You bought the virtual console version of Goldeneye and Perfect Dark because you have fond memories of playing the carts on the N64 when you were young.

I bought the virtual console version of Goldeneye and Perfect Dark because I have never played them before and wanted to see what all the excitement was about.

We are the same, enjoying classic masterpieces of entertainment in our adulthood.

I am a ventworm from the nitrogen clouds of nebula-132, I loaded Perfect Dark into the meat computer in my belly and I enjoyed it immensely.

We are the same.

It’s hilarious because it’s the default control style now, but I remember trying Perfect Dark with the “2.1” controller setup where you used the center stalk on two N64 controllers (giving you a joystick for each thumb) and how hard it was to use initially. So different than the C aiming on Goldeneye.

I heard that there was a way to do this in GoldenEye too, but I had no idea back in the day.

Yes, plug a second controller into the N64 and switch the control style to Domino in the pause menu.

The sequel, Imperfect Dark is much narrower in thematic focus as you are just trying to blow up all the devices in your house that incessantly have leds on even when they are off.

I played Nightfire (?), with the x-ray glasses that showed that lady's lacy underwear.
