Rare Jet Force Gemini N64 Nintendo Switch Online
Rare’s Jet Force Gemini, originally released for the N64 (1999), arrives on Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack in December. This third-person shooter follows three members of a galactic law enforcement team as they try to stop a horde of drones led by an insectoid called Mizar.



The single-player mode has players exploring a galaxy to save Tribals, a race of survivors who have been enslaved and imprisoned by Mizar. They’ll have to shoot large numbers of enemies while dodging their attacks, while the multiplayer mode lets 2-4 players compete in traditional deathmatch-style games. Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscribers will be able to enjoy both Jet Force Gemini and GoldenEye 007 on December 1st (or November 30 in Japan).


Those who remember playing this title in 1999 are probably familiar with its 80s video arcade-inspired gameplay, combined with mechanics from modern N64 titles like Super Metroid and Super Mario 64. This isn’t the first time that the game has been re-released, as in 2015, Jet Force Gemini also made its way to the Rare Replay video game compilation for Xbox One.

The Nissan Hyper Force Concept, developed together with the NISMO racing team, previews what future GT-R models could look like. Power comes from an all-solid-state battery that can generate up to 1,341hp (1,000kW) with precise and extreme acceleration, while Nissan’s e-4ORCE all-wheel control technology ensures exceptional handling at the track as well as on winding canyon roads.



Aesthetically, the Nissan Hyper Force combines sleek curves with a geometric design that reflects the performance underneath. The front / rear lights pay homage to Nissan’s high-performance cars and its dual-level rear diffuser optimally controls airflow. You can’t miss the lightweight forged carbon wheels or the butterfly doors either. Step into the cabin, and you’ll find two driving modes, “R” (racing) and “GT” (grand touring). The colors on the user interface changes according to the mode, with graphics created by Gran Turismo developer Polyphony Digital.
