    As you see the forum editor is kinda bork for me, if someone wants to post the links and video in a nicer, clicky form please do.

    Ultra 64 logo project

    Before you know it, you'll have expanded to replacement cases for the system :D The only aftermarket case currently is the warrior64, otherwise people with broken cases have to hunt broken n64s.

    Ultra 64 logo project

    When the model is ready, you can order them from a service like shapeways that use industrial quality printers. For prototyping however, getting the measurements exactly right, it would be good to have a printer locally. Maybe your library or a near hackspace has one you can use for cheap.

    Ultra 64 logo project

    For the badge, 3d print clear plastic in the shape and put a good-quality print of the logo behind it.
  7. The other color combinations are fine, but the bottom middle has bad contrast between bg and other elements. Try using a darker color than the current blue bg, or changing both. The bottom left has similar bad contrast, but the color choice is different enough it doesn't affect my eyes the same way.
  8. The carts with rumble or a light sensor aren't that useful in a GB Player.
  9. What a thread :D I do agree N64 aged worse than NES, but only slightly. Now if you compared to SNES you'd have a real case. N64 aged way better than the contemporary 3d consoles, ps1 and saturn, which have all sorts of terrible rendering issues. N64 is just low resolution, which is fine.
  10. It is the best RE to me, and playing it on the Wii, aiming with wiimotes is excellent. Beats controller stick aiming heads down.
  11. The SGB passes audio to the SNES via the two audio pins, left and right. This sounds like one of those pins, on either the cart or your console, is dirty. The usual DIY fix for the console side is a microfiber cloth with a credit card pushing it down.
  12. If they're printed, it's on an industrial quality 3d printer. FDM does not look like that, home resin can't do that large parts. Plus you have to consider the time to make the model, iterate port/piece locations... There's a reason nobody has made a replacement case model so far.
  13. There's a risk they'll only produce the amount for the KS orders and quit, making the cases rare collectibles. In that case the ebay price could be 400$ ;D If it gets bigger production, then sure.
  14. Well, you can get the 95$ DIY package and just sell/scrap the hdmi adapter. That gets you the case, and (not sure, CBA to check) the controller.
  15. It's likely that by now the save file format is known, and if you have a hacked switch, you can just look in the save file for which ones you got.
  16. https://old.reddit.com/r/n64/comments/it0fq0/the_guide_how_to_setup_your_n64_to_modern_tvs/
  17. Right, it's not a clone console, it's a new case and a builtin s-video-to-hdmi adapter. According to retrorgb, the adapter may be poor quality. The case itself looks fine, and it's about time to get new N64 cases to replace broken ones.
  18. No, that doesn't help PS1 any. The CD drive is not the hard part, the processing power is. PC Engine is like an overclocked NES, way another league.

    N64 game jam

    There's a N64 game jam starting. Maybe folks here will be interested in trying a new console, or seeing what others cook up. https://forums.nesdev.com/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=21008
  20. Not quite sure what game it was, but I learned English by playing games.
  21. The Brawler64 folks have started a KS for the wireless version: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1247448559/n64-nintendo-64-wireless-controller-next-gen 29$ plus postage, same shape as the wired Brawlers. They mention the Z button response is slightly changed.
  22. There was a leak about Disney, that they realized "get woke, go broke" had happened to them, and Star Wars is about to get a U-turn. Lucas being brought back even. Could be fake, though I'd love to see it happen.
