Nintendo should re-invent the N64

In my opinion the N64 was the vice of my early childhood... i loved it so much then and today its great fun and even the graphics are very bad by todays standard's the games where exelent fun wich exeeded in multiplayer.. i still own my n64 and i was thinking,it wouldbe Great if they made a new version with new And all the old games on it.

In my opinion to play games like banjo-kazooie/tooie and pokemon stadium(lol) it was very fun- would be great, nintendo realy made quality games with rare and all the other producers even the gamecube was very good but like anyone i was eagerly awating the wii ... it was fun at the start but it just wasnt any where near as good as the otehr consoles... the games just got boring and uninventive (not all)

Any1 else think that would be a good idea???

i think this would be a good idea but will never happen

Theres this system called the Wii with new versions of many N64 games. If your talking about cartridges then no that wont happen.

I think they kinda did with the DS...

A Nintendo 64 with a CD drive would have been interesting...Backbonesalsa

I wonder how much one of those are worth today? According to that wikipedia page only 1500 were sold. I'm gonna check Ebay

15 000, not 1500

LOL, your right. But still not very many

They made that with cartridges too.

It's called the DS.

It's even portable!

Banjo Kazooie, would not be on Nintendo. MS now owns rare. All the cool Rare games on N64 could not come out on Nintendo again unless it was a game featuring an icon that Nintendo owned like Star Fox or Donkey Kong. Banjo, Conker, the Jet Force Gemeni universe, and Killer Instinct would not come to Nintendo again.

Yeah i knew about that one, but it only used a strange electromagnetic disc that was not much different from the 500 m cartiridge, although it was much cheaper to produce.

What i meant was that i wanted to see an N64 with a real cd-drive... like the playstation. And seeing what it was already capable to do with with cartridges, it would have been intresting to see how it would have turned out wit a real CD drive.

Again, it's a nice thought and all, but we're talking about a console that's over 10 years old. People and times have moved on. That's just technology. I can see why you miss the era.. I miss the SNES era myself, but letting it go just makes room for bigger and better.

the n64 was great for multiplayer games...... the wii has got only a few good games and i think they have concentrated to much on the 'point the romote and the screen' factor of it. and they should focus on making better games... it was quite fun at the start but i think its spoilt it abit.

i think this would be a good idea but will never happen

there it is. you can end the thread now.

n64 was pretty much my childhood system

Id love if they did somthign with it again but I doubt they would,

Id love to play some of the old wcw/wwf games online, =P

Nintendo would probably make a great deal of money if they were to release a new model for their older systems, because people still do play them. But I think the closest thing to something like that were gonna get is the Virtual Console. Doesn't bother me too much though, I still have all of the old systems and a great deal of games.
