Alright, I have a delema.  For quite a while now I've been wanting to get an other 64 because I was stupid enough to trade my old one in.  The only reason I haven't gotten one yet is that I feel once I have one, I won't play it very often what with my 360 and DS.  Anyway, what do you all think I should do?

No. I suggest just getting a better graphics card and an emulator.

Unless you have existing games that you would use for it, I would not get an N64.  I say this mainly due to the existence of N64 ROMs and working emulators and the fact that the Nintendo Wii launches near the end of the year.  However, if the only thing that you do not have is the system, and you can find one easily for a low cost, then I would get it.

Depends on what you can find available in terms of a working console, games and other hardware... and for what price.

I'd say around... $30 or so.... I think. *doesn't have a very good understanding of your strange, american currency*

I'd totally buy one for around $25. Around here you can typically find most used N64 games for around $10, though some of the rarer ones like Paper Mario and Ogre Battle will run you around $35. A lot of times when I have money and nothing to save it for, I'll just cruise to Rhino (local games shop) and buy a used 64 game for a few bucks.

So what! I wanna get out! 'Cos there's so much out there! So many different people, living different lives! Incredibly good guys, bad guys... Folks completely different from us! It's one huge melting pot! See, it's not about success, dying in the streets, who's better, who's not! I just want to be a part of it! I realized that even if I've no connections, no talent, even if I'm one big loser, I want to use my hands and feet to think and move, to shape my own life! We can just die here or we can try, see what we've got!

Well, you could always just buy so you can say that you have one.  :p  I finally bought one last year for $20 and I got Paper Mario for $25.

I've decided that I'm going to get one.  I understand that there are ROMs and things out there (I've got all the games that I desire already) but I want it just to say I have one.  Plus, its only $20 and the majority of games are less than 10 bucks.  Thanks for voting guys.  It really did help.

You should only get an N64 if you're not planning on getting a Wii. If you get an N64 I personally recommend the following games:

Banjo-Kazooie
Banjo-Tooie
BomberMan 64
BomberMan 64: The Second Attack
F-Zero X
Mario Kart 64
Paper Mario
Rampage: World Tour
Star Fox 64
Super Mario 64
Super Smash Bros.
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
