The very first FIFA on Nintendo 64. Full 3D replaces sprites, a sea change for the era, and the official club licence brings real legitimacy. Stiff animations and occasional slowdown aside, there's a genuine ambition behind this transition that earns it real attention.

Is FIFA 64 still worth playing in 2026?

FIFA 64 inaugurates EA Sports' football franchise on Nintendo 64, with the official FIFA license and club management. The 3D modeling of players, then innovative on the machine, and the stadium atmosphere bring a likable cachet for the time. The stiff handling, limited AI and an at-times clumsy pace betray the series' first steps on this platform. For fans of retro football and FIFA series history, it is a historic starting point, mainly interesting as a witness to the genre's evolution.
