somehow skipped this entirely growing up, i think the n64 really was primarily a mario 64 machine for me as a kid. finally played via the XBLA release and had a good time despite it being so rough mechanically. also felt like the last few levels were mostly unfun to play despite being good conceptually. all in all, glad i filled this hole in my backlog, but i don't think it did much for me.

loved kazooie's dialogue though, what a good piece of shit character
