input ="Robotron 64" is a
1998 video game for theNintendo 64 .As the name implies, it is a remake of "
Robotron 2084 " (a classicarcade game made famous for its unique dualjoystick control scheme). The game features3D graphics which the original "Robotron" lacked. Actually to be more precise, "Robotron 64" is actually a port of an updated version of "Robotron" called "Robotron X ". "Robotron X" was originally released for the PC andPlayStation in late1996 , and is essentially the same game as "Robotron 64".The player is a
scientist trapped in another dimension trying to save the last human family. The player's character is actually amutant with powers which allow him to defeat evilrobot s trying to kill all humans.The original "Robotron" was noted for its novel two joystick control scheme (one stick moved the character while the other aimed and fired the weapon). This stays intact in the N64 version. The player can eithier play the game with two controllers and use the second controller to shoot, or the user may play with one controller using the C-buttons in the place of a second controller.
The game is also known for its high-energy rave style soundtrack, consisting of
electronica andtechno style music.External links
