A thoroughly reworked N64 port of the LucasArts adventure, and one of the pricier carts in the library.

This is the Nintendo 64 version of Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine, released only in North America on December 15, 2000. Factor 5 ported the PC game with a team of eight of its staff plus LucasArts artists, level designers and a programmer, over 19 months. The N64 version added lock-on targeting, improved lighting, camera and controls, and lets you assign items to three of the C buttons. Its music was partly new, by Chris Hulsbeck.

Reviews of the N64 version were generally favorable. IGN's Matt Casamassina found it one of the prettiest games on the system with the Expansion Pak. N64 Magazine called it a polished Tomb Raider, and Electronic Gaming Monthly's review praised a long, involving quest with minor control flaws.

How it was made

N64 version developed by Factor 5 with LucasArts and published by LucasArts.

“The controls have received a good overhaul since the PC version’s, and they work very smoothly—you’ll basically be Lara Croft with a whip. The N64’s twitchy analog stick causes some accuracy problems, but, overall, Machine provides perfect Indy-style adventure fun.”
— GamePro, January 2001

“The Infernal Machine doesn’t disappoint. Factor 5 has done a good job of adapting this former PC game’s control scheme to the N64.”
— Electronic Gaming Monthly, February 2001

“So there you have it. Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine is, at its core, a polished Tomb Raider. As such, it's never going to be as smooth or as compelling as Zelda, but if you're itching for some decent 3D platforming action, you can't really go wrong here.”
— N64 Magazine, June 2001

Before you buy

This is one of the pricier carts in the library when loose, so the fake risk is medium: ask for a photo of the circuit board, which is the reliable test, since a cart that boots proves nothing. Budget for an Expansion Pak, which unlocks the extra Solomon's Mines level. The manual says the Rumble Pak is supported but optional.
