Damn thing keeps making cracking noises through the speakers and the games freeze after 15 minutes from power on...and I was getting set to enjoy Starfox and Turok too ;_;

Oh, fuck me

No, unless you are hot.

Fortunately, the N64 is the cheapest console in existance and can be had for the same price as a family dinner at Kentucky Fried Chicken.

 

[belgurdo]

Any way I can fix it? The console's green, and I don't a basic black one, nor do I want to traverse the city in the snow just for one special color

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

If all else fails, you could always switch out the interiors with a working N64.

Might try to clean the slot/cartridge.

 

[ToyMachine228]

Might try buying a Nintendo DS, because a lot of the best N64 titles will end up on it.

For only $5 more you could have had a dreamcast.

Never having a problem with my N64, I just bought a used copy and I got the same problems. I just took a q-tip and swabbed the connectors on the game which seemed to remove alot of black residue. Game works flawlessly now.

I ultimately had to tear a paper plate in half and scrape it along the inside of the console's connectors, since I had nothing else that could reach inside. Got a lot of crud out that way.

What DO people do with their machines when they sell them? Dump them in a mud pit?

Another must-have for N64 (at least imo) is San Francisco Rush.

 

[belgurdo]

Anyone know where I can get a cheap copy of Super Mario 64 (besides Ebay?) $22 at Gamespot is robbery

You'd be shocked at how the average dumbass treats their shit. That goes for everything from their car to their games.

Well living in Australia the prices may be a bit different but at my local “cash converters” which is a chain of pawn shops not many N64 games are above $10-15 AUD around $7+ US. Maybe you should try your countries equivalent.

Don’t expect game it always come boxed and manualed but you can get some good deals, I pop in regally to see what new NES games have come in.
