Love this. Keep expecting Cranky to rise up into shot and shake his cane at us pesky viewers.

Do you remember loading up the N64 and seeing Pierce Brosnan as James Bond? Enjoy the theme from #Goldeneye! Thanks to @grantkirkhope.bsky.social for this awesome music, arranged by @spiral90210.bsky.social Introduced by the amazing @samanthabeart.bsky.social ♥️ #vgm 🎮🎧 youtu.be/1ZPR-i51S_I

If you've ever wanted to see how JFG gets speedran, hop in to Caneras' twitch!

Rare's Original N64 Shooter Could Be Inducted Into The 2025 World Video Game Hall Of Fame.

Cheers to 24 years of a clean-mouthed squirrel in a foul-mouthed world! Conker's Bad Fur Day was a technical feat in countless ways, pushing the Nintendo 64 to its limits. What's perhaps most impressive is that it was all pulled off entirely without the use of the 4MB Expansion Pak.

Bit of a long shot but if you don’t ask etc. I’ve been looking for the manual for the Japanese version of Perfect Dark for yonks. I have the cart and box but the manual eludes me. Original or repro; I don’t mind as long as it’s in good condition. Can anyone help me track one down please?
