cheap n64?
« on: August 10, 2007, 11:55:30 PM »
I'm looking for a n64 for like 10-15 bucks. I saw one once at a flea market and it came with the Pikachu game,a mic,a controller and all the hook ups but i was dumb and didnt buy it. So i really want one now :[[ help me?

They had some t this local pawn shop near me.  I'd suggest spending a day looking through pawn stores. I found a pawn store near me that had a basket with like 12 of them in it, $15 (canadain) each.  bt the problem is that the games are more expensive than the system XD, $15 for the 64 and $17 for mario 64

Look on craigslist.  I almost got an N64 and four games including Mario Kart for $25.  Mario Kart alone is worth $20.  The reason why I didn't get it, is because they said to show up at 6, so I did and they weren't there, so I left and came back in 15 minutes and someone was just leaving with it.

http://charleston.craigslist.org/tag/383840765.html

someone near me is selling one with 8 games and 2 controllers for $50, could probably talk them down to $25 if I wanted to. So Soccer's right.

as for ebay, good luck finding it for $10-$15 ... lol I mean if you chuck $10 more or so you can get some good ones.

if you want it now, which I think that's what you prefer, pawn shops are definitely the way to go, just find some crap around the house, go to the pawn shop, sell those, buy n64, go home happy :)

for those US residance, boot sale is more or less a large gathering of people trying to sell stuff sort of like a flee market or some sort of massive garage sale. dont think they have car boot sales in Canada/US though.

I didn't think they even distributed that thing! Dude they would have made so much money if they had followed through with that. Everyone was all over that whole Earthbound game alone. I would read the same magazine about it over and over at school, and it never did come out :(

Doesnt look like they're cheap though. i remember reading about these in mags too, but I never knew it was actually released either.

Id be up for trying it, but not be up for the price tag.  Geez its almost 500$ now,  I like video games but that just crazy. Wish I would of picked one up 10 odd years ago.

64DD emulation might be coming soon, they have figured out a way to dump the images.

I definitely would have gotten it 10 years ago like you said Skully. Definitely not worth my time now :(

I got an N64 and plenty of games I'd sell you, but it's not worth all the trouble to box it up and pay shipping just for $15.  I might as well keep it ;).
