Will Manasol ever uncover the source of the stinking?

Same channel -- tonight, on Retro World III:

-Manasol discovers, much to his horror, that the source of the stinking smell is an insidious tracking device. His gaze lifts in numb shock from the splayed open N64 just moments before he hears a loud and insistent knocking on his door...

Will Batman be able to save Manasol from the stinky N64 in time??

The stinker is up there at the top of my closet, I am hoping dust will un-stink it until I can actually get a game. Those are some hilarious posts, :lol:

! SegaK2, that is a great rendition of my adventures in what I like to call, "Retro Acquisitions." A merger of me and my getting of goods.

Now I am in the process of getting games. I am going to try one more local. How much should I pay for let's say a;
Zelda 64
Body Harvest
Mario 64
Goldeneye 007
Starfox 64
A good spare controller
Rumble Pack

Oh, I hope it goes well and I don't end up on The Miami Herald.

Glad to hear you are still ok, Manasol

I'm definitelly no expert on N64 prices -- maybe check completed auctions on eBay to get a feel for ballpark range?

I've been able to pick up quite a few used (and covered with ugly stickers) at my local Gamestop for very reasonable prices.

Keep us posted on your Adventures and glad we could all share a few laughs on a Monday!

Depends on the condition they are in, but I've seen them for:

Zelda 64, Mario 64 - 5~10

Body Harvest - No clue

Goldeneye 007, Starfox 64 - 4~8

A good spare controller - 3~8

Rumble Pack - 2~6

Good luck on your next journey Manasol!

Glad to share a few morning laughs with all you guys

Well I found another local that is selling n64 games. He seems from emails to be a nice guy. He offered me any game from his collection for 5 bucks a piece. So that's exciting since I was a bit down from my last journey that I ended up at

Gamestop, yup Gamestop, looking for some old games. 12$ and up for a n64 game! Bologne, I went and spent the money on some "carne asada" and got to thinking.

This forum is great and it gives everyone the opportunity to express themselves. The distance apart is connected by internet. Yet it's also great if I could say, "Hey, uber29retroTransformersegatogamer lets meet up on friday at that food spot, I'll buy your games and we can relax."

Anyway I am going to purchase some games friday and I don't intend to even purchase a game if it's iffy this time. He can eat when he gets home, LOL. Strickly gaming transactions. He gets his simoleons and I pocket the pixel love.

here's a list

Titles include:
Zelda
Zelda majoras mask
NBA courtside
Ready to Rumble Boxing
Donky Kong 64
Turok
Banjo Kazoie
Kirby
Super smash Brothers
Yoshies story
Pokemon Snap
007
Pokemon Stadium
Didy Kong Racing
Tony Hawk
Paper Mario
Glober
NBA
NHL
Baseball
NASCAR
Golf
Star Wars
and many more
