"N64 isn't quite dead"

Did I hear someone say the N64 is dead? Smack, Bam, Wallop, crash. I hope that knocked some sense into you. The N64 isn’t quite dead because despite the ever shrinking release list and the lack of N64 games on shop shelves the N64 does what every console does when it is about to bite the bullet, drop in price.

I won’t say where but I picked up Pokémon Snap (did I hear a giggle) for £9.99! That’s even cheaper than Special Reserve’s amazing price. Also Diddy Kong Racing I found that for £6.99 again that’s stupid and these are high street prices! I saw Conker’s Bad Fur Day for a mere £34.99 and for a game that only came out a few months ago and retailed at £60 this is a big achievement.

So do you Nintendo fans have every game you ever wanted to get? There is many a game I wish I had such as Smash Brothers, Mario Golf, Mario Party, Rocket: Robots on wheels, Pilot wings, Rogue squadron, Pokémon Stadium 2, Blast Corps, Excite bike and many, many more.

Why I never go these games?

At the time I never had the money and by the time I did the next title came around and I got that instead. Now with only 2 not yet released titles that I really want (Tony Hawks 2 and Paper Mario and if Sin and Punishment gets a UK release that as well) I might as well keep my N64 alive by buying these classics.

The N64 created many classics in its years and now it relies on these classics to get through it’s last. So whilst you consider getting that Dreamcast or Playstation 2 in order to wait for the Gamecube I ask why? To a Nintendo fan the N64 is better than both of those consoles and as far as I’m concerned unless you are a millionaire you wouldn’t of got ever last N64 smash hit and, well it’s about time you snapped them up.

Dringo

Its the same with F Zero

MK64 is better than the SNES MK, its just that the SNES was the first of its kind so it was more of a classic. Single player mario is easy the computer does cheat but its still easy to beat.

Erm worked opposite with me I got MK on the SNES then MK64 and I thought MK 64 rocked!

But he is right DKR single i much better but Mazza karts Multi is much better.

the 64 version is more aimed at multiplayer gaming, by equaling out and helping the players in last place more. So the best player never wins.

i was sooooooo dissapinted with the first staduim game that i wont be going near this one.

I agree! I thought Mario Kart 64 was really crap! I couldn't believe all the fuss made about it! The original is still one of the best racing games ever made. At least it rewarded good driving; in 64 however well you drive you never seem to build up the lead you deserve. Very irritating....

begins with a w and has a ool after and ends with worths.

But that is all I can say.

PKMN stadium is avalible everywhere as i have seen it in EB, Game and the local computer retailer!

play mario kart on the snes, and then play mario kart64. u will see how much of a crap game mariokart64 is.

anyway it took me 6 months of on and off play to complete adventure 1 and 2 on DKR. the one player easily beats mario kart hands down.

Nah Diddy Kong is too slow,
