Just wanted to say that this series has inspired me to buy an N64; I always wanted one as a kid and had to get by watching my friend play his. Now I'll be fixing up one i just ordered and sharing some 90s nostalgia with my kids.
That’s really awesome!! Beyond happy to hear that I have inspired you to get a n64!! I hope you and your kids get many, many hours of enjoyment out of your new N64!!🐺🐺🐺🐺😁😁😁😁
as you near the end of the video and you test it im screaming into the screen "you forgot the jumper pack" lo and behold thats just what you did and remembered later on... oops o well at least you got hdmi on it now, making a classic system look even better
Thank you!! The HDMI installation in the shell and all the shell modifications are in the next video of this series: th-cam.com/video/vbSM6PiXCTA/w-d-xo.html I used some 3D printed parts and didn’t have to cut anything. 🐺🐺😁😁
@@wolfmanrepairs that's great! I've been researching HDMI mods since I ordered an N64 and it seems this one gets a lot of hate, but I assumed it's overblown. How's the sound quality through the HDMI mod? I should've asked that before ...sorry!
@@wolfmanrepairs thank you for settling my fears! This seems like a steal for the price... hopefully your link is an affiliate link so you can get some credit for the sale.
No problem any time!! 😁 It’s really a good deal if you just want HDMI output. I think the more expensive ones have more features and higher resolution but this one works great!! I’m not sure if AliExpress does affiliate links. Something I will have to look into🐺🐺🐺😁😁😁
Oof, hard to watch the bad solder job at the start. It was obvious you had too much solder on the tip. You should have tined the pins on the chip first, then placed the ribbon, then you can solder it without any solder on the tip.
Yeah I learned a lot with this one for sure! It probably didn’t help that the pins were a bit oxidized!! Thanks for the tip!! I will have to do that next time!!🐺🐺😁😁

A joy to watch so herculean an effort be dashed by a black screen then rescued with an innocent correction. Oh so relatable. Great job, Nick!🤘
Thank you!! I feel like this sorta thing happens to me all the time!!🤣🤣🐺🐺
Finally we got the HDMI mod video :) And now for a nice chasis for "Crusty" :)
Yes!! Hopefully it was worth the wait!! The shell video is being edited as we speak so stay tuned🐺🐺🐺🐺😁😁😁

I thought I heard something!! Yeah I can’t believe I forgot the jumper pack and it took me so long to realize it!! 🐺🐺😁😁
Great job.
Thank you!! 🐺🐺😁😁
Great video !! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it!!🐺🐺😁😁
Great job!
Thank you!! 🐺🐺😁😁
Great video but you didn’t show the rest of the installation. What do you do to fit the board in the shell and what did you do with the hdmi out?
Thank you!! The HDMI installation in the shell and all the shell modifications are in the next video of this series:

How does the HDMI output look on a 4k screen?
It looks really nice!! Miles away from the composite output!! 🐺🐺😁😁

It sounds really good too. I’m not sure if there’s a big difference between composite sound vs the HDMI though. 🐺🐺😁😁
