Should i buy them, or should i just pirate?It was mint condition, with all accesories at $40 at play and trade.

Also, is blast corps expensive?

I meant that they are $40 each...

What good games are there on the N64/DC? If they are avaliable on the VC, should i get the cartrige or the rom?

Both for $40? buy.

Buy a N64 no matter the cost. And if you're the kind of gamer that I am, who prefers actually holding the game in my hand than saving it onto a hard drive or something, I'd get the games as well. Way to many classics to make it well worth it.

If you really want one, you can find working N64s or Dreamcasts on eBay, often with bundled games, for much less than $40.

As for the rest of the OP's questions:

1) Don't pirate. It's illegal.

2) Blast Corps seems to go for about $2-$4 + shipping on eBay, so no, it's not expensive at all.

3) For the N64, most of the good games are FPSs or platformers, with the occasional good action-adventure (i.e. Zelda) or RPG (Ogre Battle 64) thrown in. For the Dreamcast, you really need to like quirky, genre-defying games like Jet Grind Radio, though there are a lot of more "traditional" games as well.

4) If I had a choice between N64 cartridge or VC, I'd pick the VC. N64 games on the VC are upscaled to 480p, meaning that they look sharper, and the colors look more fleshed-out.

i tried bidding on ebay but i keep loosing...

Anyway, what good games are there on the N64(besides SM64, which i have on VC)

Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time, Legend of Zelda - Majora's Mask, Super Smash Bros. , Goldeneye 007, Paper Mario, Kirby - Crystal Shards, Starfox 64, Pokémon Stadium I&II, Mario Kart, Yoshi's Story, F-Zero X, Mario Party 2, Mario Tennis, Pokémon Snap, Hey You Pikachu!, and countless others.

It would be worth the price to me.

Here is the way I have always looked at the cost of games and justifying their price.

$1 a 1/2hour or 25c a play, depending on weather the game is story driven or arcadey.

Thus if Legend of Zelda is $50 and I get 25 hours of play out of it. It's worth it.

When I was born most games in the arcade were 25cents a play. If I buy Galaga Legions for $10 and play it 40 times I got my moneys worth.

SO when buying a game just think to yourself when I buy this will I be able to get x amount of playtime out of it. It works for me. If you get 80 hours of playtime out of thew system I think you will have spent your money well.

Blast Corps isn't a GREAT game, but it is very fun. Its a good game. For me iot was like playing a Virtua Tonka Trucks or something. I really like mine.

NOOO!!! I keep getting outbid by 1 dollar on ebay... *cries*

man I could hook you with a 64 , 2 pads, all hook ups, Mario 64, and GoldenEye for that kind of money.
You should shop around

$40 is too expensive for those outdated consoles.
