A darker Doom built for the N64
Midway released Doom 64 in 1997 under id Software's supervision, and it plays like classic Doom at a slower, moodier pace. The monsters were redrawn with new sprites, from Imps and Pinkies to Hell Knights and Mancubi, and a new enemy, the Nightmare Imp, is harder to spot as it moves in and out of view. Colored lighting throws deep shadows over the bases and hellish temples, and Aubrey Hodges' soundtrack swaps metal riffs for droning ambient sound. The campaign opens at the Staging Area and runs through a set of maps made just for this release.
The Unmaker and the demon keys
The standard arsenal is back, including the shotgun, super shotgun, chaingun, plasma rifle and BFG 9000, and the chainsaw now has twin blades. Doom 64 adds the Unmaker, a demonic laser weapon that fires a stream of beams. Three demon keys hidden in secret areas upgrade it, making it fire faster and spread its beams wider. Four difficulty settings cover everyone from first-timers to veterans, and progress can be picked up later with a password, so you can resume a campaign on any N64.
Checking a used Doom 64 cartridge
Doom 64 comes on a standard gray Nintendo 64 cartridge. On any pre-owned copy, check the label and the contacts along the bottom edge, since those show the most handling wear. The game uses a password system for progress, so there is no save file on the cartridge to worry about. This listing is for the cartridge itself, and a box, manual or Controller Pak is included only if the listing title says so.
Questions about this game
How does Doom 64 play on Nintendo 64?
It is a first-person shooter played with the N64 controller. You fight through bases and hellish temples, find keycards and hidden switches, and collect weapons like the Unmaker. It is single-player only, with passwords for picking up where you left off.
Will this cartridge work on my N64?
It plays on North American Nintendo 64 consoles. N64 games are region-locked, so it needs a North American system. It does not need an Expansion Pak, just the console and a standard controller.
Is this the same as the 2020 re-release?
No. The 2020 version is a later re-release for modern platforms that added a new chapter of levels. This listing is the original 1997 Nintendo 64 cartridge, with the campaign as it first shipped.
What is included?
The listing is for the Doom 64 cartridge itself. A box, manual or Controller Pak is included only if the listing title says so. No accessories are required to play, only an N64 console and a standard controller.
