Transforming a Nintendo 64 into a hand-held portable
Brandon Davenport
The world of hand-held gaming is surging, lead by Nintendo, Sony and Apple — people are going nuts for gaming in the go, and the experiences available on portable devices now are amazing, even when compared to console gaming a few generations back. It’s really exciting to have something new to play on your iPhone every day for a few bucks, or start playing the next big title on your PSP or DS. The Nintendo64 has stepped out of the limelight for a long time, but with this new mod by borjaus from Inventos Unicos, the N64 is back baby.

Note: Translated from Spanish
“The speakers I used are from a monitor as they are very small and sound great. (Do not use the NDS because they get interference). The cartridge slot and you have to unsolder command to change the position (you need a good desoldering iron), spread them with very fine cablecillos for better management. It has integrated the Expansion Pak Donkey Kong 64 game, Perfect Dark, etc. have the Rumble Pak built into the console, in addition to 2 vibration motors instead of one.
The hardest to make it professional is the case, is what takes more hours, is made entirely of plastic (plastic pieces). There are two pieces (front and back) that fit with each other by adjusting the console entirely. The finishes are thin and perfect anchors, we have included the original Nintendo logo on the controller.”
