Ah robot tank. it is a really neat game that pushed the system to its limits. The gameplay might be dull compared to today's standard, but back then it was revolutionary.
Indeed. Another of my favorites is Battlezone.

Nope, already had such reference via emulators or at a friend's home. It was more for collectors purposes since many copies on Ebay go for $500. :P

I did try it, though, using a Sega Genesis turbo controller and scored 1488 O.O

I need to try N64 games with texture packs one day. I never got them to work before.

Also, I think my N64 is either broken or the cartridge slot is too dirty because it no longer appears to play any game D:

Oh that sucks. You should try to open the console and clean the slot.

Mmmh, thinking about it, it's the only thing I want to take selfies with it. I think, IMHO, selfies are very egocentric and narcissic. I like the dithering pattern from the GBC and how it gives a very good nostalgia factor (also LOLCAT).

Now I have to find a way to dump the pictures.
