Hello Shawn ! 
 NC>> I 'wrote off' the N64 as a viable system simply because its a
 NC>> Nintendo machine, Nintendo: home of the sickly sweet cute kids
 NC>> software. Censorship and being to damned expensive.
 NC>> PSX is much better, has cool music and CDs 
 NC>> AW> Don't you think that Nintendo is for a younger audience?
 SS> It is not for a young audience.  I think you are nuts.  What are you
Shawn. Just read will you ? Adam wrote that so if you want to make personal 
attacks, do so to him. 
Anyhow I agree totally on the subject, /with Adam/ !
 SS> saying that a great system can be soo childlish.  All the games I
 SS> know can be for anyone.  Mario 64 was not childlish and I hear my
I had a few goes on Mario, hmm, great, run around finding coins. What fun.
 Plus real dodgy hyper-anti-aliased graphics /in every game/. And a stupidly 
high price tag because of the 'we'll use silicon storage' decision. 
 SS> friend's mom played it, his dad and his brother.   All my friends who
 SS> are over 13 years old, still play Nintendo and they like n64.  Let
'Over 13', whats that then ? 14 ?  
The console/games buying majority are 18-35 in the UK the people with the 
most desposible income because the have real jobs, earning real money. i.e a 
really good market to cater for if you want to make a big wad of cash, which 
is what Sony are doing.
N64 is bombing, getting heavy discounts to try and get people to buy, but it 
ain't happening. People see the price of cartridges and then see the CDs for 
PSX and Saturn at least 10ukps less side by side. Which would /you/ buy ?
The games coming out now are fantastic, when I saw TOCA Touring Car the other 
day running on a PSX I was amazed, the graphics look like they're running on 
a Silicon Graphics machine, they are /that/ detailed and the framerate is so 
smooth. Then look on the other side of the shop and theres DKR on the Kiddy64 
running, what a joke ! Smudgy graphics, kiddy koloured graphics, naff 
cartridge sound and about 20 pounds more expensive !
 SS> see you say it in front of my friends.. What would they think?  Well
 SS> I think one of my friends would get angry.  I don't understand why.
Oh I'm /so/ scared. How old are you ? I'm 21 for gawd sake. I ain't scared of 
no-one. Death maybe, but people ? No way. 
 SS> Okay? Would kids play games like Turok or duke 64? Those are 2 too
 SS> violent for kids games.  I think you will understand.
I've never seen those two demoing in the shops, obvisously far to violent and 
full of blood/carnage to be on view of the general public ? Special 
'under-the-counter' editions eh ? I think not. Nintendo sanitized wholesome 
family entertainment. 
Not my 'scene' at all.
