Saturn of Elemia Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 This was a FUN and BIZARRE game for the Nintendo 64 made by Enix and Treasure. A fun 2Dish game with an ending based on how many Gold Crystals you could find throughout the game. Sadly, this game isn't that well know - despite its hilarious antics and addicting gameplay. There really should be a remake of this - or at least a VC release on the Wii. If anyone has played this game, discuss all the fun and challenges of it. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleevecard Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I've never played it but I always heard it was one of the most under recognized games considering its level of genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturn of Elemia Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Indeed. How can you go wrong with a stage that requires you to return a tricycle to the king or the boss fight against the wolf warrior and his giant robot that you have to fight while riding a cat? Some stages were insanely short, though. Despite that, the game game was quite hilarious and the boss fights were, for the most part, unique.

TAG Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Hm...this sounds interesting. Care to enlighten me on this game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturn of Elemia Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Certainly. It was released for the Nintendo 64 in 1997. You play as the Ultra-Intergalactic-Cybot-G Marina Liteyears. You have the ability to grab objects/enemies and shake them for gems (which can heal you or give you money) or throw them - killing them and damaging anything in the way. The stages can get VERY wild, ranging from surviving a swarm of enemies to riding a tricycle to escape a monster to playing a game of dodgeball against a cat who claims to have been sent to destroy you - and everything in-between. It was one of the first and best 2D games for the Nintendo 64. The ending to the game depends on how many Gold Gems you find throughout the game - there is one in each stage and are 'usually' difficult to find and are out of the way. Also, there are MANY jokes and scenarios that will make you go WTF? If you can find it, I would HIGHLY recommend getting it. Sadly, there has been no remake of it.

ιϻϻσяταᴌ Ωϻεϛα Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I was only missing two gold stars from unlocking the true ending. One I forget which level, but the other was where you were flying pretty much the whole time trying to dodge other flying things and I think bees of some sort?

Saturn of Elemia Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 There's a hidden gem in the ending itself (where Teran runs at you; you can grab him and that gives you a Gold Gem). The hardest gem for me to get was in the 100M dash. It was MURDER to beat that in under 11 seconds... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ιϻϻσяταᴌ Ωϻεϛα Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Cool!LOL! I made my mom do that one for me, last time I played it was when I e3was around 7-8. it sure is addicting and fun! Last boss was hard at first but then got easy. BTW, yea grabbing his leg was the hardest thing to do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturn of Elemia Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I found that to be the easiest part. What was hard for me was when you had to fire the fist and he decided to move RIGHT when you fired it off. As for the other bosses, Merco and his robot were pretty hard. Taurus was mediocre (and what you had to do to beat the first form looked perverted). Lunar was just plain annoying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ιϻϻσяταᴌ Ωϻεϛα Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Yea Lunar, was just....yea. Anyways I forget what they're called but I like those things that kidnap that old guy in the intro! BTW have you ever seen the true ending? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturn of Elemia Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Yes, I have - and it was SO wrong (especially when you put your age as anything lower than 16). Professor Theo needs SERIOUS help... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Max Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Isn't that the game where the Professor screams "MARINA!" every so often. lol, that game showed some nice effects for the N64. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ιϻϻσяταᴌ Ωϻεϛα Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Hmmmmm. After all these I still haven't seen the true ending. 0.oI guess I could finally go watch it on youtube! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This game DID have some amazing effects for its time - and it still does. It's so funny how Theo never learns. First you save him, then he tries something - which makes you throw him halway across the planet. Afterwards, he falls for the same stupid capture attempt and you have to save him YET AGAIN!!! xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ιϻϻσяταᴌ Ωϻεϛα Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Yea, Theo's pretty hilarious! BTW I saw the true ending and yea....not what I expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW I saw the true ending and yea....not what I expected.[/quote'] Is that a good thing or a bad thing? When I saw the ending with 52 gems, I thought it was cute... When I saw the ending with 53 gems, I went "WTF? That's SO wrong!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death Metal Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Awesome game is awesome. I beat the game a couple time and still found it to be fun (although some bosses were a pain in the ass). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
