Well, ain't that a kick in the head?! I never win anything. I've wanted a copy of GoldenEye and I only collect complete games (which is kind of tough to do on N64 games) so I'm really stoked!

Can't wait to get home and watch the video.

Well, the spirit of the thing to me is to give it to someone who is going to play and enjoy it instead of put it on a shelf and look at it or sell it for profit. Cool idea to make the winner reveal a video with the game in the background. :D

Congrats Scooter!

I'm oddly a little relieved I didn't win because I have so many games it feels like there must be others more deserving.

I kinda wish I'd seen the video first! This is so cool. I do have lots of games, but this is not one I have and have been wanting. I'll be sure to post a responding video of me playing the game once it arrives.

I have an NTSC console, will I be able to play the game on my console? A previous owner "modified" the cart recepticle to eliminated the bumps that prevent non-US carts from being inserted, is that all that has to be done to play imports?

This is such a cool deal, thanks a ton.

This may just turn into a "pay it forward" kind of deal. Let's see what I could pass on.....

If it's an NTSC-J game, you should be ok. If it's PAL, you'll likely need a converter. I believe you can pick one up off Play-Asia.com. And you'll need a boot cart(Super Mario 64 will work) and a tv that can accept the input, which shouldn't be an issue if you've got a newer tv.

It's a Player's Choice NTSC-U cart. (I looked at the video, it has a T for Teen logo on it, PAL and JAP games don't use this rating system, they each use something else respectively)
