"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.

yep theres three mario partys there all the same game just with better graphics and a few new mini games, not exactly the most inspirational series of games but what the heck.

There's a Mario party 2?

Oh yeah and theres also Pokemone stadium 2 if thats isnt released then i will eat my helmet (okay that sounded a bit weird)

I odnt care im still pickin up bargains for the 64, oh and Paper Mario will be released in the UK along with Mario Party 3

Um, the price has dropped BECAUSE the console is dead.

Shops are clearing their stock, and selling these things at a loss.

I doubt that any more games will be released for the N64 here.

Super Mario RPG wasn't released on the SNES here, so why release it's N64 sequel?

I doubt Nintendo can be bothered.

I'm talking about 64 games you aint got all the ones you wanted definatly well whats stopping you now the price has dropped!

yeah okay, hang on what are we talkin about anyway i cant even remember how this started anyway forget it, were startin to chat crap now.

yes, but i've bought all the new games. Conker, Banjo tooie and EXcitebike64 were my most recent buys.

nahh hes sayin it aint dead and there are classics stil available hes not just talkin about the old games, hes talkin about conker etcs,

i clocked 1080. i couldnt get any better at it.

anyway, dringos whole argument is about buying all the old classics to keep your 64 alive.
