I was hoping to get this up and running before Christmas, but ran out of time.

We are giving our six Nintendo 64 pods, from the Special Reserve Shops, to Children's hospitals. So we need games to go with them.

Initially we are supporting the Wallace and Gromit Grand Appeal for the Bristol Children's Hospital.

http://www.grandappeal.org.uk

The pods are complete with large TV's, and should suit the hospital envoronment quite well.

If you would like to contribute any of your Nintendo 64 games please take them into a shop or send them to:

Tracey Davies
Grand Appeal
Special Reserve Shop
351 Gloucester Road
Bristol
BS7 8PG

Give your name etc and we will post a list of contributors at the shop and on the site (plus some piccies as we progress)

i am sending pk stadium and i hope they put it in the toddelers ward because any one older than maybe ten who can play this game for more than twenty minutes without realizing it is much, much worse than the hype says. i mean, it is 3d pokemon. that is all. cep't for the minni games wich are a bit pointless on your own. still, its colourful, and its got pokemon in it, so i am suesome brat in the hospital would like it.

good cause, well done SR.

Yep, probably not 18 rated games, but I'm sure they will be fine if the boxes are a bit tatty.

could they use cheat cartridges ??
i have an action reply one , still got the box and video , so if there are some budding code junkies that get injured they could use it , and learn how to use it by watching the video !
i'll never sell it so i'll get that in the post to you sometime this year ;-)


only kidding , i'll send it this week or the next. do i have to put it in the box as that will just clutter up the hospital , and will make postage more.

do you want a game stand , it can hold 6 games , and might come in usefull , ive got 2 so now ive only got about 5 of my favourite games left , i dont need the other one.

Just wonderin Tony, if they are for Kids hospitals, then you won't be wanting 15/18 games?

Actually, is there a closing date on this thing? All my game boxes are about a hundred miles away, for the forseeable future.
