Do I really need to pay this much to properly play 64 games?

[Anonymous No.5502323]

Or you could have owned the games since the actual time they came out (or when buying retro games wasn't en vogue, in the early 00s, so it was far cheaper).

[Anonymous No.5502327]

3 or 4 of the more popular N64 games will run you the cost of an Everdrive 64 and N64 emulation is pretty shitty. It's really the best value as far as the N64 is concerned.

It's based on the first Everdrive and both run the same 1.0 software. It could probably run 2.0 as well but 2.0 checks if your Everdrive is legit or not and I haven't heard anyone cracking it.

Well you can wait until the insufferable members of the kevtris church come along and try to tell you the Analogue NT64 is a 1:1 copy of the N64, even though it doesn't support certain microcodes, because that's still 1:1! Remember, FPGAs are emulation but aren't but are but aren't! ;)

[Anonymous No.5502667]

No point for this shit. The n64 is so cheap overall, this isn't a nes or snes so not having a collection for those consoles makes sense getting a flashcart because prices are insane. There's only a handful of games over $50 for the system so just go buy the carts.

Cds were so easy to make backups of it wasn't even funny. A few dollars for a game shark and you were on your way.

The Everdrive 64 is great not just because it allows you to play games, it also takes sales away from a reseller. That alone is reason enough to buy one. Thus far I have bought and given away 2 of them, because both my brother and my brother-in-law were commenting about buying a few games for their systems. They would have spend more than I did and I even had random flash drives laying around that fit the entire NTSC collection. Fuck resellers. I plan on getting one more for myself, and releasing my carts into the wild. I easily have enough in original carts to make my money back on all 3 of them.

[Anonymous No.5502794]

It depends on what games you wanna play. Most of the better games are perfectly emulated through the VC on a Wii console.

>fuck resellers and fuck collectorfags driving up prices with their shit tier elitism
They can get buried with all their shitty plastics and electronics for all I care. Fuck them. They are scum. Its 2019, and over the last few years, resellers have become irrelevant to a gamer. Now, don't take me the wrong way. I love collectors also. I have no problem with decorating your shelves with all of the games you think are cool. That is part of the hobby. Resellers are a mutual enemy of Gamers and collectors. If these fuckwits want to resell their games to other resellers and vice versa, it is nothing more than a glorified circle jerk, and I will have no part in it....but me spending a few dollars can save me hundreds AND rob them of their precious shekels. I fight retarded prices by simply not buying. Eventually these resellers will die from heart attacks, or have to file bankruptcy and their precious "hidden gems" will be sold at an estate sale in $5 box lots. If you are a collector, keep an eye out for this. It is real and it is going to start happening.

[Anonymous No.5502824]

>>5502810
Collectorfags suck because its just a bunch of plastic they drive up to insane prices by holding on to them, good deals only exist by buying from people that sell their old consoles and have no interest in collecting and don't care, which is scumming them since collectorfags and resellers drove up prices to insane amounts. I can get your grandson's copy of Final Fantasy 7 for 5 dollars, but these retards have driven up the prices so badly I'd feel bad about doing that.

Good and fair deals are dead because of both, and it's simply best just to emulate on PC or hacked consoles just to avoid dealing with this cancerous market.

just find and download gliden64 to use as your video plugin next time. The state of emulation really isn't as bad as it used to be (I'd even say its more consistent than PS2 emulation).
The trouble you need to go through to get an n64 viable for modern tv isn't worth it at all. HDMI mods, flashcarts, analog stick replacements, and a legit expansion pak that doesn't fry your console is alot of hassle.

[Anonymous No.5502931]

>why should I deprive my kids of the superior experience?
In this instance playing by flashcart is a better experience by a large margin considering every game works perfectly with no downsides. Only letting your kids play what you did as a kid is borderline torture.

Nope wrong again. There is a clear difference and if you can't tell then you out yourself as not growing up with this stuff. I own all the good games, no need to play a bunch of shovelware junk. Cry and complain harder poorfag who can't even buy a couple games so he cheaps out on a flashcart. Why don't you try sitting down and completing a game for once instead of having to test 400 games like some spastic ocd little kid who has to have his way all the time.

>there is essentially no difference between a real cart and an Everdrive.

S-video cables are cheap as fuck to make & the auction specifies that it is not composite over s-video.

The 64 had maybe a dozen good games and most of them got ported to the VC. For somebody who just wants to play the classics, a modded Wii is a solid choice.

I'll play a game to completion (or as far as I can get), but the issue with me is working up the gumption to actually start a new game, which only tends to happen every few months. So backlog grows at a rate faster than I'm chipping away at it.

The English ROM is a romhack. The one I use is "Tsumi to Batsu - Hoshi no Keishousha (J) [T+Eng1.0_Zoinkity].z64" and it works fine on ED64plus. There's another translation with version number 1.1 but I don't have a patched ROM of that.

everdrive can backup your saves so you can transfer them to computer, but no, no n64 flashcart makes it so games save to the cart instead of an actual memory card.
its the final hurdle to be honest. lots of games dont play nice with others when it comes to controller pack saves. some are even prone to wiping the whole controller pack.

That's a temporary problem. By either using a more powerful future CPU and code optimizations you will finally get an accurate N64 emulator. Something that wasn't even on the horizon two years ago.

Ebay would protect you as the buyer 100% in this situation. I have already returned cables that did not do what they said they did. I would trust this auction because of its wording. Worst case scenario is that you spend less than $10 and ebay refunds you because the cable doesn't do what it says.

I never got into N64 much because I was PC gaming back then. I picked up an N64 and Everdrive with a couple controllers for like $100. Great deal, and now I never have to bother collecting the carts.

Dude, >>5509694 and >>5509698 are both using a sexcore intel i7-8700k. That's a processor that's still considered high end in 2019. If that's not 'beefy' to you then I'd sure love to know what kind of computer you're using to emulate N64 games at that level. It sure as hell ain't going to be some old 486 powered potato from 1990.

I'm not saying the CPU is not beefy. I'm saying it's not beefy enough.
Soon, either through new CPUs or software optimization, you will finally have decent N64 emulation. Something that was not even on the horizon before Parallel Angrylion existed.

Those posts are over 3 years old. Where does it state that they still don't work now in 2019? Not that I assume most Mario 64 hacks will work because it's kinda like those SMW hacks from over 10 years ago that will only work on ZSnes: doomed to be limited by an inaccurate emulator or inaccurate settings at the very least.

I slowly saved up spare cash to buy my V.3 Everdrive because it wasn't something I urgently needed but I did want it eventually.

It cost me 300$ with shipping (Canadian) and I got it a couple weeks ago. It is definitely worth the money. The fact that I can play some random games that wouldn't be worth buying just to see how fun they are (I would never buy Toystory 2 but now that I've tried it I love it). There is also the convenience of never swapping carts.

It's at that price point where it needs to be something worth while. My issue with the N64 is that I already had Paper Mario, Kirby 64 and Mario Kart but I wanted to play Super Smash, Harvest Moon, DK64 and Diddy Kong Racing. Those alone made it close to the 300$ price point but it also unlocked every other game on the system for me to try and the convenience of never changing carts again. I'm glad I did it because if I didn't then I would always be wishing I could play some random game I didn't already own.
