If you have an Action Replay / Game Shark, there are codes that can allow
you to pass levels with ease and still get credit for them. I do not
recommend this except as a last resort. And since the game is 7 years old
now, I say there has been enough time to resort to it.

You might consider purchasing a US-version Nintendo 64 along with a
power-adapter that allows it to work, if necessary.

Alas hard to find in UK and expensive to ship, i get items from the US all
the time so have a a rough idea how much, TBH i only want to play Perfect
Dark, i never had a N64 at the time as i hated Mario what ever........i
liked the old SNES but the 3d and kart put me off.

I heard PD was the game to play before you dropped dead, and since my GF
found a girls # in my wallet i dont presume i have too long
left..........<G>

Too bad. As soon as they're in your wallet it's a slippery slope
anyway, so look on it as euthenasia )

Wait, the 3D put you off buying an N64 and yet you want to play Perfect
Dark. How very odd.

Also what "Kart", Mario Kart? It's not a compulsary purchase you know.

Power adaptor isn't needed for Yankee N64, They all work at the same voltage
as each other, you just plug your English one in & it will work fine
