Comment on The fact that even 3D games are old now blows my mind on a regular basis.

A buddy of mine bought an N64 with Super Mario 64 and Pilotwings 64 on launch day. We didn’t know that it would sell out so quickly. He worked at a retail store and got into talking to a customer about him having the N64. Apparently the guy was a father that was desperate to get an N64 for his kid. He offered to pay 4x what my buddy paid at retail. It was a lot of money for a young guy in his late teens. He sold it to the guy out of his trunk the next day for the cash. It would be 6 months before inventory returned in stores and he was able to rebuy an N64.

I remember playing the Mario 64 demo in a kiosk at toys r us. I was blown away by it. I struggled to get Mario to walk in a straight line.
I was pretty young, but played tons of snes.
