When it comes down to platform city simulation building games the Actraiser series for the SNES instantly comes to mind. There were so many things about Actraiser 1 & 2 that made the game appealing including the graphics, gameplay along with the soundtrack which was composed by Yuzo Koshiro. Both the first and second Actraiser game was somewhat popular back in the early 90’s and it raises questions on why Quintet never decided to make an Actraiser III for the Nintendo 64 back in the mid to late 90’s. Its no secret that the Nintendo 64 was not too big on 2D titles and often featured 3D games between 1996 and 2000.

However, a sequel to Actraiser II could have definitely have worked on PS1 back in the mid to late 90’s. When it came down to 2D video games the PS1 was full of games that had great animation that you would never see on the N64. While the idea of having a 3D Actraiser game for the Nintendo 64 would have been pretty cool in theory it would not only be hard to pull off in practice but the finished product may have feel below the expectations of many people.
