Star Wars: Episode I Jedi Power Battles

Star Wars: Episode I Jedi Power Battles was a console game published for use with the Sony PlayStation and Sega Dreamcast in April of 2000. It inserted players into events in and during Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace from the perspective of one of five Episode I Jedi, such as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn, Mace Windu, Adi Gallia, and Plo Koon. Additionally there are number of secret characters that can be unlocked after completing the game such as Queen Amidala, Captain Panaka, and Darth Maul. The Dreamcast version also included the Jedi Ki-Adi Mundi. Players can play as Gungans and droidekas in unlockable mini-games. Anakin Skywalker appears as an NPC on Tatooine, Level 5.

Trivia

 * Curiously, Ki-Adi Mundi was not in the PlayStation version of Jedi Power Battles; however, his name still appeared in the credits.
 * If the player chooses to play as Queen Amidala during "Theed Palace", then she will not talk at all during the two cutscenes in the level.
 * Qui-Gon can, quite interestingly, defeat Darth Maul in the final level more easily than the other characters can.
 * Mace Windu holds a blue lightsaber, rather than his usual purple blade. This was because the game was made before Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones and that was when Mace revealed his purple lightsaber. According to canon, Mace Windu received Eeth Koth's blue lightsaber after the two performed the lightsaber ritual known as a concordance of fealty, explaining the present discrepancy.
 * Qui-Gon for some reason is alive after the Battle of Naboo.
