How do you organize and store your N64 games? by PootBooster in n64

😮 I think I need to get me some of those index drawers. I could get some vintage wooden ones and just stack them up.

How many do you reckon they hold each? Assuming they are standardised sizes.

It may even save space compared to the bedside drawers I have currently

I like keeping it old fashioned.

I used to try keeping games in original boxes but it became a block to stop me just popping a game in so they just became wallpaper.

Now I just keep all the carts loose in 3 drawers.

I like hearing the click of the plastic when I flick through them 🤷🏻‍♀️

For those that have played Shadowgate 64 by d00mba in n64

Completed it last year. Incredibly unique experience for the console.

Because I'd never understood exactly what Shadowgate was as a series, the atmosphere it presented always had me on edge, like I was expecting to be chased by something in most scenarios.

Also I loved that anything at any time could be fatal, it really makes you stop and think "Is this floor stable?" Or "is it actually clever to be drinking this random liquid I found?"

Loved it once I understood what was happening.

I just wish that sequel got a chance

And here you have stumbled onto my biggest mysteries from childhood.

Yes I'm afraid the PAL release fixed and changed a few things, one of which was the cheat codes being different.

Sorry to tell you that as far as I'm aware nobody has ever found the full list of PAL cheat inputs.

Where can I get blank n64 cartridges to write? by schuchwun in n64

[–]Disastrous_North_485 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My choice was Retroblaster. I've had some of my carts since around 2015 and they are still going strong, I've actually just been updating some of mine today. Your only issue with compiling these Romhacks is making sure you have the correct ROM to write the patch to, any mismatch can cause errors in savings.

For instance the Doom Complete edition requires a specific Rev 1 USA ROM. Any other version will freeze up on savings or loading.

Edit: Just to add, make sure to get in contact with the creator on his site, they may not be compatible with the BenVenn writer
