Selling an N64, any Brits want it?
2010-04-13, 11:05 AM #1
I'm getting ready to clear some stuff out on ebay but I thought I'd send this around my social circles first. If I get a decent offer I won't bother listing it, we'll just sort out postage and payment between us. I'd rather not sell it off piecemeal. Here's what I've got:

Console (working, just tested it with each game)
Composite cable + SCART connector
Power brick
Four controllers (grey, blue, red, yellow)
1 Memory Card
Expansion Pack

The games:

  • Mario Kart 64
  • Goldeneye 007
  • Lylat Wars
  • Perfect Dark
  • The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
  • Conker's Bad Fur Day
  • Jet Force Gemini
  • Hybrid Heaven
  • Operation: Winback
  • Body Harvest
  • Banjo-Kazooie
  • International Superstar Soccer 64
  • International Superstar Soccer '98
  • WWF No Mercy*
  • WWF Attitude
  • Donkey Kong 64
  • Mario Party 64
  • Star Wars Episode 1: Racer
  • Silicon Valley
  • Pokémon Stadium
  • 007 The World Is Not Enough


* 2 copies, one of them has the memory bug

Not expecting much for it but if anyone wants it and is willing to pay postage make me an offer :)

Assuming they are all PAL? *sigh* I'd be all over this if it was NTSC

Is there even a diff on n64 anyway?

Yeah, all PAL. There was a difference with refresh rate or something if I remember correctly.

Bummer. Great list there.

Yeah, just been cleaning the dust off the top of the console and remembered how much time I spent with this. Way more than the GameCube, that's for sure.

Forgot it had the Expansion Pack inside as well, added that to the original post.

I never even bothered to own a Cube. Which paid off now that I own a Wii.

I still play my N64 from time to time. Mario Kart, Wayne Gretzkey's 3D Hockey, and some Rush 2.

Yea, games were insanely priced for the N64 back in the day. I remember a new copy of star wars game... er Shadow of the Empire? (with Dash Renandstimpy?) was going for 115$ CAN for a while

I didn't think they made component cables for the N64. Do you mean composite? Nevermind, I'm an idiot and didn't look into the SCART thing you mentioned.

You do have a good lineup of games there.

Holy crap! I remember seeing them here in the states for 50-60ish... I thought that was high.

Whoops! Yeah, that's the one I meant. It's a composite cable. Sorry for the confusion.

Now the quote looks weird. You were right the first time, it is a composite cable (white, yellow, red connectors). I just also have a separate SCART adapter.

Yeah, my bad. Mostly I wrote it thinking "oh you just have composite" and then I read up on SCART and saw it was basically a way to give your composite cable component functionality. So yes, you meant composite, but your adapter is still important. ;) Sorry for being confusing with my observation/edit.

My god, A used game store would charge over 300$ for that.

My N64 is borked but I wouldn't use it that much if I bought it.

Plus is has been SOILED BY YOUR SCOUSER HANDS.
nope.

I hadn't thought about checking with one of those, actually, but I doubt they'd go for that much. I know ebay isn't the be all and end all of second hand, but I've seen similar bundles going for around £100.

Yea console games got really pricey during the N64 era out here in Quebec. We're back down to 59.99$(Splinter Cell, God of War, FF13, etc.) or 69.99$(Mass Eff2, Fable 2, etc.) for new copies.

Too bad those are PAL because I would have bought a couple of those games off of you. I can't find my Goldeneye cartridge anymore and I hate playing it through the emulator on my Wii. :(

If this was earlier, like 6 months ago, totally would've bought it. Would've loved to have N64 here while studying abroad
