I remember you commenting on Starcraft a while ago, and talking about how RTS does not appeal to you, but I'm not even sure than Warcraft II could run on a 486.

I only have one jack on my receiver specifically intended for a DVD system. I'm a little concerned about how I'm going to hook up the new gaming systems and still be able to use a DVD player. Are there switch boxes for digital components that will allow you to hook up many consoles to one input, much like I am using now for my current gaming (analog) systems? I don't believe I've seen anything like that in stores. If these boxes aren't available for digital systems, can digital consoles be linked together in some way so they can share the same digital input? There may be an obvious solution, and if this question sounds a little naive, I apologize. At the same time, I figure that many of you high-tech junkies out there know alot more about these things than the part-time guy working at Radio Shack:) Thanks, Terry [ To quit the n64 mailing list, send the message "unsubscribe n64" ] [ (without the quotes) to majordomo@xmission.com ] ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 10 Jul 1999 06:54:25 EDT From: TreyDX@aol.com Subject: Re: [N64] Dragon Warrior 3 In a message dated 7/10/99 1:18:42 AM Eastern Daylight Time, d.fentie@home.com writes: > IMHO Dragon Warrior III was the absolute greatest in the series.

Just how good is pokemon? Pokemon is an rpg, right? So how does it compare to Final fantasy series for gameboy and zelda or other rpgs. I own a blue version and I bought it a month ago since I was going to be on the plane for 6 hours, I thought I'll just play it on the plane trip. After that, I haven't touched the game again, just gave it to my cousins. 2. How old do you have to be to be able to play pokemon? Since pokemon is an rpg. I thought you have to be around 15 years old to play it. I see my little cousins 10-12 playing it and they own both the red and blue. 3. How old were you when you played your first rpg and what game was it? My first rpg was Dragon Warrior 1. Not sure if that's the right name, but it's by Enix. I think I was 15 then, and that game made me love rpgs. 4. What's your 3 favorite Color gb games? my 3 favorite are: hmm they seem to be all by nintendo 1. Super Mario Dx 2. Zelda Dx 3.

Has anyone read the news article at ign64 about Superman? I can't believe it, but it is becoming a huge seller. My biggest fear is that Titus will keep producing these sub-par games. Someone needs to just give them a big shake and tell them that their game is garbage. Has anyone else tried Superman or was I the only one stupid enough to waste my money on the rental?
