Same for the consoles tho'.. a blank (gold) CD costs 79 uk pence.. 79p for
Sat & PS games.. just as cheap as pc softwarez..
N64 Romz can easily be downloaded from the net for nothing..
PC> And all the games that are out on consoles are, or will be on the PC.
A lot maybe, but not all..

Have you seen any of the N64 emu's running.. On a P200 w/32meg it runs at 9%
N64 speed.. The only game that works is pong.. (R Bubba hack together, not
a comercial cart..)
Same for the PS.. On the same spec PC the emulator runs at 51% proper PS
speed (Altho the coder of PSEmu has said that due to him having time off
work, he should be able to do a lot more coding & optimising & get it to 90%,
but I doubt it, not with a P200..)
The only Sat Emu I have is not finished so no games run yet.. :(
