Don't worry I am not out to moan or have a go at you, or anything bad...but just between you and me, can you tell me, as soon as you know, if the OZ game works on your UK machine, I have never ventured out from under SR's wing, (Sad @ 17 I know) but if you could let me know I would very much appreciate it.

Thank You

If u mean Oz as in Australian, all ozi games will work- they have the same TV system (PAL). However, althought they get some beneifts such as limited editions (Gold Zelda) and slightly cheaper games (I think), they have it worse off than we do! For starters, ALL PAL terrirories are controlled from Sega/Nintendo/Sony's European hq, which means that they have 2 markets. One is densly populated and near to home... the other is thousands of miles away, and far less densly populated! So, they therefore delay games much more, and give poor service down there.

The best option by far is to import an chip. EG. Buy a DC, and get it chipped, so that it can play imports. You can now buy American games, which come out earlier. Although these are slightly more expensive to import, they come out earlier, and if u go to america (as I often do) then u can get them FAR cheaper, and all the games come out earlier there! Also, on of my fav things, is that u can import obscure japanese games that will never come out here! Fantastic!

Banjo-Tooie Yeah, I might pick it for gameaday but I don't know yet. I have Conker's BFD coming thanks to Gameaday but If I buy another game I might just chack it out...I didn't realise that they knock another 10% off the $96 making the game about £34 I thik that is quite good as that is thesame price and we pay here, I might have a look at the Gamecube prices when it comes out over there. But yeah thanks for that.

I can't get to the other N64 pages though I think the server is down or the links have broken!
