I'm currently debating if it's worth dropping $120 for pic related, a good looking used version. I might cave and get it.

why not just get a lime green 64, an expansion pack, and the game, and save like 60-70 bucks

One thing I didn't know before it was too late, the special edition N64s can't output S-Video, if that matters to you. At least the PAL ones, not 100% sure if that's also the case for NTSC.

Not always, but I've wanted a Wonderswan for a few years now. That said, every time I look at the library, I simply can't find anything that I want to play that isn't already on another platform or ungodly expensive.

Do any Wonderswan anons have recommendations for must plays and best SKU to get? If it passes the 5-game sniff test, I might fast-track a purchase.

It is true, sort of. Any N64 motherboard that is Copyright 2000 lacks the s-video components. Some of the special editions are like that. But not all.

I had a dream that I found a cache of those classic jewel-tone iMacs in a warehouse or something. Retro find dreams are the fucking worst. I didn't even know I wanted that and now I do. How can I stop seeing PVMs, Sega Neptunes and Sony Playstations in my dreams?

I got that for xmass when it came out plus a dk banana controller to go with it shit was swag as fuck

I sold it plus smash both zeldas and perfect dark and like 10 other games in 03 for 150$ at the pawn shop and bought a bass at said shop for an extra 25$

a few hours later I learned a 13 year old is legally not able to sell stuff to a pawnshop my mom was pretty pissed and tried to get it back but sadly the pawnshop never illegally bought a N64 off a minor

it was that day I learned never to trust/deal with niggers

PAL N64's don't output S-Video at all, as far as I know. All North American models support S-Video.

You might be getting it mixed up with RGB video. The earlier models in North America could have an amp installed to restore RGB output. The later special editions in North America are missing the functionality completely.

Anons, when I was a kid I rode in a coin op ride that was a Donkey Kong Country mine cart. Played the music too. This was at toys r us. Does anyone remember this? I've asked people my whole life and got no response.

I never paid attention to the specifics, but those things were common. A minecart shaped one makes sense, although I don't know how you can be sure it was DKC (you say the music was the same, but you were probably also a little kid and that is a very easy kind of memory to confuse).
I was never allowed to ride them because my parents thought they were low-class I guess.
