Well that reminds me of a funny story I heard actually. You may already know, but for the benefit of those who don't...

Ever annoyed how PS2 owner's go on about how well their console is selling worldwide, and Japan? Well there's a partial reason for that. When it was initially released, in Japan, they virtually all had faults and needed to be replaced. But these Japanese people had no warranty and couldn't get a replacement, forcing them to buy a new one and effectively doubling Japanese PS2 sales!

I just want to know why people still buy PS1's. Is it because they keep breaking at home? and people have to go out and get replacements?

I prefer Timesplitters 2, but that's another story. The N64 is still, and always will be a great console. It's just impractical for retailers to stock games for old consoles when the demand is so much higher for the new ones, though.

Perfect Dark is still the best multiplayer FPS on a Nintendo Console. It is just so fun, you get stats and everything!

The N64 is in my flat's kitchen. We play quite a bit - PD, Zeldas, THPS 2 mostly.

I bought timesplitters 2 thinking it'd replace perfect dark. Nope, still mostly PD for multiplayer. Might be because it colours the players by team in pd. We like simplicity :^)
