    Owning a Nintendo 64 is a pretty big hurdle. Have you seen how much those fucking things cost now?!

        If you can manage to find a place that has one, they’re usually selling for $200+ now. I’m pretty sure I can get ebay chinese replicas for like $50 though, but there are some games they won’t play.

          The N64 had a $200 launch price, which is pretty much $400 now. So nobody is making money from holding onto their N64. Hrm, maybe I should pick one up.

      I regret selling mine when I was 17 cause I wanted to buy a paintball gun and gear. At the time, it was a great call cause I didn’t play any N64 games at the time, and I got to have a blast playing paintball with my friends.

      But man I wish I’d sold something else back then so I could still have my original N64 and games. Still got the ol’ NES and Sega Genesis at least.

    I remember the hype of getting chairs from the audience in this game!

    We rented this one a lot.

    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…

    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.
