Is there a list of all the promo tapes that Nintendo put out?
I've come across these ones while thrifting and I think I'm going to start hunting out more of them, but it would be nice to have a complete list of all that were released.

Lesse, aside from the ones you have (never seen the 1080 one before), I've got one for Pokemon, one for Star Fox, 64 and one for Majora's Mask.

Thanks for replying, I'll be on the lookout for those. I actually have 2 of the 1080 tapes, I think that's the first one I picked up.

Hmmm, I've never seen the 1080 tape either.
In addition to the ones mentioned, you're also missing Diddy Kong Racing.
Star Fox 64 is an absolute must, it's pure grade A cheese. Diddy Kong Racing attempts to go for the same, but it falls kind of flat. The Majora's Mask one is just a complete disappointment. It's way too short, and they don't even attempt to do anything creative with it.

The "Hot Newz 64" tape in the picture is the one with Donkey Kong 64 and Jet Force Gemini.
Oh, and if anyone is interested, I got spares of Donkey Kong Country, Hot Newz 64, and Diddy Kong Racing. I'd be more than happy to trade for ones I don't have. :)

They have one at a pawn shop right now with no price tags, but VHS are $1 for the exception of Disney. I didn't really have the urge to buy it but would be interesting to find someone uploading them to YouTube or something.

Would you be interested in trading the Diddy Kong Racing for a 1080?

Are you only looking for US Tapes? :P
If not, there are also a few german ones around. I got one for Donkey Kong and one about some 3rd Party Publisher, i *think* it was acclaim, but then I haven't seen that in 10 Years.

What games are on the Hot Newz tape that you have? Also is the Jet Force Gemini one you have a Hot Newz tape or is it specific for that game?

I doubt I'll be able to find any non-US tape in the wild around here but it's still interesting to see whats out there.
