I really like flying dragon 64
but yeah, almost every fighting game dev skipped n64

n64 could easily do vf, soul cal, doa and tekken.
with the c buttons n64 even had 6 face buttons, but no fucking capcom game.
i would have loved to see cps2/neogeo ports just to see if n64 could pull it off.

Flying Dragon's SD mode is kino.

This, the SD mode is the real meat of the game.

That title goes to the chibi mode in Flying Dragon

People usually don't like 3D fighters unless it's VF or Tekken.
I like Flying Dragon's SD mode though.

Eh, it's another of those Midway 3D fighters from the late 90s, I guess if you like X Men a lot.
IMO the most underrated of those 5th gen 3D fighters is Flying Dragon, especially because of the RPG mode.

Flying Dragon's SD mode is often mentioned.

What about the RPG mode in Flying Dragon?

If you mean 2D fighters, the N64 wouldn't have have problem doing them, but probably companies saw it as not worth the hassle, since fighting games were decreasing in popularity by the end of the 90s, as well as 2D games in general. Remember, releasing games for N64 was expensive due to carts. If companies were going to release on N64, might as well make it 3D.
Now, in terms of 3D, N64 had a bunch of fighting games, Dark Rift, War Gods, and many others, the problem with these is that the majority were bad, none of them were as good as Tekken 3, or Virtua Fighter 2, but that has more to do with developers, rather than the system. Saturn and PS1 also have their share of shitty 3D fighters, but people remember the good ones only.
There were some odd games that I think were actually good, like Flying Dragon's SD mode, but it's not a traditional fighting game, and it has light RPG elements.

?
SNES was the first system to receive a port of Street Fighter II. Anyway I'd say the world in general stopped caring about arcade gaming during 5th gen, it was the time of the FMVs and cinematic experiences actually getting mainstream after the failures of Mega CD or 3DO's FMV-based games.
I think arcade gaming never really died, most console/japanese games still have arcade DNA in them, and the fighting genre saw a renaissance with SF IV.

Flying Dragon's SD mode has very fun RPG mechanics.
Definitely one of the most underrated N64 titles.

is this the creator of the graphics plugin glide64 final?
that plug-in is mandatory for n64 emulation. I don't care about hd anything when it comes to n64, but here's hoping the final few games will be emulated correctly.

however I don't see the point for wanting money for this. I mean the guy already hit $700+ and the goal of $6000 is questionable. the n64 community is used to being screwed when it comes to money.
