# Summary
Guide your pilot/aircraft through rings and stop on the landing pad for points. Apparently, this was one of *two* launch titles for the Nintendo 64 here in North America alongside [[Super Mario 64]]. Definitely seems like a 3D tech demo-y game in that context.
# Acquisition
I think it was bundle with some other garage sale games I got as a teen? I think it was with [[Pokémon Puzzle League]], [[Pokémon Snap]], and [[Superman - The New Superman Adventures|Superman 64]]?
