Default Does anyone collect N64 games these days?

I know that with the Virtual console that one of the systems is the N64 but still thare many games that are not released on virtual console making it qiute worthwhile to get a preowned if you wanted to .

While i got my N64 a few years ago for some preowneds before anything about the VC was annouced by nintendo & i got a 10 good games for it within the past few years .

The past 6 months i got 3 of the 2 of had there original boxes & instructions which is a double bonus .
I got them from 2 differnt shops one a Cash Converters The other a gametraders .
While gametraders are mor expensive of the 2 but still you mmight get a few good deals like $60.00au for pokémon Stadium 2 box & instructions included the only copy i seen since they were first released meaning its a rare find.

If it wasn't for the saved file allready on it i could have swon its brand new .


While Cash Converters on the other hand offers games between $10.00-$5.00 au compared that to the VCS $12.00 au basicaly a bargaing copared to GameTraders .

But im wondering if any of you still collect N64 game ?

I don't, but I've seen a pile of them in various classifieds. If I decided to start collecting (and had the expendable money) I could start up a half-decent collection pretty quickly.

In my area, It's hard to find them. I have thirty something 64 games now, but need more. All the stores that used to sell them were closed. There's one last store I know of.... I'll check there later.

Start checking yard sales and classifieds.

While the VC may get a few N64 games over the years, there's many I just think it won't. And so whenever I see those rare N64 games walking around a comic store or LAN center, I always pick them up.

To date I only have about 8 N64 games, but that's because I only buy the games I really like. Still looking for that elusive Mischief Makers and Jet Force Gemeni. Others like Pilot Wings and Blast Corps I can find nline easily, but I just don't feel like buying N64 games online. (Plus they're usually 20 dollars even for 'easy to find ones).

I still kick myself in the pants for not buying Mischief Makers back that one day about 3 years ago when I saw it at GameStop for TWENTY bucks. Then they stopped selling N64 games. So dumb.....

Is Mischief Makers really that expensive in the States? Coz here you don't get more than five Euros when trying to sell it...a COMPLETE copy, that is.

Anyhoo, I sometimes still buy N64 games, though I m sticking to the stuff we ll never see on the VC, namely Rare and licensed titles...

I recently picked up some cheap N64 carts, 5 for £5 in a bundle, among them were Wave Race 64 and Body Harvest and some others I didn't really want. At that price you can't not buy them.

I also recently bought a complete-boxed copy of Mischief Makers, which I think I'll start playing this evening. That was £5 I think.

I have a reasonable N64 collection of about 20 games, some good, some not-so good. I'm always on the look out for cheap N64 games although they're getting harder to find in shops now.

Don't you need 64DD to play Doubutsu no Mori?
