Evangelion Portal

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.

This game is known for, in some ways, pushing the limits of the Nintendo 64's hardware, such as use of original footage from the show, as well as voice clips from the original series' seiyu.^{[citation needed]} This is noteworthy due to the fact that this game was made for the Nintendo 64, which, due to its cartridge media, rarely had full motion video in games.^{[citation needed]}

The game plays through the major battles from both the Evangelion series and End of Evangelion film. 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.

The game has 13 missions in which play through parts of the story. These missions also include the 13 major enemies of the series which are:

• Mission 1: Sachiel
• Mission 2: Shamshel
• Mission 3: Ramiel
• Mission 4: Jet Alone
• Mission 5: Israphel
• Mission 6: Sandalphon
• Mission 7: Sahaquiel
• Mission 8: Bardiel
• Mission 9: Zeruel
• Mission 10: Arael
• Mission 11: Tabris
• Mission 12: Military Forces/MP Evas
• Mission 13: MP Evas
