Softmod Nintendo 64

Nothinbeter2do · 03-01-2009, 05:06 PM

Does anyone know if it is possible to softmod a Nintendo 64? I want to be able to launch games off a something like a hard drive or a SD card. Don't tell me to get an emulator because that it NOT what I want.

I'm pretty sure this isn't gonna happen.

Many think that but there is actually a way from what I have heard. It does involve a rare peripheral device called Doctor v64. Which basically allows you to play roms through a normal N64 off a CD, and supposedly a hdd as well with newer firmware. Even though it was originally sold as like a consumer dev kit, people modded them and allowed them to backup games and play said backups (roms). I do not know the specfics on them, I just know they are expensive.

Believe it or not, its true. I have one of those and i never actually knew what it was. I remember a forum a long time ago that was dedicated to that handy lil' device but unfortunately i cant remember the site name and i doubt its still online so yea that device is probably the only thing that you'll look for to do what you want.

Oh well, I guess it would be easier to use a N64 controller on my computer.
