Last year we got the cream of the N64's games from Perfect Dark to Majora's mask. Now we're seeing the end of the N64's life with only one or two major games to look forward to before developers stop and make games for the new cube.

And it's great news too. Because all those gamesthat we didn't have £40 spare for will now be cheap.

It's started already. Worms Armageddon at EB for £10 and Quake 2 for £10 with SR.

So what do we do now? Still argue against PS owners that the N64 is still alive?

Nope! We should fil this forum with messages saying that the N64 is worthless and obselete. Why?

Well this will happen...


In Tony's office, Ali bursts in.

Ali: No one likes the N64 anymore!

Tony: What?

Ali: All the forums are saying that it's worthless and obselete.

Tony: This is serious. I must tell the boss of SR.

Boss of SR's office. Tony enters.

Tony: It seems no one wants anything to do with the N64 anymore. It's all over our forums!

Boss: Darn! How are we going to get rid of all these games we have in stock? We shall have to sell them for no more than £10 to get rid of them.



So we'll be able to buy the likes of Dinosaur Planet for £10 and all those games we never got round to buying will be cheap!

Join the revolution. I want you all to say that the N64 is complete crap. Do it for cheap games!

Sorry, mister, but the N64 has got plenty of life in it until 2002, when PS2 will be crushed at the power of GameCube

Tom, do you want to pay £40 for each game or simply £10.

Diss the N64. Make it look obsolete! Do it for cheap games from SR!






(I know, it won't work but it was worth a try...)

Whoever said that the N64 has seen its days, they are talking total trash. Ive put a few of the games that I am looking forward to the most here.

Aidyn Chronicles: The First Mage.
I think this game is going to come out soon but I have no idea as it is not on any of the release schedules. The N64 has had a lack of proper RPG's and from what ive seen this is a proper one. It is turn based play rather than Zelda's high paced action. The visuals are great. Hope it gets to this country though.

Banjo-Tooie.
I have got this game and it is amazing. Its massive, the visuals are great and it is definately a great sequel to Banjo-Kazooie. If you own an N64 get it now(or when it comes out).

Mario Party 3.
This is the third in the series of Mario Party games and theres a new person - Waluigi. There are also lots more mini-games than ever, theres even a new host person. No matter how old you are the controls are as simply as the old ones.

Indiana Jones.
This game looks soooooooo good. I think it is the same as on the PC but I am not sure. The control system looks the same as on Zelda, with the C-buttons and the B-button attack. Not to be missed.

Star Wars: Battle For Naboo.
This is not going to be out for a long time here or in the US. The visuals are amazingly crisp and the way the fighter thingys look are stunning. Enough said.

Pokemon Stadium: Gold/Silver.
This an updated version of the original Pokemon Stadium. It has got the monsters from the new games as well as the new Crystal game. All the pokemons attack (ones in red/blue) have been updated and look better.

Paper Mario.
Another RPG turn-based play, the fighting is like that of the original Super Mario RPG. Its sort of half 2D and half 3D. Very Strange but good.

Excitebike 64.
A motorcross game, but set in lots of different enviroments and from the screen shots the visuals look amazing. We have to wait until June to get it in the UK, you could always import it from Australia.

Conker's Bad Fur Day.
Everyone has heard about this game. Absolutely stunning, the humor, the graphics. He is back, better than every, but this time he's drunk, he p****s on his enemys and vomits everywhere. This is such an amazing game, but the best news is that it is being released in the UK in April.

Eternal Darkness(US).
This is on such a big a big cart - 512 Mbits. Even better Silicon Knights are now a second party developer for Nintendo like Rare and Retro Studios.
I dont know much about this game as it is not coming out in the UK i dont think.

Sin and Punishment(Japan).
From screen shots and videos, the first level looks so good, but it gets even better graphically as you go through the game. Amazing game but it is only coming out in Japan so thats a bit of a shame.

There are many more games coming out on N64 this year. You never know we might get the two foreign games above.
There is lots more for the N64, dont diss it just yet.
