You won't be seing that.. if they chose 64MB, it's cause all the rest would
cost too much.. Your 128MB DD would cost neer 200$/game!  So it won't happen
I can assure you of that..
As for the Zelda 64DD, yeah, everyone or almost knows that.. they (nintendo)
were supposed to Launch Zelda 64 on the 64DD, and not make a N64 version, but
cause of Playstation Leading and the Katana, they had no choice, but to bring
a pretty good hit.. so they started working on the N64 version..
BTW, when they say the cheap disk, they mean the cheaper then cartridges, but
more expensive then CDs.. You are going to buy your Zelda 64 for around 89$
then buy the 64DD for around another 89$, then buy the Zelda 64DD add-on for
about anohter 79$! Wow, aren't you lucky there?
