Neon Genesis Evangelion is a video game released for the Nintendo 64 video game console; it was based on the anime series of the same name and the related full feature animated film The End of Evangelion, which was released subsequently to the anime series. The video game was only released in Japan, No projects of international release have been carried out.
Unlike many video games based on anime, this game boasts high production values, such as use of original footage from the show, as well as the original voice actors. This is noteworthy not only due to the game being based on an anime, but also due to the fact that this game was made for the Nintendo 64, which, due to its cartridge media, rarely had prerendered video in games.
The game follows the storyline of the series to the letter, as each level is taken directly from an episode of the series, making it one of the most faithful anime-based video games ever made. Each level of the game plays out like its own mini-game, with instructions on controls given before the level begins. Half of the levels are side-scrolling, 3D fighting levels, with the player controlling an EVA, while the other half involve their own styles of play.
