I just noticed, in the last month or so the number of N64 games SR have has plummited. I make 73 now, I think.

You know what this means? Less new stock coming in, all the old titles, SR will be selling off their existing stock and getting no more copies in.

What happens next? Panic buying? A crazed rush to pick up those last copies before they sell out for good? Maybe not that far. While there's still demand for a game, I'm sure SR will stock it, but those that have been languishing in the lower end of the charts for a while will slip into the world of forgotten titles that clutter car boot sales, and soon enough all the N64 games will go that way. Eventually.
Nintendo, it was great while it lasted, but I for one am seriously thinking about getting round to buying all those greats that were always somewhere on the list of 'must buys', but the cash was never around. We have a long wait until GameCube. Unless you'll be deserting to Sony of Microsoft, or are happy with GBA, you'll need those games to bridge the big void that's coming our way.
Good luck in finding them before it's too late.

I didnt get all of the "must buy" games so at the moment i am on a mission trying to find them 2nd hand. There is quite a few to get and it should keep me going till Gamecube comes around. i will never turn to SONY! I might even try and have a break from console gaming for a while so that i am more excited when GC finally does come next spring. Intil then i'll just stick to Championship manager.

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
