Yesterday, I thought "What the hell! I'm gonna have a go on Goldeneye!" Being a bit rusty i couldn't even beat Dam on 00Agent, but that's beyond the point. The point is I had so much fun playing my favourite FPS, for any console. I had a go on a few levels and went away, feeling as happy as ever.
Earlier today I was playing The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, desperately running about like a headless chicken, looking for the final big poe, as I already got the nine others (Any help welcome :-D), nevertheless, I was still having a huge amount of fun on one of my favourite RPG's out.
Then I realised, all this talk of the N64 being dead isn't true at all, the games are still classic and always will be. Then it struck me, it's like the SNES and NES. When you're playing your GameCube and you've sold your N64 about a year down the line you'll think "A game of Goldeneye would be so good right about now." This is what happened with the SNES and the NES. When I was playing on my SNES I sometimes thought "WHERE'S DUCK HUNT!!??" and when playing on my N64 I still thought "I miss you Link to the Past, Actraiser, Killer Instinct!" I maybe go off to a corner to cry or something, but the point I'm trying to get across is that when you think a console is 'Dead' it is merely having a rest.
The console is secretly biding it's time, ready to make you think "WHERE ARE YOU!?" or something else quite strange on that level. But consoles are more famous when there younger brothers take over. Let me put it like this. Say you sell your N64 to get some GameCube games, you don't think that you might want to play on those games again, but when you do go back for more, you realise you can't because that console in now. This show replay value in a game. Even today I want to play games like Yoshi's Island, Actraiser, Link to the Past and Killer Instinct.
So when you think and say the N64 is 'Dead' think about this, if your Grandma is dead, you bury her, but if she's sleeping do you bury her? Not unless you're very evil or very drunk. So think twice before selling your N64, I will, it's staying put in my house.
