The PC version has 2 discs, 1 is the play disc, 1 is the install disc. You literally install the game off the install disc and have the Play disc in when you want to play. Diablo II has a similar setup, a lot of CD multi disc games do.
EDIT: You can do a full install and install both discs to the HDD, or do a smaller install where you only install half of the game and the music streams from the PLAY CD. It was a good option for when the game came out and HDD's were not as massive as they are today, but 1.4gb is nothing for a full install today.

Reminds me of some of my older CD based PC games. "Would you like to do a full install (500 mb required) or a space saving minimum install (50 mb). Hard to imagine being stuck with a sub-1 gb hdd again.

Most of their N64 games, all sports with Body Harvest thrown in also, are 6$ each. There are a handful that are slightly higher, like goldeneye here. I bought Ready To Rumble Boxing 2(don't know or wanna know if that's a good deal), almost got a wrestling title, becasue I heard 64 was good for those, but there were like, 9 different wrestling games, didn't know which to get.
If you are looking for a wrestling title on the N64 I would also highly recommend WWF No Mercy if it was one of the choices. One of the best wrestling games of all time in my opinion. I also enjoy WWF Wrestlemania 2000 and WCW/NWO Revenge on the N64 as well.

Those games still hold up - especially with the difficulty levels and adjustable handicap slider pre-match (if you max both out you get nice long back and forth affairs - tons of fun). Revenge will always be cursed with the ability to kick out of any pin with the analog stick though.
Why blank out the store name? Share the find source so others can help support the retro store!
Unfortunately its mostly a card shop, and they arent big into games, but they do keep a good stock, but i dont think they have a good idea of prices because some stuff is way overpriced while Hagane wasnt!
also, i once asked a peon why their games arent on their website, and they said they didnt want the competition to see the prices lol.
