Maybe I wasn't the target demographic for this particular game, but even back then I didn't see a point to it.

I played this stupid game more than I'd like to admit. I see no reason to return to it however, I think the sequal is better in just about every way. Might start the N64 version just to hear some of the flute melodies for a shot of nostalgia.
