Have the Goemon games made it to Nintendo Online yet? I don’t remember which I’m of the games it was, but one was a 3D game more akin to Super Mario 64 and I wanted it so much - but this was in the day when PAL releases were literally years behind the US and Japan - or just never came out in general.

Love the Goemon games. Would love to see Konami do anything with this franchise, even if it's just a collection. Most of the games never left Japan, and some of those PS1 games are even hard to find ROMs of. Doubt they would bother translating them though. I'm really surprised the DS game never came over here considering the install base for quirky titles.

 

This game looks cool though.

The first one on N64, Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon, was like a mix between a 3D platformer and OOT (though it came out a whole year before this). It's a great game with a lot of charm, though the translation is terrible and a lot of it makes no sense, but it's still funny. The emulation is notoriously tricky for this game, and considering the issues Nintendo has had with their 1st party titles, not sure how well this game would fare. The sequel, Goemon's Great Adventure, is a 2.5D sidescroller closer to the SNES games. Another great game that is really well polished.
