alt Hacker NewsI was excited to hear it was being rereleased on the Switch's online service. I tried to play it and couldn't get past the first level. Console FPSs have since developed pretty unified controls (with axis inversion really being the main option) that don't cleanly map onto the port. I couldn't get a familiar control scheme in GoldenEye and gave up after about 20 minutes of trying.

the control scheme only makes some sense if you use the 'triwing' n64 controller IMO. Even though you have access to enough buttons and sticks etc to make it 'work' on a more modern controller design, it's still not the same.

The XBLA port (that was never released) was leaked and runs well in Xenia.

It is also one of the few "remasters" that let you toggle the original graphics on the fly. (Mapped to R1 on the gamepad.)
