N64 failures!

Post by bacteria »

Two articles I found tonight in "Games Master" magazine from 1998. An interesting read I thought, especially as they didn't mount to anything. Look at the end of the second article about its comments on Sega and embarrassing mistakes - bet they ate their words later! :wink:

Those articles are so full of hope and optimism for soon-to-fail products that it makes me cringe! Great find.

I bought a large wedge of magazines a while back from a car boot sale for about 10p each; they were pretty well all N64 / PS1. Sure, if I find stuff like this on other systems too I will post as they are good retro articles; especially when the product was unreleased or failed.
