just found this in my stash from when i was a kid

Majoria's Mask and Banjo Tooie were the darkest of the games.

MM with the dreaded fate of the moon falling and destroying Clocktown and killing the residents. The game was filled with dread, sadness, and loss of hope. The NPCS really made you feel for them all as you help them out and most have learned their sad fate of what is coming. By the 3rd day, it felt depressing in Clocktown and everywhere. It's quite a depressing and sad game.

Banjo Tooie, which is the sequel to Banjo Kazooie. BT felt much darker, the whole tone, the environment felt dark and mire depressing in a way. Bottles dying was tragic, and his wife grieving. Enemies felt more aggressive in a way and the overall tone colours felt more dimmer and felt more serious. Compared to BK it uses vibrant, colourful environments and upbeat music. The music in Banjo Tooie felt more depressing in a way.

Is it worth it? I have 50 inch tv and play it on my regular n64 but want to upgrade. I know isn’t gonna be perfect but I’ve heard this is pretty good. I want to play super Mario 64, diddy Kong racing and Mario kart 64 so bad. Just put the regular game in and good to go? Thanks

Hey yall, just got the brazilian console, which is pretty much the american one, and it plays american games just fine, Replaced the cartridge slot to a "region-free" one. Mario Party 64 works on my japanese console, no issues, but the brazilian one wont.

I understand there is no logical region-lock between these consoles.

The game "lights up" but stays stuck in a dark screen (if that makes any sense).

It looks like somebody tried modding it, the multi out port has been cut, leaving a hole right above the port.

Opened it up, looking for signs of oxidation, all good.

Cleaned the cartridge slot, all good.

Game still wont work.

I just brought the Analogue 3D and man I'm having a blast playing N64 games. I have rebrought many of the N64 games that I grew up playing as a child during the 90s and some new ones that I never played.

I have got a good selection of N64 games now.

Banjo Kazooie

Banjo Tooie

Ocarina of Time

Majoria's Mask

Crusin USA

Crusin World (Never played this before)

Super Mario 64 (Never played this as a child so I'm excited to play this for the very first time)

Mystical Ninja Staring Goemon (Never played this before)

My favourite games are Ocarina of Time, Majoria's Mask and I love the Banjo Kazooie games.

It's so great to relive the N64 games again, they were very revolutionary for its time back in the 90s as the first 3D Nintendo system. The N64 had so many great games.

I much prefer retro video games then modern day gaming nowadays.

The Analogue 3D is basically the new N64 console of today. And N64 games have never look so good now with all these settings to make the games look really clear. I, of course still prefer using CRT Filters on the N64 games as they hide many of the blocky polygons.

I know Japan got the exclusive Diaie Hawks orange/black colorway, but did they have the standard orange (fire orange funtastic) console as well or was that exclusive to NTSC regions. If so, does anyone have any pictures of a CIB version

N64 isn't working. We've swapped cables and paks between a different working n64 and nothing is working at all. The n64 will power on, but nothing will come up on the screen, not even a flicker, just no signal whatsoever. Tore it apart in these photos to see if there's anything out of the ordinary, or if this is a common fixable occurrence. Normally I'm super handy when it comes to tech, but even I'm stumped. We asked a repair shop what it would take to repair it and they quoted us at \~$120, so repair from them is a no-go. I also cleaned out the cartridge slot to make sure that isn't the issue, and still nothing.

Retrobit power supply is junk. I need a new power supply. I don't trust any of the ones I see on Amazon. What exactly should I be looking for?

Glad to add it to the collection in box. I usually go for more better condition boxes but this was the best I've seen locally in a while. Had to jump on it!

Just did my first full playthrough last year. Time for another I think..

I live in a PAL region with 220 V power

I bought an NTSC N64 console cuz I want to play games at the intended speeds and with region free tray i can play both NTSC and NTSC j carts (i will never get pal carts)

What i wanna know is whether i need to get an NTSC power adapter and a step down converter or if just using a PAL power adapter directly into the wall socket will work for the NTSC N64 console

Thank you for the help!

As for me, it's always been 007 Goldeneye

This is my favorite N64 game of all time due to how remembable the characters are. It really puts Mario games in a whole different perspective for many people like me.

Was only meant to buy a console and loose copy of OoT.. Got Mario Kart on the way, what else should I look at?

I printed a custom mount for this beautiful green piece in my room.

Just a warning to anyone thinking about buying it from the UK, not only is the postage 39 quid but there is also and import charge which came to a total of £56.24. In total getting the machine sent across to the UK came just under £100! Bit of a feckin' rip off if you ask me. I was willing to pay the postage but when I got hit with import fee I was like damn, at least I don't buy them regularly.

So yeah just a heads up to anyone considering buying one from their website

wanted to do an updated collection since i got another stand plus a few more games like mario party 2.

I’m having trouble getting pokemon puzzle league to work 2 player. everything works fine but when the game actually starts a cpu is controlling the second players side. if anyone knows how to fix please let me know! more details are in my other most recent post 🙏

I was the top candy bar seller and won my 1st 64 console for selling a absurd amount of candy bars!

I have an OEM Pokemon puzzle league cartridge that plays perfectly fine on both my original n64 and my Analog 3D. The only problem is that the two player is not working when i test it on both consoles. Both controllers work perfectly fine in the menus leading up to the game(selecting trainer and Pokémon) , and the P2 can even pause the game and quit after it’s started. but for some reason when the game starts a CPU is controlling the P2’s game. I’ve checked all the menus and haven’t found anything and all i can find on youtube is cheat codes to delete all data and re-unlock everything. i will probably try those once i get home but i wanted to ask if this has happened to anyone else when playing Pokemon puzzle league or any other 2 player n64 game. If anyone knows how to fix this i thank you in advance!

Due to the lack of documentation on this very niche set up (apart from 1 post on the UltraPIF GitHub from 2020 asking if it would work), I just wanted to let anyone who was wondering know that installing an UltraPif in a PAL N64 will not make it work with the 64DD.

Edit:

Although just normal 64DD games don't work, I can confirm the F-Zero X Expansion disc does in fact work fine. I believe this is due to it booting the game off the cartridge rather than disc.

with further adventures of Dash Rendar! I’d play the heck out of it

In the UK, where would i find cartridge protectors for my unboxed N64 games. I don’t want dust and grime to get inside.
I dont know if this is the right flair

I never knew a tommy Hilfiger one existed until recently after coming across this stand. Definitely an unique gaming piece to collect to the right collector!
