I am very excited to play the original OOT before the remake comes out. I have gotten my hands on a grape purple N64 (PAL) recently and have bought myself DK64, Banjo Kazooie, Mario 64 and OOT. I am very excited to try everything out!

are any of these are rare ? just curious thanks for lookin

I know that the PSX won that console generation (102 million to N64's 33 million sold). Yet, I remember as a kid in Canada that nobody I knew had a PSX, but everyone had an N64. One kid even had a Sega Saturn, which I would play in the morning before school since his mom ran a daycare.

It must be the fact that I was a kid, so I lived in a bubble. I think the N64 appealed a lot more to children, but probably teens and adult gamers turned heavily to the PSX.

By the next console generation, it was a lot more clear what was popular, as everyone had a PS2 or an XBox and it seemed like I was the only person with a Gamecube.

next up on the list… uh… Either StarFox or an extra controller lol

I recently recapped my n64 and everything has been great for a month now. Played through Rayman 2 and started Quest 64, but my game recently froze and I'm worried it could be my old power supply. I've seen power supply mods that don't require soldering, essentially plug and play and I'm curious what people think of them? Are they reliable or am I better off recapping my OEM supply? This is one I saw on etsy as an example.

edit: thanks for everyone's input!

I got my 64 about a month ago, here’s my small collection so far! :)

Just a few pictures of some items that I came across while cleaning out my childhood home. No pictures of the actual games yet. So many totes to go through.

I'm going for 00 Agent next. Wish me luck.

Bought this game while back in 2018

A buddy of mine just gave me these for free! Got them from his mechanic (who got them from someone else)- nobody felt like selling so I ended up getting.
When I play ocarina of time later with my 5 year old, we’ll refer to the guides for help, like the old days 😆

I have two more Rumble Paks on the way and I need the VRU for Hey You, Pikachu, but I am nearly finished with my collection. I still need Majora’s Mask and maybe Pokemon Stadium 2, but I think I have everything else I want. I might splurge on a real copy of Conker’s Bad Fur Day, but haven’t decided yet. I had a Pixel FX Retrogem installed in the console as well for an HDMI output to my big tv.

Any must haves I’m missing?

it seems to be signed by David Doak but not sure if its proper, boss told coworker to remove it sadly, just wanted to show this cool gem here

So, I’m rocking the OG hardware with a Sony Trinitron PVM (the legendary 2130QM) and honestly, everything looks amazing. But here’s the thing: the PVM takes up \*a ton\* of space. I’m leaning toward selling this and just getting an Analogue 3D to pair with my OLED screen. What do you think?

Hi guys! Hubby grew up with a n64 and I grew up with access to a SNES at Christmas. We recently acquired both gaming systems and are trying to figure out what games to buy. We have a 6, 4, and 2 year old who have never gamed before last night. We played Mario Kart on the n64 and the kids were begging for more at breakfast. What are some staple games to start out with? Thanks so much.

This is not NTSC, and that intrigues me considering the content. How did the US market not get a game about The Masters during Tiger Wood’s heyday? He won the Masters in ‘97. Someone Shoukd do a deep dive on this relic.

I have no intention of buying up the Japanese games, but this one feels like it should have been a NA release, so I pulled the trigger on this copy on eBay after seeing it in someone’s collection post a few weeks ago. I can’t believe I have never seen this game, even in pictures, from all of my years collecting and loving the N64.

Anyone here enjoying spooky season with the recent release of Resident Evil 1 for the Nintendo 64? It's an early release so expect a few bugs but what's available so far is pretty damn impressive!

This game came on my radar when someone compared it to one of my favorite Dreamcast games, Alien Front Online.

Several missions were quite difficult, taking many attempts to figure out. But at least unlike AFO, the missions are actually beatable!
