Beautiful collection. Whats with the empty cartridge boxes?

Coeus OP ,

They are placeholders for games I may buy in the future

Damn dude! Very nice

executive_chicken ,

Didn’t know that Episode I Racer had a blue cartridge 🤔

Coeus OP ,

It was a Limited Run Games release

Hard to tell towards the bottom but if you’ve got Worms Armageddon, it goes for quite a bit these days (I’ll never sell my copy though! Precious memories)

Coeus OP ,

That is not one I have. It is expensive!

skullone ,

Why is it so expensive?

kautau ,

Copies in good condition are rare. Seller’s market

Coeus OP ,

It came out later in the N64s life and didn’t sell well so there aren’t as many copies.

how bout a nickel and a firm handshake for it?

Coeus OP ,

I’ll consider it

eroc1990 ,

Wow, what a collection. Out of curiosity, do you back up the games you own in case the battery dies or something happens to the cartridges?

Coeus OP ,

I have ROM backups of the games but I’m not really concerned about the saves.

eroc1990 ,

Yeah. At that point you can just rely on save states.

Boiglenoight ,

That’s a nice collection! Just seeing that gives me so many feels.

Coeus OP ,

A lot of great memories

As a 40-year-old I, logically, understand that the N64 is pretty old now. But at the same time I am deeply offended this is how I learned about this Retro Gaming group

Coeus OP ,

I’m 36. It’s going to be ok.

EdibleFriend ,
@EdibleFriend@lemmy.world avatar

NO ITS NOT :(

skullone ,

You just made it worse ☹️

Wanna feel even older? the N64 launch date is almost as close to the moon landing date as it is to today… less than a year in difference

thracia ,

Still missing Mischief Makers or is it somewhere that I’m not seeing? That’s one of the best remaining games on the 64 that I’m not seeing here.

Coeus OP ,

I don’t have that one yet

Coeus OP ,

To rabbithole, I can’t reply to you for some reason I get an error but they are variants, either gray variants of a colored cartridge or players choice.

Eddie ,

Well, those empty parts aren’t going to fill themselves!

Real talk tho, very impressive. Hope you have a cool set up to play them with.

Coeus OP ,

I have my childhood N64 that I’ve reshelled and HDMI modded.

AlgonquinHawk ,

Is the HDMI mod just to allow it to play on modern TVs or does it also upscale?

Coeus OP ,

It’s the Pixel FX kit. It upscales directly from the video chip

Anything missing from the collection or is it complete?

Coeus OP ,

I’ve got a long way to go. I have just over 100 to go.

deadbolt ,

Only 100 to go is still pretty amazing. No harvest moon yet?

Coeus OP ,

Not yet

deadbolt ,

It’s my girlfriends favorite game and she made me zoom in and try to find it lol

Coeus OP ,

Nice!

Rabbithole ,

1/10 because Perfect Dark and Goldeneye don't have pride of place on the top shelf next to Majoras Mask. Epic fail move right there.

But also, why do you have so many identical copies of the same games? What's the point, or are they different region copies?

hungry_freaks_daddy ,

I had the same question. If I had to guess, I’d say they buy bundles of games often, where the bundle includes a game they already have but 4 games they also want. The price is right and the condition is good so why not? If a cart ever fails you have a backup right there. If the value goes up (likely) you can sell one of the copies down the line.

Edit: nvm, op replied here

kautau ,

Yeah it’s flea market strategy. If you try to buy one game, non-knowledgeable flea market seller thinks that game must be valuable, jacks the price up, puts it on display. But if you act like it’s just a box of old games, haggle them down on it like you just want some old games for your old system.

Oh! I saw this strategy in Toy Story 2!

Coeus OP ,

Yeah I couldn’t reply to the post. They are variants though. My extra cartridges are on the very bottom right shelf.
