I picked up a copy recently for the novelty and also because you can do arbitrary code execution over the modem port, which I will absolutely use for shenanigans

in reply to @QuestForTori's post:
Older console shogi games are made by absolute freaks and I love them. Wasn't there one for the Super Famicom that they put a math coprocessor in so the computer's decisions didn't take hours to make and it ended up costing somewhere in the range of 14,000 yen?
There sure was, and even better, it was a 32-bit ARM chip running at a whopping 21 MHz!
"shogi n64 cart with modem port capable of ACE" is an absurdly powerful string of words
this is why cartridge games will always have a special place in my heart. see also gameboy camera, micromachines for megadrive (extra controller ports), pocket sonar (fish-finding sonar for gameboy. yes, really), kirby tilt & tumble (accelerometer), campho advance (gba cart with video camera and telephone cable link to allow voice & video chat over jp phonelines)... the list is endless
