[QUOTE="KleinesSinchen, post: 9739618, member: 445180"] Good question. I've never seen a system behind this (or criteria) why, when and what goes nuts with the used prices. Some things/games become worthless junk, other things go to insane prices. (Mega Man NES/SNES, some Castlevania…) The only thing I can imagine is that the 4MB memory expansion is much rarer than the N64 consoles – but a really good thing to have for many games and mandatory for DK64, Majoras Mask and Perfect Dark. Supposedly you can theoretically solder 8MB RAM directly to the board. [SPOILER=Links] [MEDIA=reddit]n64/comments/49gs30[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=reddit]n64/comments/3gdcmp[/MEDIA] [URL]https://forums.nesdev.org/viewtopic.php?t=12517[/URL] No idea if this is true. Found no proof. If that works it will not be cheaper than an official Expansion Pack – and more work. Sounds cool though. [/SPOILER] Haven't searched: Are there any third-party replacements for the Expansion Pack? And if so, are they good and reliable? [/QUOTE]
