 Video game journalists from outlets such as GamesRadar and Nintendo World Report cited Mischief Makers as ripe for reissue either through the Nintendo eShop or in a sequel or franchise reboot . Retro Gamer placed the " masterpiece of mayhem " 80th on their list of " essential " Nintendo 64 games for its " unbridled quality " . In 2009 , GamesRadar called it " possibly the most underrated and widely ignored game on the N64 " . The website wrote that Mischief Makers was received poorly because players wanted 3D instead of 2D gameplay from Nintendo 64 games . Gamasutra 's John Harris added that those who gave it a " bum rap " missed a " surprisingly clever " game . UGO remembered the game as innovative , though imperfect , and asked to see Marina reinterpreted and resurrected in a new game .
