- My N64.
Hope you like it.
PLEASE READ:
FAQ:
This is the only one I will make :-)
Sorry, but I didn't put this video here to entice people to buy or commission me to make them an N64 like this. I just thought I'd share what I have made.
HOW LONG DID IT TAKE?:
4 months of pretty much all of my free time.
That sounds like a long time, but there was a lot of trial and error involved as most of the mods in here have not been done before (at least, not to my knowledge).
I didn't copy anyone for this mod. The only thing that can probably be considered "mainstream" (from a modder's perspective) is the RGB mod. This is well documented on the internet.
WHY DIDN'T YOU BUILD THE TRANSMITTER INTO THE CONTROLLER?:
Didn't want to :-) Plain and simple.
I didn't want the system to be reliant on a single controller - and I didn't want to mod a controller anyway because by the time I'd finished the actual console, I was sick to death of the whole project ;-)
WHY DIDN'T YOU MAKE THE CONTROLLERS WIRELESS?:
1) I like the look of the asymmetrical single controller port.
2) You have to sacrifice the Controller Pak slot. Too many games use the Controller Pak to save. So I'm not doing this.
WILL YOU TAKE IT APART AGAIN AND SHOW ME HOW YOU DID IT?:
Nope :-)
I don't want to run a modding helpline for the rest of my life. Sorry.
Thanks for watching.
Every year I come back to this video to gawk at how amazing this is
I do the same thing mate. No one has topped this console to my knowledge. Mako mod is good but not this good
It's almost that time of the year bub. Lol
I hope you’re watching in 720p!
@@CustosKeeper There really isn't much left to top. He pretty much covered every mod you'd want to make to an n64.
The only think I would change would probably be to get rid of the key fob and install it inside the primary controller. You can even pull power from the controller, so it wouldn't need a battery. It would be some extra work, but I think having the power and reset in the controller also helps prevent losing the dang thing.
@@joemann7971 well someone better get to the bottom of this. I don't even care if it is at the top.
Game companies need to take note of this. If they were to recreate the classic consoles and mass market them with updated hardware, the sails would be incredible. How many of you would buy a modernized N64 today?
Me! In a heartbeat I wouldn't even think about it. And thats saying something since I would easily hold off on the newer ones now
count me in mabye retextured games
+Hulk
sails
+Hulk everybody in my family would own one
+Hulk people would mass buy them only if they woudnt have to buy games all over again....it would have to launch with overdrive and let people download games 4 free....nostalgia should always be free.
But does it have blast processing?
8bitslime But will it blend?
8bitslime Forget blast processing. Where's the Mode 7?
+8bitslime Do the math :)

It’s so weird to think that this was released when 720p was the highest resolution
Thanks for all the kind words, folks :)
It makes it all worthwhile!
Although, the cracks were completely unintentional -- they look radical. :D!
Lord Majora
They weren't unintentional :-)
You Sir, are officially a legend. This looks absolutely amazing! It's a pity that you aren't cranking Goldeneye split screen 4 player all day like my N64 used too but hey, still a legend!
157 people have no taste.
itsDavoBro
It's a pity that multitap section of the video constantly gets skipped ;-)
I still come back to this video every couple years. Incredible. Looks quite nice I think.
I think I said that about 12 times without realising it 😂
To this day, this is the best N64 I have ever seen anyone make.
"I'm a big fan of fans" --Wow, never heard anyone say that before
I liked that as well.
+Subzero Arctics Lol I wasn't really commenting on the sentence though, just the plain fact that typically no one likes fans because they're annoying. Obviously this guy never had an original Xbox 360!
+Subzero Arctics I do and I had to fix the fan from sounding like a jet engine to a loud hum
+Subzero Arctics I like fans too. idc how loud they are because I game with headphones :)
+Matthew Cruz And then you got the RROD, right?
I'm looking at this, thinking "Aye that's not too bad". Then the lights go on and I'm going "Jesus that thing is sexy". Well done sir, it's lovely!
Thanks a lot, man. :-)
TH-cam keeps recommending this even though I've seen it before. Even with all the mods out there now I think this still goes down as the most impressive N64 for me.
Thanks very much :-)
I watched this when I was like 15, now in mid 20's just seriously amazing. Its value should be worth at least 3-5k in my eyes
That makes me feel old... Hahaha 😂
This guy pulled an apple and removed every useful port on the device.
Edit: Lmao he also made a dongle to add them back XD
That console is every 90's kids dream. I'm thirty and still this modded console accelerates my heartbeat.
darkreaver2004 Thanks man. Glad you like it :-)
Going to treat myself to 720p.
Wow amazing piece of hardware! That looks fantastic.
Modding come so far since this point. And I still haven’t seen anyone take it as far as this guy. Very impressive. If I had more patience I might’ve tried this at some point lol. The thing I like most is the multi tap. And the wireless switch key fob.
I remember watching this years ago
Omg same
That is so cool. I don't even know how I got to this video but I watched the whole thing hahaha.
Also if you read this can you explain a bit more about the paint? Or if anyone knows how to do it can you let me know? I want to do it to my bike frame lol
AevzOfficial www.plasti-kote.co.uk/Product/pcode---4085/pccode---3620
Da faq did I just watch. That's like taking a honda and putting a v8 turbo charged engine in it.
Because that's never happened -.-
I'll take a turbo B series over a turbo lt1 any day.
+Nathan Fletcher What's wrong with that?
it's more like making an old Plymouth a hot rod (shaving door handles, new engine, fancy interior and wheels, etc)
Challenge: for your next custom N64, make the console automatically turn on when you insert a Game Pak. That will eliminate one button on the next fob.
He stated he doesn't intend on doing any more mods. People would pay huge amounts of money if he did though.
Exercise is bad for you, video games are good. I agree with this logic.
That is a very, very impressive conversion. Imaginative too. The multi-tap caught me completely off guard. Genius!
Thanks :-)
Yeah, that multitap has caught a few off guard.
This guy has such a relaxing voice. You could even call it unintentional ASMR.
“If your not watching in 720p” the way tech has changed. Although the ironic thing is I’m watching lower than 720p
The paint work is amazing but good god the design is impractical as all hell
8 years old video, lad still replying to comments. What a king.
I aim to please 😊
Thanks for watching
May seem odd, but I am totally geeking out about the over-lapping controller port covers. It looks machine made. Excellent job. Also, probably the best illuminated logo I have seen.
Those covers were probably the worst part of this project.
Each one took me about 40 minutes to make, and there are 6 of them. Then it was some fine needle file and sandpaper work to make them perfectly flush.
Never again, I tell ya ;-)
Glad you like it though, dude. Thanks for the comment :-)
I remember watching this video when I was 12 wishing I had this monster
I see white and gold, do any of you see black and blue?
Oscar Venegas I see a terrible meme.. Bring back the arrow to the knee, I say!
Oscar you must be color blind 😉
Ghost96 e
and you clearly don't know what he's talking about.
Lol'd Oscar Venegas
Richard Mumford yes I do ;)
I know he was joking. Just wanted to mess with him
I remember this video and that paint job very clearly, it's crazy to think this was 10 years ago! I must've been 13 or 14 when I first saw it!
I saw this while randomly browsing around youtube.
Man, this thing is BADASS.
The N64 was and is a great system. (Although, I honestly had no idea about the everdrive, that would be handy, as it would save me tons of space)
This is honestly just too awesome. Nice work (And yes, I like the paint. Took a moment to get used to, but it's nice.)
Thanks a lot, man :-)
Glad you liked it.
I'm putting this idea on the table: How about an NES shell with N64 internals?
The multitap is brilliant! Love the console
The only thing I'd do differently would be a yellow or orange Standby light. (I relate red to bad. LOL)
The keyfob power/reset is also very cool.
This is a fantastic modded console.
I agree. Very good mod... the detail is quite stunning. :)
Thanks a lot, man :-)
CPS2 You're quite welcome! (Credit where it is due! LOL)
I've done a lot of mods, but not many on that level! I think my AT-AT Gamecube would be the only thing that even compares. And on a technical level, yours is much better.
"No unnecessary exercise, because exercise is bad for you." If you were making these and selling them then that would be the main selling point for us lazy people in the US. I think this is the best mod on a console that I have ever seen.
JonnyBoyUltra161 haha :-) Thanks man!
Nice profile pic my good sir. I'm a reddit moderator over at /r/politics and /r/videos and I have to say you look like a total operator. You must be a part of DEVGRU or ODA.
Hello, folks!
Just so you know; I have now modded the stock controller you see in this vid.
A pretty hefty LED mod.
Extreme 10 LED Nintendo 64 controller mod. Purple N64 controller pad mod.
When you visit the rich kid's house down the street to play games.
"I don't even need to get up, I don't need to expose myself to any unnecessary excersize
, cause excersize is bad for you"
You sir, I like you
lol :-)
I'd love to see a custom controller that fits with the look of this console, if you still use it 7 years later lol
this N64 mod still holds up to this day, the only thing people would want now is an HDMI port and/or RGB
This one does have RGB but yeah HDMI support would be greatly appreciated in modern era.
A properly done RGB mod and a good low-latency hdmi adapter are all you need (or you could also use component cables and a display which is able to properly display the 240p and 480i signals with low latency, such as a good late generation CRT with component inputs the back. SCART cables (which can plug into the N64's proprietary "multi-out" port will also be about as good as a component cable (and will also only work if your system is RGB modded).
You did a beautiful job with this n64 dude! The cracked paintjob looks fantastic!
Hai realizzato un esemplare unico dell'N64.la console e customizzata in modo molto preciso e meticoloso.un buon lavoro,bravo
Hahahah! "So Im not exposed to any unnecessary exercise, cuz exercise is bad for ya" omfg i LOVED that line
Truth! ;-)
Hahaha, bro! Not only are u smart and pretty talented, but u got a great sense of humor! Fuckin, Kudos to you good sir, Fucking Kudos! :)
Where do you learn how to customise all that? You really know your stuff, including soldering, electrical devices, paint...are you a wizard or something?
+BearGills Just been tinkering with stuff my entire life, man :-)
BearGills
Start small, man. A new paint job would be a good start
I just bought myself a Wii and gave it a paint job.
Next up: chipping my Gamecube and also give it a fresh paint!
Bravo, bravo. You thought of everything with these modifications and they turned out beautifully. Form AND function. Brilliant.
I love the little touches like moving the power light switch to complement the single controller port and balance the look on the front of the system.
Great job!
+hunter371 Thanks very much :-)
I agree, I think you've done an amazing job on this 😃 love the cracked paint effect 👍🏼 good to see people are still so enthusiastic about this console. It was a massive part of my childhood until something happened to it, I'm now 28 and had to get another one a couple months back and now my 6yr old son is enjoying it just as much as me. Nice work CPS2 was a pleasure watching 😊
+Becky Taylor Glad you liked it, thank you :-)
I remember watching this video when I was a teen. 9yrs already.
Same. I'm now in a concentration camp.
I was preparing myself to modify/customize my old Nintendo 64 and all of a sudden you recommend me this? Does youtube/internet has a recorder to hear everything you say or something?
anything with a mic on it will actually hear keywords you say. theres a lot of info on this on youtube and online. you can do your own research. its just a marketing technique.
@Bob I'm with you exactly. The situation is beyond dire. There calculating every Americans every move with AI and controlling society now with ease. Great beast 666 is technology and this phone
Yes
For those who are going to comment "Where are the other 3 controller ports" the guy modified it through an external port which is a Genesis/MegaDrive controller port since he mostly plays only 1 player but to be fair, how many people play N64 games with more 1 person "it's a rare occasion for me so I'd do the same myself", just thought I'd let you guys know before you write something like that.
But besides that, it's a very lovely mod, I love the colors on the system and controller ports.
cutemimi25 personally only ever play anything Nintendo as couch multiplayer
This is so awesome! I hope there's a follow up video opening the case to see it's insides. This is such a cool series of mods.

thought I would hate it, but I love it. the best I hav seen of its type, nice
Thanks :-) Glad you like it.
I remember watching this back in the day, good ol times I was a lil kid back then lol
PROPS. This has got to be the BEST mod for N64 I've ever seen. Terrific job, everything seems to be operational and really seems like a true product of Nintendo. Really nice seeing someone that's knows what he's doing for a change! Amazing mod.
+Robert Herrera Thanks bro!
Completely forgot about this mod. Watched it years ago and the algorithm finally brought it back to my life. Now to resist the urge to destroy a handful of n64’s attempting something half as interesting as this one.
hey man what kind of classes did you take to know so much about electronic hardware and painting?
No specific classes or anything.
I've just been messing about with electronics for 20 years :-)
I used to make RC model cars and race them when I was a kid. That's probably where I got the paint skillz from ;-)
This is like the 6th console mod I've done (though the first I've put on youtube) so I've had practice... though this was the most technical mod I've ever done.
CPS2 . this is awesome man, by far the best n64 mod I ever seen, I wish I had almost half of your wisdom
Absolutely brilliant, man! I first watched this video close to when it was released. now it 2021 and it's still the coolest N64, maybe console, I've ever seen.
This was absolutely rad, man. The time, effort, and dedication that went into this is astounding. Ten outta ten. I would love to have something like this in my game zone.
TheMrElbowman Thanks very much, dude
I think he likes the n64
Love almost everything...
But you should have relocated the 2nd controller port to the right side, and left the light in the middle - though I like it vertical.
The controller port on one side only triggers my OCD
I would have removed all of controller ports and opt for Bluetooth. The backlit logo could have been the power light instead of keeping the original light.
@@weeh3932 do you think that Bluetooth didn't exist in 2013?
nice job. i dont care what people say but gaming was so much better in the 80s and 90s when a games console was just a games console. now we get long ass loading screens you need internet to get the most out of your games and lets not forget social media and streaming. i just want a xbox or a ps4 just to play games not to watch tv or sent a tweet if i wanted to do that i would simply watch tv or use my phone to sent a tweet not power on my console.
+0reaver01 Amen, brother!
+0reaver01 in all seriousness, I think that the games themselves in the 80s and 90s were far and away more phenomenal than most games these days. However, not all games including internet connectivity are bad. Sure, when it's a requirement and the internet connectivity does jack diddly, it's bad, but when it's either wholly optional or entirely necessary, it's lovely stuff! As for the social media bit, yeah, I could do without that whole angle. Maybe keep the streaming capability, though, I quite like watching video games live, to decide if they're worth buying. Also, the loading screens are simply an unfortunate shortcoming of the disk technology that games are stored on now, I miss the days of cartridges and short loading screens myself. (also this n64 mod is phenomenal work)
+0reaver01 I'm only 18 and I agree I feel like when I played the n64 it was so new now games all feel the same
Also, how the fuck did you make this 9 years ago I barely see even minor mods on the N64 even after massive improvements in how people understand the inner workings of the console
Jesus! Has it been 9 years already?!
@@CPS2 yeah dude I wasn't even a teen when I first watched this now I'm a grown ass man lol
@@Scornfull
And I'm an old ass man 👴🏻
@@CPS2 true but you're still one of the best console modders I've ever seen at least lol
@@Scornfull
Maybe once upon a time 😊 There are some clever folks out there now.
The humour in this video is underrated lmao
Get in touch with EON with their Super 6 that's coming out mate. I bet they would sort you out with a demo unit to show off. Be a great addition to this fantastic build. Great vid and n64 mate!
The OCD really show in this console. Everything is nice, neat and very detailed. 10/10.
Absolutely sick, brother. 🤯🤤
This is just down right Badass....Very very Badass.....
Good lord that's a beautiful console and Ive seen plenty but this one is breath taking.
genius, pure genius.
can you modify the control pad, perhaps removing the poinless left arm and streamline it to be more like a gamecube contoller?
Pointless?! Some of us use use the left arm 100% of the time 😀
PandosII you could only use the d pad it in fighting games and sidescrollers....of which there were few and could be played with the joystick.
incidently, i actually like using the d pad on the wii classic controller.
I gripped the left arm with my left hand 100% of the time and controlled the analog stick with my left thumb. Maybe I'm weird. I used the middle finger of my right hand to reach the Z button!
I wasn't shit at games either. ;)
Wellcrisi Opposite eh?
So you gripped the right leg with your right foot 0% of the time and controlled the analog stick with your right thumb. Maybe you're normal. You use the middle toe of your left foot to reach the Z button?
+PandosII that's just crap you did not play that way. You just made that up.
Not a fan of the color scheme, but very nice modding and paint effect. Thanks for the thorough technical explanation behind the standby mode addition. About how long do you think it would take you to replicate all of your work? Have you started selling these?
+iFokshe Pah
1. This project required all of his free time over a span of four months.
2. No, he hasn't started selling these, and doesn't EVER want to. Ever.
20XX. Yeah I'm not so crazy about the color scheme either, but clearly my opinion is stupid because this man is a total fvcking genius and he chose to go with a cracked cream color. He obviously knows what's best, and we should learn to love cracked cream.
Scooter Rodriguez Not wise to joke about copying genius. The first build of anything takes an excessive amount of time and innovation. Replicating isn't too hard. I can respect his desire to not replicate for sale, one can dream though.
+iFokshe Pah wut
Not sure what confused you. I'll take a guess you are asking about why you shouldn't joke about copying genius. Many people legitimately do copy entire aspects of peoples lives in which they admire. Altho it spreads the original content it also limits new content from being formed by those doing the spreading. Maybe they would have been capable of achieving a greater genius had they only tried.
If I tried to make a better or different version of this modding I may make some great new innovation not yet discovered. If I purchased this from him I never will. If I solely tried to replicate it I wouldn't make anything new.
Ahhhb back when 720p was the beez knees
This is literally the coolest thing I've seen in years
That is pretty killer
Anyone 2020 here?
no
Nope

WOW! THE SEXIEST N64, I've ever seen!! :O
Thanks very much :-)
That's absolutely stunning. At first I wasn't a fan of the cracked paint, due to the angle and lighting when first seeing it. Once I saw it closer up though, WOW. It looks amazing.
Fantastic work! You should be proud.
That CUSTOM 64 looks like a MINECRAFT sand block.
Listen bro this was the coolest thing we'd ever dang seen back in the day.

One of these with a water droplet effect would be awesome
Coolest shit I've seen in a long time! Nice job, bro!
I would recommend combining the remote with your N64 controller. The remote is somewhat small and could get lost, whereas the controller is much less likely to be misplaced. Other than that little idea, this looks fantastic.
Lmao I remember this video from elementary school
Is it still working?
same...
God, I'm old...
Haha
I sold it some years back. But it's an N64, so yes, it'll still be working. 😊
@@CPS2 I'm glad you sold it, cause I wouldn't want it either.
pc master race?screw that im with the console modders master race :v
Not a fan of N64 but this is really nice and very crafty, took the three other ports out and made a multi tap. That's cool .
This made me smile so hard. You seem like such a bright guy, and your work is astounding! This is remarkable! If I could buy them like this I would! :)
