GTG3000, do gaming w I miss manuals...

Always funny to me to be reminded that in some countries game came with manuals.

Here it was always just a cartridge/disk. Possibly the reason the most popular NES game was Battle City instead of Super Mario Bros.

Ha! Jokes on you, I’m not 38 until… next week. Guck!

(I meant to type “fuck” but “guck” works just as well.)

This honestly needs to be a lemmy insider only word. Replace all reference of fuck with guck going forward.

Guys will see this and say hell yeah.

But for real, don’t sell your games. Don’t be that guy in 20 years being like “remember n64?”

Son_of_dad,

I just got an emulator and play my n64 wrestling games on my tv through my pc

Auduras,

Mind elaborating on how?

Google n64 emulator and n64 roms? Pretty easy. I torrented all the games for nes,sega,snes,n64 few years ago and still have it somewhere. Havent played anything in some time

Indeed. Instead be that guy saying “Oh, man… I forgot to check the caps… the motherboard is absolutely corroded and ruined beyond repair!”

Just reminding you if you have any old consoles or other such old electronics. Remember the capacitors.

Yup, always like them before you plug it in to test for leakage /s

Lots of things stopping me from doing this:

  1. I am currently 36 years old, I will not be 38 at any time during the year 2024.
  2. I do not own a copy of Wrestlemania 2000.
  3. I finished my pizza rolls yesterday.
diffcalculus,

Sounds more like you’re not trying hard enough

I agree. He just needs to smoke a carton of cigs and drink a bottle of whiskey and he will feel older the next day for sure!

TwinTusks,

I also going to bed at 10:30

At least sometimes they double-side print the cover, this is just lazy.

WCW/NWO Revenge, or nothing.

PlainSimpleGarak,

Wrestlemania 2000 was cool and all, but WCW/NWO Revenge will always be my GOAT. I remember as a kid being hella impressed by the customization options.

I also owned WCW/NWO Thunder for PS1. Game was dog shit.

I resemble that remark.

Not having an N64 or a copy of that game stops me.

This and the other WWE games on N64 is why I went through so many controllers… A lot of them had you spinning the stick to get out of stuff and it would wear down the springs until the stick was worthlessly flaccid. 😩

ShaggySnacks,

the stick was worthlessly flaccid.

Sounds like the title of the world’s saddest sex tape.

Never understood the love for N64. That controller was an abomination.

Never understood the dislike for the controller. Have you ever used it?

@Stanley_Pain@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Yes, I hated it.

is this real? no way right?

echo64,

For like a decade yes

FarFarAway,

Sadly, yes. Got a switch for Xmas this year. Went and bought a mario game, and was completely taken aback when the inside of the case looked just like this. I sat there totally feeling this exact post.

Untitled goose game was surprisingly the last game I bought that had a case full of swag.

I think you mean "the alcohol cabinet is stocked and so are the retro games". Legend of Zelda, here I come.

Pretty sure a N64 can be emulated on a raspberry pi 5.

Granted it’s probably easier to get a N64 than a pi5… but still. For those folks that want to play… It’s possible.

Also I hear steam deck is a great way to emulate it…

Jerkface,

Hell, I get 60fps in 1080p on a Raspberry Pi 3b playing Mario Kart 64.

7u5k3n,

Haha that’s awesome! I didn’t know that!

Jerkface,

They were a really impressive little piece of kit. With no extra peripherals, I was able to play NES on one core, and use FFMPEG on the other three to encode and stream to Twitch with mono sound. For $35. Probably my favorite gadget of it’s time.

I don't think I can be 38 right now unless we want to really break physics. I wouldn't mind shaving a couple of years off, though.

And I'd have to use that weird-assed controller shudder.

That said, y'all have fun and enjoy it! :)

Taking turns playing Doom 64 while drinking Mtn Dew Code Red and eating Buncha Crunch. Everything was downhill after that.
