A skiing-and-snowboarding game that is now one of the priciest carts in the library.
Big Mountain 2000 is a winter-sports game from Imagineer that lets you ski as well as snowboard, which set it apart from the many N64 snowboarding games. It came out first in Japan in late 1998 as Snow Speeder, and reached North America in 2000, published there with SouthPeak Interactive. Kinuyo Yamashita is among the credited composers.
Electronic Gaming Monthly (January 2000) called it standard extreme winter-sports fare with licensed boards and gear and several play types, with skiing the one twist, and GameFan (August 2000) described three courses with licensed equipment and billed it as the first N64 game to combine skiing and snowboarding.
How it was made
Developed by Imagineer; the North American release was published by Imagineer with SouthPeak Interactive. Iku Mizutani, Hikaru Tamura and Kinuyo Yamashita are credited for the music.
What the press said at the time
“Imagineer bake a good cake — they just can't seem to ice it. Likably underwhelming, if that makes sense.”
Before you buy
This is the US release, and it sits among the dearest cartridges in the library on loose price, well above the median. Japanese Snow Speeder copies cost only a fraction of the US price, so the Japanese cart is the budget way to own the game. At this price the fake risk is medium: ask for a photo of the board, which is the reliable test, since a cart that boots proves nothing. Sealed copies cost many times the loose price, and a complete copy carries a large premium over loose.
