THE BEST 2D GAME EVER!!!,
This review is from: Mischief Makers (N64) (Video Game)
This is the best 2D game ever!!! even though ive never managed to complete it, and the ending is still a mystery to me, but i will tell the story line as far as it goes:you are marina, a kind of half robotised human and you prof. gets kidnapped by clans.marina then has to go on an adventure to find the prof. seeing many evil things along the way. this is a really good game with loads of fun-to-do puzzles. you can also pick up weapons and use them against your enemys along with numerous attacks. you can also mix things together in a pot to get weapons. this is such a fun game... YOU'D BE CRAZY NOT TO GET IT!!!!

A one of a kind action/adventure game,
By jasenao - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mischief Makers (N64) (Video Game)
"Mischief Makers" is a one of a kind game, and that's one of the reasons it's a good game. Unlike most of the Nintendo 64 games, it's a 2D side-scroller, and a good one at that. You play as Marina, who is half robot, half human, and her mission is to rescue somebody she knows. You have to talk to some villagers who will give you tips along the way, while you try to pass all the levels and bosses. Marina's moves is what's really different about this game. You can shake some things in the game in order to get emeralds out of them, and to make some crucial objects appear. You collect emeralds in the game in order to have continues when you get a game over. Five worlds with eight levels each are what you must pass in "Mischief Makers." There are many different kinds of levels which you have to get past in order to beat the game. In some levels you just have to simply get to the end of it, there are maze-like levels, some are fast paced action levels, a few of them are like an RPG in which you have to do certain things in a certain order, and in some you just have to get past a mid-boss or main boss. There's even some levels where you have to compete against a computer player in such things as math or the Olympics. To pass a level you have to find a star and it will transport you out of the level. The bosses in the game are some of the most awesome and most difficult ever seen in a video game. They range from easy mini-bosses where you just have to throw or slam them against the ground to some very hard main bosses that do things such as throw missiles at you or try to give you a knuckle sandwich. To beat most of the bosses, you must grab them in a certain spot and throw them or smash them to the ground. The game will give you a hint as to where to grab them by making a beeping sound and showing you an arrow where the right spot is. "Mischief Makers" has some good graphics and backgrounds, the music is usually good, the control is tight, and it's a lot of fun. There's also something that will boost the replay value up after you beat the game. In every level, there is a hidden yellow emerald that you must find in order to see more of the ending of the game. The more yellow emeralds you find during the game, the more of the ending you get to see. I recommend anybody who has a Nintendo 64 to get "Mischief Makers," it might take you awhile to begin to like the game since it's a lot different from any other video game ever made, but it'll grow on you. 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful:

Mischeviously fun,
By DeRosset Myers "DeRo" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mischief Makers (N64) (Video Game)
I know I'm not supposed to make references to other reviews but I can't help noticing that at least two 12-year-old gamers think this game is horrible. Perhaps pre-teens are so in touch with 3D games that 2D games seem brittle, or maybe it's about taste.
In any case, I personally recommend Mischief Makers to any gamer who can tolerate mostly-two-dimensional side-scrollers. Not only does it have a female hero (okay so she's really a robot), it's also lots of fun with few complications. There is so much mindless humor, you might go boom. "Okay, whatever!" you ask? Right. Did I mention no struggling with camera angles? That's right: no clipping, no awkward views, and no blocky characters. The main character, one Ms. Sarina Lightyears, calls herself an Intergalactic Cybot G! Her creator, one Professor... oh, what's his name?! Anyway, Marina's father/creator has been kidnapped and now she must rescue him from his evil brother and a gang of so-called do-gooders. I don't see any reason not to play this game unless you hate girls or side-scrollers. Give it a girl... I mean whirl! You'll be glad you did! Okay, so I promised an updated review and I intend to deliver. I never promised the update would be any good, but here goes: When playing as Marina (which is usually the case except for the two-or-so levels you play as Clancer), you "attack" your enemies by grabbing and then throwing them. You can throw them in one of eight different directions, but it's usually a good idea to act like a school bully and shake them first to relieve them of any gems they may be carrying. You can shake and throw friendly characters too if you feel like being a jerk; they don't seem to care anyway. In fact, Marina likes to throw her creator every time she rescues him, but that's probably because he looks like he's about to cop a feel when he tells her how glad he is to see her. The music is also catchy. I don't think you'll like it, but I certainly do. It's sort of ... actually I'm not really sure what the hell it is. It's good though. You also get plenty of stages on a map screen you can play again as many times as you want. In fact you probably should play them more than once just to get the illusive yellow gems if you didn't get them the first time. I wanna say more, but the dogs are yapping at me. I'm still not finished here. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful:

A fun action/adventure with RPG elements...,

This review is from: Mischief Makers (N64) (Video Game)
WOW, this game is the best sidescroller on the N64! It kicks Yoshi's butt. First of all if your a anime fan youll like this game, the main character Marina is robot girl who is kind sorta like Sailor Moon. The levels are fun but sometimes youll wish the whole clanball puzzle thing wasnt so common throughout. Some of the levels (migen brawl, cerebus A) bring omething totally new to gaming, they are totally fun and even though the graphics are 2D youll be amazed. The gold gems are there for you to collect, and the more you collect the more of the ending you can see. Right now i have 43 gold gems (out of 50) and i hope to get them all but some are REALLY hard to get! This is a great N64 game and its way above alot of 64 games out there becasue of its quality, its top notch! Hopefully we will see Marina in some sort of sequel, someday...
