I think Golf Story and it's sequel, Sports Story, are supposed to be like it - never played them, but they seem relatively well received
Edit: also, I loved how you could pull your characters from the GBC game over to the N64 version. I think I had a super over leveled set when I was a super bored kid
That game was so good. I wish there were more RPGs like that one. Except the skill degradation system, fuck that noise.
