    That's a lucky find! There's a lot of projects these days using the original hardware and emulating the floppy drive, or a solid state hard drive so you download the abandonware and have everything in one place. It's all about preservation projects and overcoming failing storage media.

    Great video
    Don’t know whether you own the others (super or mega ever drive x5 series)
    But would the same SD card work with each as long as they all have their seperate OS on the same card?

    hi hope you can answer this question, but do you need an expansion pack to play these games you have on the everdrive?

      The N64 always needs a Jumper Pack or Expansion to function.

      @@SpiritualJD12887 that would be great since Saturn is an absolute nightmare to emulate. I wish it were possible with disk systems like GameCube, ps2, and original Xbox. So many games from those systems I’d love to be able to play without having to track down original discs and all of that.

      Are you saying that your everdrive broke or that your everdrive broke your n64?

    • @SpiritualJD12887
      @SpiritualJD12887 2 года назад +1

      @@JB-mm5ff neither. I'm saying my N64 expansion pack (original system hardware) unrelated to the everdrve stopped working. You see while the default system could play most N64 without issue some games required you install an expansion pack in order to play them: E.G. Perfect Dark, Donkey Kong etc.
      Going even further if you bought a third party expansion pack like I did over decades they can degrade.
      In my case that's exactly what happened as some of the glue melted into the expansion pack circuitry. I tried to clean it off but it was just too far gone to work.
      To be fair at the time I bought it I didn't know it would have this issue or I would have gotten the official N64 expansion pack.

    So in order to play the games, you yourself have to load all the games onto the SD Card Yourself?
    If that’s the case, that’s cool and all, but for those who don’t have a PC, or a Gaming One, or know our way to get downloads of them without putting a fok ton of viruses on our computer’s, it isn’t good in the slightest…
    Is there an Ever like Drive that already has all the games loaded on it? If so, where can I purchase it
