<h2>N64 games</h2>

So, Starfox Adventures (originally N64's Dinosaur planet) and Eternal Darkness (originally N64's Eternal Darkness) both have release dates of June 10 and 24 respectively.  Here we thought Nintendo's idea was to release things far apart so sales wouldn't interfere with each other, but here we have 2 biggies in the works for many years coming out weeks apart, after what will be a 5 month drought of Nintendo published GCN titles starting with Courtside (sequel to N64 sports series).

Animal Forest+ (port of N64's Animal Forest) is doing pretty good in Japan and it sounded like a US release would happen.  The latest release date mentionings said nothing of this game.  What happened?  Even if they don't think it'll be huge, this is FIVE MONTHS OF KOBE BRYANT.  Animal Leader (originally N64's Animal Leader) will hit Japan soon.  If anything, it has less of a chance of hitting the US than AF+.  It too, looks wacky great, even if I could do graphics that good.  And I'm not even kidding.

Wavebird (never had a thing to do with N64) will hit June 24 as well, for $39.95.  Nifty.  I assume it's been redesigned since its original bulky model, with a much larger controller and system plug-in that made access to the memory card slot a thing of the past.
