I also thought this meant the N64 in general, since it's my favorite console, and was my first. I still play it today.
But, something never truly dies, especially game consoles. Even as they get older and the quantities become thinner, there is still emulation. Fortunately, Nintendo knows that fans like to enjoy old games they made, so they don't care about emulation of consoles like the N64 and under. Well, it's impossible to track everyone who does emulate anyway. But I usually only use emulation for cheats to avoid damaging my real games. With emulation, you can just go crazy with cheats and glitches and not have to worry.
I know how you feel, though. My original one died about six years ago. The last game I ever played on it was Bomberman Hero, I even remember the level I was playing. I went swimming, came back, and it wouldn't turn on. That night I carried it out and threw it in the trash. It was a sad night for me.
Then Christmas that year I got another one, and I still have that one today. Isn't it weird how the older consoles/computers last the longest? Why, I just found an Atari 5200 and Magnavox Odyssey 2 at my grandpa's, and they still work. When modern consoles such as Xbox break so often (although I do have a grudge against Microsoft, and after years of problems with them it's no wonder why they break so much). I auctioned them on eBay, but nobody has bought them yet.
But basically, the NES is a little over 25 years old now, so I doubt the N64 in general will die anytime soon. The 90s was the best decade ever, I really think our world has reduced itself. Long live the N64!
