Posted June 30, 2008 Author Posted June 30, 2008 KI:G was great, but the SNES version is much, much better. Seriously, I think so.
darksnowman Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 K.I on the Snes is immense, you are right. But K.I Gold played on Ludicrous is immenser. Please say someone has Dual Heroes?? I want to see some impressions of it.
Coolness Bears Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Does Pokemon Stadium count? :p As they are kind of fighting....
Fierce_LiNk Posted June 30, 2008 Author Posted June 30, 2008 Does Pokemon Stadium count? :p As they are kind of fighting.... I've always thought it was more of a strategy...hmm.
Coolness Bears Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I've always thought it was more of a strategy...hmm. Fair enough. ^_______^ I'll do Super Smash Bros 64.
tapedeck Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Pokemon is fair game I woud say. I'll try and get Fighters Destiny done (and Smash).
Fierce_LiNk Posted June 30, 2008 Author Posted June 30, 2008 It's a tough one, that Pokemon. You'll probably get away with it. I'm going to boot up No Mercy in a second. I LOVE eet.
tapedeck Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Couldn't get enough of this when I had my N64. Loved the SNES original too. Listen. Do eet. Do eet.
Fierce_LiNk Posted June 30, 2008 Author Posted June 30, 2008 Haha, the music was awesome. She was great, but the best female character was definitely Kim Wu...in the looks department anyway. Orchid would probably kick her arse, mind.
nekunando Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 ..well.. since noone has taken it I guess I could play some Fighters Destiny for us tomorrow morning! Also, I have Mortal Kombat 4 if it needs looked at too ..The problem is that I am not really a fan of the genre (though Soul Calibur is the main exception ) so perhaps my opinions will not matter so much!
Fierce_LiNk Posted June 30, 2008 Author Posted June 30, 2008 Dude, play Mortal Kombat for us, too. Me particularly, I want to know what it's like.
nekunando Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I'm not sure I would be the best person to take it for a spin as I never really played it much and, to be honest, Mortal Kombat has always seemed Krap to me.. However, I can certainly give an impression from my perspective.. whether anyone agrees or not
Eenuh Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I might give Smash Bros a quick play tomorrow, seeing as it's the only fighting game I have. Unless Pokémon Stadium counts as well, then I can play that too. =)
Fierce_LiNk Posted June 30, 2008 Author Posted June 30, 2008 /Morientes/: They all count. Eeeeeeenoooooo: I think we've decided that PokeStadium does count, so give that a bash, too. I've never actually played it... Dear god, I've missed out on so much.

I've never actually played it... Dear god, I've missed out on so much. Haha! You're missing out man! I missed out on the classics as well though such as Perfect Dark and Lylat Wars. (and Banjo) I still need to catch up with some N64 greats too. Great I'm going to pull out my Red Version and stick it in the transfer pak and SHOW MY N64 MY POKEMANS!!! Also the Minigames on it are Ace! Nothing beats rattata run or Dig Dig Dig. And If I have time I'll also do Smash Bros 64!
tapedeck Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 To get you all in the mood I present this: When Nintendo advertising was "WACK"-YO!
Coolness Bears Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Tapedeck I love you! I forgot about that advert. It's got me uncontrollably laughing at the moment!
Fierce_LiNk Posted June 30, 2008 Author Posted June 30, 2008 Dude, post that in the article tomorrow! Hahahahaha.
mr_bogus Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Unfortunately since my original N64 got stolen in a burglary along with its 30-40 games, the only fighting game i seem to have replaced is Mace: The Dark Age, and that was thrown in as a freebie when i bought 3 or 4 other games off someone. Looking forward to reading the KI/MK impressions tho! lmao @ tapedeck's ad
Cube Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 I can only remember one fighting game I liked on the N64, and that's the one with the cow.
Fierce_LiNk Posted July 1, 2008 Author Posted July 1, 2008 I can only remember one fighting game I liked on the N64, and that's the one with the cow. ...what the hell is that?!
Cube Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 ...what the hell is that?! It seems that it's Fighters Destiny.
The Bard Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 To be fair, there weren't all that many great fighters for N64, but Smash totally made up for that. It was the most original fighter I'd seen for a long time, and pretty much the first that had a four player mode that worked perfectly. I think I'll dig my N64 out of the loft and give it a gander tonight .
