That’s bizarre seeing a new N64 cart in a reproduction 1990’s Kenner Hasbro action figure blister pack.
Though the prices are nuts considering you can get an original cart for a fraction of that price…That said N64 prices are going sky high because of nostalgia. Racer and Shadows can go for well over $20 for carts only. Mario party, Mario 64, Goldeneye, Star Fox and Smash bros are cray cray prices.

I tried Racer revenge back in the day as a rental but remember it as being like super bombad racing: it felt like a generic racer with a SW skin on it.

I remember Clone Wars being pretty good on a friends xbox. The one I never got to was bounty Hunter and I need to fix that.

The good reviews for the Atari SW/ESB/ROTJ Arcade1Up are very nice to see. I’m amazed they were able to replicate the Atari controller. I’d love to try one out to see how it compares. Admittedly I’m spoiled in that my local arcade as a really good condition SW83 machine. Another farther out has a SW and ROTJ machine. I really hate the ROTJ game as it’s impossible and at that awful angle of play. I’d love to finally play ESB in person again-I haven’t played it since childhood in an arcade.
