Dear Future Gamer
This week saw my local Blockbuster remove all their N64 products from the shelves and into the sale. I was told that Mario Golf will be the last title they'll be adding to the rental shelves and they'll stop renting N64 titles from January 2000, due to Sega's new arrival.
This coincides with WH Smith removing all their N64 titles from their shelves at my local branch to accommodate DVDs and Dreamcast.
Before you ask what Nintendo are doing about this and where the new games are, it's important to remember that there are only a finite number of shelves in the High Street and most shops simply cannot support an extra format.
With Dreamcast sales breaking all records, it's time to say goodbye to Nintendo 64.

FG:
It's certainly not going to help the N64's cause. Is this really the beginning of the end for the machine? What do you lot think? Thoughts to the usual address.
Got an opinion or a question? Write to me at andy.smith@futurenet.co.uk...
