Great article
I love my N64 and have a few consoles ready to go
I finished my full Pal Australian N64 game collection last year, all cib.
It took me over 10 years but it was a lot of fun meeting new collectors a d making new friends
I have them all secured away in glass cabinets ready to play and on display.
@BloodNinja The emulation is superb. I have both the original handheld and VS and can honestly say that they do an excellent job. If you love retro gaming you should definitely consider the Evercade systems.
Just picked up the Indie Heroes collection, have most of the collections released so far. Love both my VS and Handheld, great systems. Look forward to grabbing these too.
I tried to order this through Strictly Limited Games but they aren't shipping to Australia and to order it elsewhere puts it up to ridiculous amounts where I could buy a Switch instead. Not willing to pay that much for it sadly.
It really is criminal how Nintendo think it is fine to churn out so many Mario titles yet sit on titles like F Zero, Waverace and 1080.
Some of your fans want more than Mario in a kart to race thanks.
Nice!
You did real well.
Australia can be dear, new games usually cost me about $60 to $100, depending where I get it from.
Game Cube games can fetch high prices, not as bad as N64 though.
I also collect CIB N64 games and titles like Snowboard Kids 2, and StarCraft 64 can sell up to $1,300!
Paper Mario and Kirby 64 fetch up $600 and Conker BFD reaches high $400's.
Crazy prices, glad i got my copies for less than $100, the dearest I've paid is $140 for Kirby.
Great article, nice read.
I enjoy these behind the scenes tell all articles.
The rare Aussie version here sells for $150 to $250 on ebay!
Not the Euro version but the Aussie rated version with the G rating sticker on the front.
There are a lot of Euro versions on ebay here in Aus selling for the same price, the cheek!
Rare as hens teeth, as a collector I'm glad i kept mine in mint condition, like new.

Re: "Big News" Promised At Evercade's 2nd Anniversary Show
Love both my Evercade systems.
Look forward to hearing what big news they have in store for us.
Re: Review: Playdate - Picking Things Up Where The Game Boy Left Off?
I'm in group 2 and can't wait for this to arrive.
I also own both the handheld and home consoles of the Evercade.
I can understand why people don't get why someone would buy this but as a collector and retro gamer why wouldn't I?
Each to their own.
My 9ye old daughter can't wait to play this, she loves retro gaming thanks to my collection of 244+ N64 games .

Re: Intellivision Closes Amico Fundraising Ahead Of Schedule
Hopefully Blaze will step in and pick up Earthworm Jim 4 for the Evercade handheld and Vs home console since we have the Interplay collections.

Re: Feature: Take A Tour Of The UK's Most Incredible Retro Game Store
Amazing shop!
I'd love to go but it's a bit far from Australia.
Also, unfortunately I have more cib N64 games than they do.
