Creating the Ultimate Nintendo N64 (Completed)
For my first MOD I wanted to bring the N64 bang up to date and modernize the original hardware to output to modern tvs, have the whole back catalogue on the system and the best player experience with the least amount of fuss.
List of MODS
Gamebox 64HD:
A HDMI Mod was fitted to the console to take the original rendered image created by the GPU and then upscaling the raw frame to 720p, bypassing the low quality DAC Nintendo fitted to the console.
Additional Add-ons
Kaico SummerCart 64:
The SummerCart 64 is a budget alternative to the Everdrive64 which in all honesty seems to work just as well. Enabling you to fit all you N64 ROMs onto a microSD card and then play them all on the original hardware.
Brawler 64 controller:
The controllers that launched with the N64 were....a choice...A choice Nintendo made that I can't say I totally agree with. Now, 20 plus years later, they are definitely showing their age. Thankfully retrofighters.com have a fantastic modern controller that works amazingly. https://retrofighters.com/our-collection/brawler64-nextgen-n64-controller-colors-v2/
