Here a question.

How long do people think the N64 has left to live?

With games like Perfect Dark, Zelda: The Continuing Sage, Turok 3, A Resident Evil game, Top Gear Rally 2, and a bunch of other wicked games this year. How long will the N64 live for? Specially with the PS2 and Dolphin on the horizon how much longer can the N64 last?

Oh I almost forgot. By the time playstation 2s are common place because they are not in the shops till after christmas the Dolphin will almost be upon us. But In the hype and run up to Ps2s arrival N64 games will go down in price in an attempt to sell as many as possible before PS2 comes out allowing us N64ers to pick up all the games we wanted cheap.

I think you fundamenally misunderstand the term loyal. Loyal means NOT defecting to the Nintendo's enemy.

Fogmasters Idea was a bit extreme but you could possibly look for a way to disable everyone elses internet service apart from yours and special reserves for oneday so you have to win. Perhaps you could ask for help from Dr Evil to help you execute your dastrardly scheme all though if his past performances in Austin Powers are anything to go by you will more than likely fail unless you threaten the world with a giant "laser". (Sorry I got a bit carried away). Oh well back to the Asylum.

Is the death of the N64 really a bad thimg , maybe it is in concept but in theory for N64 owners it might be a breath offresh air, think about it. For the last three years we have been pying upwards to £60 for new games. But if the N64 does eventually die out we should be able to get loads of great games for really cheap prices because retailers will be trying to sell them off.

I think the European release of the Playstation 2 will be a death sentence for the Nintendo 64 and even the playstation.
The Ps2 will be the centre of attention in the gaming world. The Playstation will begin to fade and those poor people who own one will begin to see a decline in the amount of qaulity games released.
However, with the Ps One, which will still play PS games, some developers will be caught up making games for all three consoles.
I think that many N64 owners, loyal to Nintendo, may swap to the Ps2, due to its excellent specs, and great line-up.
I believe that Nintendo will lose many-a-customer to the Ps2, due to their Dolphin taking ages to arrive.
The amount of games on the N64 will also falter, as many 2-way developers will leave it alone. But we will see many great games to come from Rare and Nintendo themselves.

It wasn't greed, the question came up while discussing my biscuit eating friend who didn't write since he won game a day.
If I were to find a game coming my way I certainly wouldn't complain, but I for one won't be trying your idea of killing everyone in the whole world for a free game.

Yeah but the only way you can win twice is if everyone dies....except for you, and you write a disscussion to yourself, and maybe you can pick the game up yourself? or maybe this won't happen, anyway don't be so greedy soup, winning one game should be enough for anyone.
