Retrospectively, GoldenEye 007 is considered an important game in the history of first-person shooters for demonstrating the viability of game consoles as platforms for the genre, and for signalling a transition from the then-standard Doom-like approach to a more realistic style. In 1998, it received the BAFTA Interactive Entertainment Games Award and four awards from the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences. The game was praised for its visuals, gameplay depth and variety, and multiplayer mode. Although the game faced low expectations from the gaming media, it received critical acclaim and sold more than eight million copies, making it the third- best-selling Nintendo 64 game. After two and a half years of development, GoldenEye 007 was released shortly before the release of the GoldenEye sequel Tomorrow Never Dies. It was primarily inspired by Sega's Virtua Cop before being redesigned as a free-roaming shooter.
The game includes a multiplayer mode in which up to four players can compete in several deathmatch scenarios via split-screen.ĭevelopment began in 1995 and was handled by an inexperienced team led by Martin Hollis, who had previously worked as a programmer on the coin-op version of Killer Instinct. Based on the 1995 James Bond film GoldenEye, it features a single-player campaign in which the player controls Secret Intelligence Service agent James Bond through a series of levels to prevent a criminal syndicate from using a satellite weapon against London to cause a global financial meltdown. I’ll do my best to remember to try this out (No promises, I have short-term loss lol) and report back.GoldenEye 007 is a 1997 first-person shooter developed by Rare and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 64. Once that is done I could simply map the right-stick on P1 to the mouse using xpadder and it would daisy-chain into the game.Īt the time I don’t think mouse support was as integrated as it is now… could be worth revisiting I think. Thinking about it now, I was trying to figure out a way to get the P2’s stick to map in RA to the mouse. After that it’s just a matter of button re-assignment in the quick menu of RA.
Then you’d have to find a way to register Player 2’s analogue stick to P1’s right-stick.
I haven’t revisited this topic in quite some time… but last I recall a proper dual stick setup would require the in-game controls be set to use 2 controllers. You can switch their placement, but you can’t alter how it reads your input. It’s kind of complex because in the standard layout side-stepping and look up/down are digital controls, while forward/back and turning are analog controls.
