Nintendo is making sure only the highest quality games get released. Unfortunately the wrath of Doom clones (which Goldeneye is NOT a part of) has been released to N64. Turok DH, Doom 64, Duke Nukem, etc. :\ but still the games that it does have out are all high quality, which is something I can't say about PSX. the machine is way more powerful. It'd be a tough decision for me which one to get tho, as I've got N64 already and I'm getting PSX in a few weeks.. FF7 is the shit, also all the other really awesome game "legends" like Megaman, Castlevania, etc. are on Playstation. (these are legends that started way back in the 8-bit Nintendo days) I say if the kid's into roleplaying games, get the playstation. and if not, well it's a really hard choice I reckon.:) __ __\ \ / /_\ \ \_____/ www.freq-div.home.ml.org
