Pac-Man in 3D may seem like a terrible idea, but it works well in this 3D platformer from Namco. Take our lovable yellow ball around multiple levels of platforming gameplay.
While combining contemporary platform game mechanics with traditional Pac-Man play principles, Pac-Man World 3 features Pac-Man staples including Power Pellets, Pac-Dots, Pac-Chains and fruit while adding new elements such as a Pactrometer, power-up smoothies and several new special moves. Players will even get to play as Pinky and Clyde, who each have distinctive special abilities.
Pac-Man World Rally puts players behind the wheel as Pac-Man or one of 14 other classic characters from the worlds of Pac-Man and other popular Namco franchises, racing for the checkered flag while using unique power-ups and items to prevent their opponents from claiming victory. Across the game's many colorful and iconic levels, players will utilize a unique power sliding mechanic that allows them to skid around tight corners without losing speed, while charging up Boost Bottles they can use at will to leave their opponents in their dust. And because it's Pac-Man, players can expect to see him do what he does best: gobble up his adversaries along with all the Pac-Dots in sight. Players will be able to collect Power Pellets during a race to unleash a special ability that will allow them to take a bite out of their opponents and turn the tables on even the most lopsided races.
Time passes, the pages turn...and a new chapter unfolds in an unfamiliar land! Get ready for a two-dimensional role-playing adventure for the ages, as Mario returns to paper form in pursuit of a threat unlike any he's ever faced.
Game based upon the Peter Jackson remake of the classic movie. It seeks to bring the "power, drama and emotion of the film" into an interactive medium.
Created by Nintendo's hero and all around demi-God, Shigeru Miyamoto, Pikmin is one of the few Real Time Strategy games ever to work well on a console. You are a space man that crash lands on a planet. You then force a bunch of plant aliens to help you get off. Despite this questionable ethical situation, it's a great game that helped the GCN out after launch.
Captain Olimar has returned to the planet where the Pikmin live, and he's all business this time! The company he works for is going bankrupt, so to save it, Olimar must salvage the treasure buried all over the planet. Luckily, Olimar brought an assistant, so they should be able to erase that debt in no time! Of course, they'll need the help of the Pikmin to do that. Alternate controlling the main characters - Olimar and his assistant - as you command your Pikmin to defeat enemies, propagate more Pikmin, collect precious doodads, and solve puzzles. With no time limit, new colors of Pikmin, and two-player cooperative play, Pikmin 2 improves on the original in every way.
Pitfall Harry is the only character-based, action-adventure game where players take the role of Pitfall Harry - the risk-taking explorer who laughs in the face of danger. Pitfall Harry includes favorite features from the earlier Pitfall game such as vine swinging, gaping chasms, crocodiles and scorpions, as well as all-new environments and adventuring gear.
Nintendo seems determined to be an absolute tease in the Pokemon home console department. Instead of getting a monster of an RPG for home consoles, we're getting organisational tools, camera games, and entire games based off the battling aspect of Pokemon. Well we're getting close to having the RPG we all want, but still no cigar- Pokemon Channel lets you explore the Pokemon world, but not battle.
In this innovative game, players can upload Pokémon from their Game Boy Advance games Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire, and battle against friends on their televisions through Nintendo GameCube. With a collection of arenas to choose from, players can enter their Pokémon in a tournament or battle it out in four-player multi-battles, making each experience unlike the last. Players also can join with a friend to combine strengths in new two-on-two battles and demonstrate their Pokémon prowess as a team.
