October 11 1999, Jet Force Gemini debuted on the N64 in the Americas! Rare initially were committed to using the Expansion Pak, but decided it was more important to give all N64 owners the same experience! Early boxes were printed as such and in many cases covered with a Rumble Pak sticker!

Doom II RPG (2009) is a turn-based RPG by Fountainhead Entertainment for mobile Android, Windows, and iOS devices. A year has passed since the events of the first game and a team heads to the Moon to investigate another strange incident. Surely, nothing can go wrong? (a Moon monsters thread)

Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei (1987) | action RPG | PC platforms | Telenet Aya Nishitani's sci-fi novel, Digital Devil Story, inspired two very different game adaptations. Atlus' took a more classic approach as a turn-based RPG, but Telenet went all in with a top-down dungeon crawler!

In the Mario Teaches Typing games, Mario never criticizes the player for underperforming and tries to be understanding and supportive. According to Charles Martinet, that was his initiative, as he felt being negative would go against the core principles of Mario's character.

In the Mario Teaches Typing games, even if the player does badly or underperforms compared to previous attempts, Mario will try to be understanding instead of critical:
Uh-oh, that wasn't quite as fast as the last time.
Hmm, are your fingers getting tired? Mine would be by now... if I had any. (laughs)
Charles Martinet, speaking at TooManyGames Convention 2021:
I got this marvelous opportunity to do Mario Teaches Typing. And when I got the script and I'm in the studio - I'm reading the script for the first time, there were things like "You failed!"
"That wasn't very good." "That was much worse... that was bad."
And I was reading that and I said, "Do you mind if I just, like, play with these words a little bit and just change them around?" because, you know, I never say "no" and I never say anything negative as Mario... and the producer graciously said "Sure, go for it!"
And so it became "Oh, that was good, but I know you can do even better!" "Oh, nice one but let's try again!" so it was always uplifting and always trying to be positive. And I think that that is the essence of the character to me - it's that love and that joy.

For what it's worth I've always liked Quest 64, even have the players guide. It's absolutely not the worst N64 game out there and more people should give it a chance.

October 4 1997, Star Fox 64 debuted on the N64 in PAL territories as Lylat Wars! Besides the title change, the PAL version contains an option to not only change the language but also to change the speech to Lylat, which sounds a lot like Animal Crossing Animalese...but is actually just nonsense!

This arrived yesterday from an eBay seller. A version of the "Pac-Man Fever" 45 from the U.K. in a picture sleeve. I'VE NEVER SEEN THIS SLEEVE BEFORE. As far as Google and Discogs are concerned, THIS DOESN'T EXIST! If you can prove otherwise, please do.

Pretty standard "Pac-Man Fever" screen photo, except the title text is white instead of yellow. And the "Buckner & Garcia" is placed differently than any other I've seen (IIRC). Someone marked it "31689," presumably for some sort of tracking.

It goes off the rails on the back. Most of the sleeve reproduces the "Life in Mazeland" section of the Atari 2600 game manual.

The white label version of the U.K. single with a giant, orange A on it. I presume to tell you this is side A. It also has "31689" written on it.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii contains unused Hint Movies where the players play badly and then die. While these were likely recorded before the levels were changed so the inputs don't match up, it is humorous to imagine them being actual intentional hints on what not to do.

Keep hoping for a port/remaster/sequel to this game, even settle for a spiritual successor. Definitely a hidden gem on the N64 that should've gotten more recognition back in the day.
