Getting discs in and out of the retro rack must be a pain.

Very jealous of the Gold N64 - how much did that run you?

it was 60 dollars with the three controllers, mario kart and mario party.

I sold mario kart and mario party for 40 on ebay :wink:

Almost all the N64's were acquired with games with value and then the games punted if I didnt have them. I spent the first six months of collecting - just looking for n64 + games.

Its my favourite console of all time.

Yeah my favorite system is still my genesis, it was my first and me and my friends spent lots of time playing games on it. But the n64 was the one me and all my friends had, and I remember spending lots and lots of time playing goldeneye, mario kart, smash bros, and mario party.

Impressive collection! However - looking at your fighting game collection for PS2, I'm not noticing King of Fighters XI or Neo Geo Battle Coliseum... I think you should correct that as soon as possible...

I also once thought about getting "The Guy Game", just because of the fact that it is a cheap rarity. In the end, I decided that I already have to much trouble affording games I actually want to play, so I ended up deciding against it. Maybe when I have more spending money...

There are two reasons that Perfect Dark hasn't aged as well as Goldeneye. The first is the framerate issues. The game was just a smidge too ambitious on the graphics even though it uses the RAM pack. The second is the game is a bit more complex than Goldeneye. You have the secondary fire and dizziness, both of which increase the complexity of multiplayer. Goldeneye was the model of simplicity, which helps it stay relevant as time goes on.

the7K, its already been rectified

The last week I have picked up the following fighters

Art of Fighting Anthology
Fatal Fury Battle Archives Vol 1
King Of Fighters XI
Neo Geo Battle Coliseum
World Heroes Anthology
Guilty Gear Isuka

I bought most of these of a website called inetvideo.com (except gulity gear) - they were all under ten bucks new - it was too tempting. Havent had any of them in yet. Saving them for the next time the gf is out of town.

I have to say, having The Guy Game and Bible Games in the same photo is hilarious!
