 SS> To all N64 fans...  The 64dd is coming this year and the price of
 SS> this new add-on will be cheap.  My friend told me it will be $79 with
 SS> a game I believe will be Earthbound.  The games will be cheaper than
 SS> the n64 games.  Plus the 64dd looks better than psx2.  Psx games
 SS> can't be rewriteable.  The 64dd can do that type of rewriteable.
 SS> Anybody who has heard more about the 64dd please write back!
i dont think it will be as cheap as $79, i was thinking more of 100, but
well see... ya the game is indeed earthbound (mother 3 in japan) and it
looks great... i also heard that the 64DD comes with a MODEM!  yes! and
that was mentioned by Miyamato himself so it cant be a rumor...  it comes
with a 4MB ram boost, giving the n64 a grand total of 8mb (more than any
other console on the market).. and the games will be really cheap, which
mean more 3rd party developers will make more games for n64.  the disks are
64MB, a long way from a CD's 650 MB, but cds cant be written on with
consoles.  some games coming out are SimCity64, Zelda64DD, F-Zero X 64DD,
the mario artist series, and lots of other promising titles... now the only
thing we have to worry about is if it will be released on time... and that
we still cant get FMV, becasue of the way the DD transfers data to the n64..
butother than that, it looks great
