Space Dynamites (J) is one of those N64 hidden gems that never made it outside Japan, and honestly? It’s a shame. You start off piloting this tiny, nimble ship through asteroid fields that actually feel dangerous—like, one wrong move and you’re space dust. The controls are tight, which helps when you’re dodging enemy fire while trying to line up a shot on some alien cruiser’s weak spot.

What really stands out is how chaotic it gets. One minute you’re weaving through floating debris, the next you’re in a full-blown dogfight with ships that actually try to outmaneuver you. The pixelated explosions are weirdly satisfying, and the soundtrack has that classic late-’90s synth vibe. It’s not just mindless shooting, either—some levels force you to think about positioning or conserving ammo, which keeps things interesting.

If you’re into retro space shooters with a bit of strategy, this one’s worth digging up.
