Nintendo finally recognizes the most hardcore retro gaming sickos with Switch's latest N64 games, which you've probably never heard of

Hearken to this, my fellow retro gaming sickos: Nintendo is finally catering to our very unusual tastes with the latest updates to the Nintendo Switch Online retro game library. This time, we've gotten a pair of N64 games that I'd wager you've either never heard of or entirely forgotten up until this moment.

Extreme-G and Iggy's Reckin' Balls both hit the N64 library in the premium Expansion Pack tier of NSO earlier this week. They're both racing games, but while Extreme-G is a fairly straightforward sci-fi racer, Iggy's Reckin' Balls is a bizarre, grappling-hook-based racer with ball-like characters and tracks mostly made up of big towers to climb.

Neither of these are the sorts of titles that'd typically make a list of the best N64 games. They're not bad games by any stretch, but rather than defining the console they're more the sort of thing that you might have fond memories of renting for a weekend or pulling out of a bargain bin back in the day. You'll certainly find a lot of comments from people who did exactly that under the YouTube trailer for this release - hidden memories of pleasant games suddenly unlocking all these years later.

And while plenty of people remain annoyed that genuine classics like Super Smash Bros. have never been added to the service, games like these are what retro gaming is all about. Sure, people like me might've gotten into playing old games to experience the classics we missed the first time around, but I just bought a copy of Sony's bizarro PS2 racer Kinetica eBay. I might have a sickness, but the cure is more weird old games. In other words, you guys need to hop on Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg.

My next Metroidvania kick is an ingenious mix of Zelda-like exploration, twin-stick combat, and pitch-perfect controls – with 97% positive Steam user reviews
In a year overflowing with great-looking Metroidvanias, Minishoot' Adventures popped out to me for the sheer oddity and novelty of its premise. It's a top-down twin-stick shooter where you play as a small spaceship in a bright, colorful world under attack from a shadowy villain called the Unchosen. And I do mean you play as a spaceship, not someone piloting a spaceship, which really adds to the charm of the world. I've only played the opening act, but it's officially my next weekend game, because it's immediately clear why it's been so well-received on Steam, with over 1,500 97% positive user reviews at the time of writing.

Wait a minute, Bandai's latest anime game actually looks pretty good: a console and PC action-RPG city builder based on one of the best video gamey anime in years
I want to preface this by saying I have a certain fondness for Bandai Namco's anime video game adaptations. Sure, the studio pumps 'em out like Dairy Queen and chocolate soft serve on a hot Phoenix day, and yes, very few of them are objectively great games, but there's a consistency to the way it makes serviceable interactive versions of beloved anime stories that I find comforting. For example, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is a solid 3.5/5 that I happen to love simply because I love the source material, not because the game itself is anything special.
