About this game
A chemical spill somewhere in rural England has mutated an army of bees into deadly insects.
Led by their queen, they are out to destroy every living thing on the planet, including all insects that dare to stop them.

Only Buck Bumble, the only bee not to be turned evil by the ways of the queen, can save the world, and his fellow insects, from total destruction.
Using Buck's weapons, you must shoot down the many swarms of enemy bees, while staying above ground avoiding the hazards below.
At times you may have to land on the ground and attack on foot, while certain enemies can only be destroyed by certain weapons.
Also included is a handful of two-player split-screen modes, including Buzz Ball, a soccer-style game where each player controls a Bee while attempting to kick the slightly larger-than-the-bee ball into the other's goal.
About Nintendo 64
The Nintendo 64 (1996) stuck with cartridges after most competitors moved to CDs, trading longer load times for near-instant game access and durability that's held up well over nearly three decades. N64 cartridges are largely intact and functional today, and while common titles are affordable, several late-release and multiplayer-focused games with smaller print runs have become firmly established as valuable collector pieces.
Gamevaro tracks Buck Bumble for Nintendo 64 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Buck Bumble to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This N64 release dates back to 1998.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
