Jet Power Gemini launched on Nintendo 64 again in 1999. The sport was developed by Uncommon, which has all the time resulted in some weirdness for rereleases of the corporate’s software program ever because it was offered to Microsoft again in 2002. The Donkey Kong Nation trilogy was in seeming limbo for years over at Nintendo earlier than lastly changing into a mainstay within the firm’s varied on-line providers, however different titles from Uncommon’s N64-years of output have been principally lacking in motion.
The one exception to that has been the rerelease of Banjo-Kazooie. When that got here to Change On-line it was one thing of an occasion given BK is now a totally owned property of Microsoft. With the upcoming rerelease of Jet Power Gemini, it will appear that the businesses should not fairly carried out with their collaboration. Hopefully, we’ll finally see the likes of Donkey Kong 64, Diddy Kong Racing, and different N64 classics from Uncommon.
As soon as we’ve the discharge date, we’ll allow you to all know. Within the interim, tell us what you consider Jet Power Gemini making a comeback!
