    Well, gotta say I don't remember this one. The only N64 promotional VHS I remember is the first one, where the guy is like torturing Mario, and the kids are like nooo, and they show Super Mario 64 in Action.

    In the past I have sold these on the forums for $2-$3 with the outer sleeve. I'm not sure if they go for more though.

    I think you are remembering the one for Star Fox 64. That video is a must-watch.

    They arn't worth but a few bucks tops.


    Also don't bump your thread in here like you did. It's on the first page, still at the top of that page and you felt the need to bump it three times in 30 minutes?
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    Like most of the N64 promo tapes, they can be amusing to watch, but not worth much - I'd say $1-3 tops. They were sent to Nintendo Power subscribers and you could also rent them at Blockbuster for free. There's some more info on the Diddy Kong Racing tape here.

    Also, if you thought some of the Wii advertising has been tacky, take a look at this:

    Check out the new N64 Rumble Pak. See how it feels to feel what you see.

    I agree with Digital Space: these usually sell for $1-3 (I got my Majora's Mask one for $3 a few months ago). If you ever see someone selling these for more than $5 than you should probably pass on them because they aren't worth that much(you can actually find people selling them on ebay for $20-40 each....and they stay with that seller for years at those prices).
