Here I sit beside my Nintendo 64, as it cougths out it's last games, I will get the poor systems final games Tony Hawks 2, Paper Mario, Mario Party 3 and well that's about it.

At the start of this year I felt the N64 was still booming, Conker, Banjo, Excitebike, Star wars: Battle for Naboo and Pokemon stadium 2.

Yet when I heared Indiana Jones had been canned in this country I noticed even THQ who had kept the N64 alive for those extra six months at the start of this year had given up on this lost soul. Nintendo try (and succeed) to take are mind off our dying friend with the GBA but they like everyone know the the N64 is at death's door after producing (shock horror) a bad game in the form of Dr Mario, desperate to make the N64 seem more alive.

So there I sit beside the bed of my favourite console ever, waiting as the impending doom of the system grows ever closer. I think back to the days when I waited for Zelda Majora's Mask to come or Perfect Dark to finally get a release date.

But it was those breath taking games that made me love this system and although it's future is bleak it has set the groundwork for the Gamecube which will live in memory of its older brother. So there I sit not letting go of my contoller and I know that when this console can go on no more I won't be the only one to shed a tear.

I think that in about 20 years, the N64 will cost quite a lot to buy because it will be an antique.

when is tony hawks 2 coming out? its not till the end of this year is it? there arnt really that many games coming out during the summer either is there? Most of the late N64 games have just been pushed onto the Gamecube( dinosar planet,Resi evil,eternal darkness etc..) So it leaves us with only a few games for the last moments. I'm only really looking forward to paper mario and Tony hawks2.
