Best Nintendo 64 Game From Every Year Of The Console’s Life
The Nintendo 64 is one of the most important consoles in gaming history. Here are the best games from every calendar year of its lifecycle.
That same Nintendo 64 controller will be put to good use with the release of Corn Kidz 64 on Friday, April 19. Corn Kidz 64 is a 3D platformer that takes clear inspiration from N64-era platformers like Banjo-Kazooie and Super Mario 64, complete with graphical options that allow players to recreate the experience of playing a 90s video game. Being able to play the game using the Nintendo 64 controller will really help complete the experience. Previously, the developers had warned fans that Nintendo 64 controller support wouldn’t be possible at launch, but it seems those issues have been ironed out, and the feature will be available from day one.
Corn Kidz 64 may just now be releasing for the Nintendo Switch on April 19, but the game is not an unknown quantity. In fact, Corn Kidz 64 has been available on Steam since last year, and it has proven to be quite popular on the platform. Corn Kidz 64’s user review scores on Steam have helped it secure an “Overwhelmingly Positive” rating, indicating that Nintendo Switch gamers nostalgic for the N64’s glory days are in for a treat.
