The insect invasion has begun…
The galaxy is being infested by the evil Mizar and his horde of Drones. Already, the planet of Goldwood has been subjugated and the peaceful Tribals enslaved. With an arsenal of mega-weapons at their disposal, the Jet Force Gemini team must travel in search of Mizar’s lair—rescuing Tribals and splattering Drones along the way. But can Juno, Vela and their faithful dog, Lupus, exterminate the deadly threat before it’s too late?
Features:
- Decimate your enemy with weapons such as the Plasma Shotgun, Tri-Rocket Launcher, and heat-seeking Shuriken throwing star.
- Take on the bugs as a team when you play as Juno and Floyd the robot in the two-player Co-Op Mode.
- Do unto others… Blast your friends in four-player Battle Mode!
- Dazzling cinematic sequences add even more excitement to this already intense interstellar adventure!

Cool game, though I think it hasn't aged too well. But I'll definitely check it out on Switch.
I remember loving the game up until, if I remember correctly, you fight the bad guy in the middle of the game but its one of those staged partial battles where the bad guy escapes the battle. But then the game tells you that you literally have to save every single one of the innocent creature dudes in the game in order to like I think get the pieces to your ship to go chase after the bad guy. So the game made you 100% it in order to be able to get to the final boss and beat the game.
That was a TERRIBLE game design decision. 100%'ing a game should never be a required thing to beat the game. Some of those dudes were freakin hard to save so I think I just gave up on the game shortly after that cuz I had no interest in tediously trying to save every single guy in order to progress in the game. If Rare hadn't made that one horrible design decision the game probably would have been one of my favorites on N64.
OMG My mom loves this game. lol
This game would be even better if it was remade with better controls, and a more satisfying ending.
Really good. Still own it.
I recall this game! Very curious to revisit again.
YAY! Loved this game on N64. Hasn't aged great but IDGAF. Music is still awesome tho.
Oh wow, lots of good memories from this one!
Ooooh yes! Awesome game!
is nintendo online worth it?
Always had a bit of interest in this game. Glad to see that other games from Rares portfolio finds its way to the switch online. I thought Goldeneye was a one time thing between Nintendo and Microsoft. Would not think we will see Conkers Bad fur Day, but one can hope.
No good enough when it was released, even less reason to be exited now.
