About this game

Flying Dragon is a side-view fighting game for Nintendo 64, released on December 18, 1997. It features eight selectable characters and two distinct play styles: SD and Virtual.

Game Modes

  • SD mode: Combines battles with role-playing elements, including treasures earned from victories and character growth. Its treasure box lets players review, buy, and trade items.
  • Virtual mode: Offers a more traditional battle-game format with circuit, tournament, and practice modes.

Both styles include circuit, tournament, and practice modes. Battles can also follow 2D rules inspired by 16-bit arcade games or 3D rules with a more realistic presentation.
