Thanks for the quick replies! I would rather not buy a new/used console, but it seems that it's my only choice. The reason I think the console is dying is because the game doesn't always appear after a cassette it put in and the switch is turned on. If this happens, my son will take the game out, blow on the inside of the cassette, and try again. Sometime he will go through 5-10 iterations before he is successful.

Has anyone out there experienced such a problem with the N64? What can be done to fix it? Is it a simple maitenance issue or something like worn contacts that cannot be fixed?
