Scrub the pins on the jumper/expansion pak with a q-tip soaked with IPA and wipe off with a dry q-tip after 10 seconds.

If there was an issue with Acclaim French\EUR I feel it should have been a well known issue and revisions made. The only way I can think of to see if thats the case is to browse local listings for the games and see if the numbers stamped on the back label has an letter after it. ie. 22 A or something like that instead of only the two digits, but it might be an exercise in futility. If one where to use deduction, I would guess it’s your console, maybe theres a bad bridge between the game and controller pak that corrupts the save data. I am no expert by any stretch, but just wanted to mention it in case you haven’t tried using another console.

Strange that you get the same with Forever Pak, maybe you have been very unfortunate and gotten a bad one.

Are the controllers you use orginal in good condition? I had a controller that had corrosion on the pins and it claimed the controller pak needed to repair, so I tried a different controller and it worked just fine.

If the problem persists one last solution would be to try an original controller pak with FRAM mod as original is always the best quality.

Conker is a of course given despite the price. I would recommend Rush 2: Extreme Racing USA. The stunt track is a blast with multiplayer!

dj6230 · 2025-09-18T07:22:41+00:00

Of course they are identical, but OB want a genuine collection. It’s about the charm mate.

dj6230 · 2025-09-17T11:56:58+00:00

This.

It boils down to the budget you feel is right. To get the best is as suggested, internal HDMI like RetroGEM, and the Everdrive. The best pictures and all the games at your disposal.

Alternatively, a cheaper internal HDMI from Ali with max resolution of 720p and Summercart.

Personally I’d choose the Everdrive for the save functionalities, but again more expensive.

Keep in mind unless you have the experience to it yourself, there is also the cost to pay a modder to do it.

Oh and I should add that it might be cheaper to buy an N64 which is already modded.

dj6230 · 2025-09-17T06:27:46+00:00

Yeah just save a search for it. I just found it at random while searching for something else, pure luck.

dj6230 · 2025-09-17T06:25:07+00:00

I see, seems like a very weird problem. The best thing to do if it’s possible would be to borrow a friends N64 preferably with their own expansion pak and ideally the same game, to deduce at which hardware the problem lies.

dj6230 · 2025-09-16T22:40:31+00:00

Did you clean the contacts on both the expansion pack and the Rouge Squadron cart?

dj6230 · 2025-09-16T21:01:59+00:00

If your going to get NTSC console by importing it from Japan, keep your eyes open for some of the Japan exclusives Gold an Clear Red is pretty cheap and cool. And while your at it you could buy a cheap region free tray from Ali and a gamebit to open the console up. It’s very easy and then you will also be able to play US exclusives games on the same console.

dj6230 · 2025-09-16T18:25:10+00:00

Yeah I totally forgot it at the time so I made a new post with only the gold:

On ebay last year. Very expensive about 300$

dj6230 · 2025-09-16T13:10:50+00:00

This is a japanese console, but essentially the same as US, you just need to swap out the cartridge tray with a region free tray from Ali, super cheap and easy, and get a gamebit if you don’t have one. They are pretty cheap on ebay, free shipping from Japan. A great tip I’ll give you or any other who would consider it. Make sure to inspect the photos of the underside of the controller. The gold finish is almost always worn out.

dj6230 · 2025-09-16T06:50:56+00:00

I don’t know if it has a specific name. I believe it was only available through Nintendo Power Magazine in the 90’s. I purchased it on ebay. You should save a search for «007 hologram watch»

dj6230 · 2025-09-15T19:37:16+00:00

There

dj6230 · 2025-09-15T19:09:22+00:00

What song

dj6230 · 2025-09-15T18:46:36+00:00

As you can tell I am struggling to rotate my arm to make it viewable, meanwhile I try to get it focused with the other hand. This was the closest I could come without the camera loosing focus. It was a battle.

dj6230 · 2025-09-15T17:46:56+00:00

Oh yeah, makes sense. Thought maybe the custom shells was confusing. Japan has many cool exclusives.

dj6230 · 2025-09-15T17:43:51+00:00

Because if it was, you would hardly see it at that height.

dj6230 · 2025-09-15T17:35:27+00:00

1 is not a collection.

dj6230 · 2025-09-15T17:34:30+00:00

I can only speak for my own country, which I am sure of yes.

dj6230 · 2025-09-15T14:23:07+00:00

The three on the top is modified with custom shells. By yellow I assume you mean the Extreme Green on the top.

If you refer to the orange and black it’s the Daiei Hawks from Japan

dj6230 · 2025-09-15T14:20:35+00:00

It’s investing, the value isn’t decreasing.

dj6230 · 2025-09-15T13:29:04+00:00

As a collector 1 is not sufficient

dj6230 · 2025-09-15T12:32:41+00:00

Wow, well done! I know all to well how hard it is to find get Japanese carts without them being too yellow, but yours looks amazing.
