Remote mines are one of three types of mine found in GoldenEye, the other two being timed mines and proximity mines. Remote mines are arguably more useful than the other types of mines as they can be detonated at any time.

Detonator

The detonator is a weapon that always comes paired with the remote mine, pressing the fire button causes it to detonate any remote mines Bond has placed.

Notes

• Remote mines can be detonated at any time by pressing the A Button and B Button at the same time while the remote mines are the active weapon. This allows mines to be detonated much faster than switching to the detonator and can be a life saver (or ender) in Multiplayer. In the hands of a skilled player, this is arguably the deadliest explosive in the game.

• Only six remote mines can be detonated at a time. The behavior of any mines over this amount changes based on the version of the game being played:
  • US: Additional mines disappear without exploding.
  • European: Additional mines will automatically detonate in groups of six until none remain.
  • Japanese: Additional mines remain and must be detonated manually.
• The Three mines are based on the remote mine seen in the GoldenEye film.
• There is an Easter Egg in the level Bunker 1 (make sure to have the cheats all guns, invincible, and infinte ammo turned on) play the level on any difficulty and go thru killing all the guards and boris but make sure to destroy all the cameras but leave at least one alarm operational. now in the main room you will see 8 tv screens hanging from the ceiling throw a remote mine onto each of their screens then detonate them all at once now any thrown weapon or projectile explosive (rockets grenade launchers and tank) will hang in the air at the point where u let them go. one caveat though throwing knifes and rockets will get picked back up if u stand still after using them. so be sure to back away after you do. grenades, timed mines, and grenade launchers will go off given enough time but all other explosives must be shot. the throwing knifes dont do anything but are fun to use as a marksmanship challenge.

Online Multiplayer Strategies

note: these notes apply ONLY to the Wii version of goldeneye 007

• If you attach a remote trigger mine to your teammate, after he dies you can detonate it and hopefully blow up the enemy. note: the downside to this strategy is that the enemy may shoot the mine on your friend and blow your teammate up. however I am not sure if this works pulely because I have never put a remote mine on my teammate
• If you attach a remote trigger mine to an inconspicuous place on a Goldeneye console, when that console is being hacked by an opponent (which you will see on your HUD) you may detonate your mine with your smartphone therby killing the enemy and preventing him from completing his hack. (no downside, however enemy may destroy mine before hacking if s/he spots it)
• please add a suggestion for a strategy.
