- Ever wondered how to make your own Nintendo 64 reproduction cartridges? Now you can, and it’s easier than you might expect! You could be playing romhacks, fan-translations, and obscure titles within minutes with this new tech. Thanks for watching!
Head over to RetroStage’s website to get your own N64 Blaster and Retro Blaster Programmer: retrostage.net/
They also sell all 5 CIC chips, and the translucent cartridge cases seen in this video. :)

Animal Crossing English Rom: For legal reasons I cannot directly link to any game roms, and you should always own the game in question if you plan to use a rom/emulation. That being said, if you are interested in the specific build of Animal Crossing which bypasses the N64 internal clock, you will likely need to search for something like “Everdrive 64 compatible Animal Forest”. Please be aware that the game may need a donor EEPROM to save progress.

Thanks for watching, everyone! What games/translations/romhacks would you like to see on a real cartridge? :)
Nintendrew Hey Nintendrew!!! :) I havent heard from you in a while. ;( Anyways, do you like Rugrats?
Oh sure, I've watched my fair share of Nick/CN cartoons haha
Nintendrew Awesome!!! :) Also I loved this video!!! 👍 I drew Tommy and Chuckie from Rugrats for a video on my TH-cam and if you like, you can go check it out! :) You seem big as DanTDM or PewDiePie for some reason! XD
Is there a SNES version?
Nintendrew SUPER RELEASIO 64!!!!!!!!PLS!!!!!!!
Finally, I can get my own copy of Waluigi's Taco Stand.
Same here
And the pricey box!
Should've been your personalized copy of sm74
@@Qwert2763 the damn game aint personalized
Wow
Thanks for the love! Yeah, fun stuff, for sure.
John Riggs: RIGG'd Games I love your channel
I’m subscribing to you and Nintendrew
If he didn't shout you out I was going to 😂🤣😂
Imagine doing this with a creepypasta romhack and selling it on an alley at night.
Damn.
You shouldn't have done that.
*HELL YAH*
Oh cool so now I can sell bootlegs to Retro Game Stores.
So they think they're getting Super Mario 64 but they're actually getting Bowser's Dank Rave Party 3.
LeoYoshi54321 I wouldn’t even be mad.
I just died
Much better than SM64 tbh
good
I'lL tAkE yOuR eNtIrE sToCk
Really hope this encourages people to make more n64 rom hacks and translations.
Exactly!! Mario Paint can be real!
Chaz Peddicord maybe even homebrews
I'd like at least more compatibility fixes
Therix where? ?????
I wanna hack Majora's Mask but I don't have a computer
"Without further ado"
>immediately shows ten second intro
>and then does a shoutout
That is so cool! :D
Nathaniel Bandy Hey Fellow Nintendo Dude! Sup? :)
I would finish my comment but I'm fainti...
Now we can play Super fidget spinner 64 on a real n64! ;D
Nathaniel Bandy YO!!!
Hey
Great job as always Drew! Keep up the great work, The topics you choose for your videos and how you go about explaining and breaking it down is always well done.
love people like you that are keeping the N64 alive! rock on and keep up the awesome videos!
This guy makes great content. I'm glad his channel is growing
MrGencyExit64 *15
I've only watched a couple of this guys vids but he has terrific production quality, fairly entertaining/relative content, and far from the worst personality/presence. I think he deserves a lot more subscribers.
Keep it up. Subscribed
Oh hey I just found your channel. Im just starting with TH-cam so channels like yours are a huge inspiration for me
Neat! I might need to try this one day instead of buying repros of rom hacks online :P
I always wanted a copy of animal forest. I never actually bothered to look up any gameplay of it. I'm amazed at the graphics on it for an n64 game.
always find myself comin’ back to your channel, Nintendrew! Thanks a bunch for the top tier content 🙏🏻
All of this is totally keeping the N64 legacy and classic timeless games alive. LOVE IT!!!!
you have 1 of the best and most unique game room setup tastefully done and clean. especially the mag rack please do a tour
Im loving these N64 videos dude, keep em up! also you got me wanting to try this out so bad, ill have to look into it : )
I'm usually all for trying to get the original equipment above all else, but this is a great option if you want to play fan translations or super rare and expensive games that you don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on without using an everdrive. Really good stuff my man, you just earned a new sub. :)
Great vids like always. I love your 64 vids. so much nostalgia.
Discovered your channel today. Been watching for hours now, amazing content, subscribed. Keep up the good work!
I've been looking for a place that sells translucent green cartridges for years... Thank you so much for the link to this store. I have shed a tear of joy!
Man, you deserve so many more subs... you upload quality vids
I found out in the description there's one for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive. Now I can play Sonic 3 Complete on real hardware!
Where do you get the Sega Genesis one? I can't find it on the website.
Yeah, when I went there it said those were coming soon.
Or the Mortal Kombat Trilogy thing that was made for Genesis.
The SNES Man
Sonic 3 Complete is a rom Hack.
An amazing rom Hack.
*crazy bus*
Awesome, this would be great for when Banjo-Kazooie Returns comes out.
I had no idea this was a thing. My life just got 30 percent better.
Miles Away I find you again wow
And then Valkyrie finds me in a random comment section
Them games dont work with that PCB matter of fact no hacks work on those mybe 1 hack .N64 has 4MB to start with so the Expansion adds another 4MB making the console use a total of 8MB) the extra Ram is only accessed if instructed to do so, while alot of hacks work anyway on the N64 some don't because the ROM was expanded and the console can't load all the data even with the extra ram... forget retrostage should get New N64 programmer/PCB's coming very soon these are much cheaper an can hold up to 512mbit memory (64mb) www.mortoffgames.com/files/TheN64projectbyRetroCircuits.pdf
This demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of how the N64 works. Alternatively, you may not be as clear as you intend, in which case, I apologize if I misunderstood.
First, yes - the N64 has a maximum of 8MB of RAM. However, the games are not 'loaded' into RAM in order to run; because cartridges are essentially daughterboards interfacing directly with the N64 hardware, the ROM data is accessed directly. The RAM is for loading things like textures, which is why we'll never see a truly impressive HQ mod capable of running on real hardware - the N64 simply can't handle the data throughput required. *thoughtfully* Though I do wonder whether 8MB is the actual limit for the N64 architecture - if not, it may be possible for fans to create expanded RAM carts to ALLOW things like HQ mods. Hmm...
Secondly, most ROM hacks are tested on emulators, which work on a sort of "good-enough" mentality. Emulators aren't designed to 100% accuracy to the hardware they emulate, and just because it runs on an emulator, doesn't mean it will run on real hardware.
Dang, sounds cool! Great video by the way!
Good to know. I get to play awesome ROMs on my system just from this programmer! Great video!!
I need this in my life.
So where did you get the colored casing from?
Same site! They sell purple and blue cases for $5 each. :)
Thanks! Might want to add it to the description or something though... :p
Yeah, good point
where can i buy those colored cartridges? thanks
Didt you read comment above yours he said Same site! They sell purple and blue cases for $5 each.
Hey Nintendrew
you are so professional about technology and nice to meet you :)
Thats awsome you gave credit to the man that introduced you to it. It shows class. RETRO FOR LIFE!!!!
Sweet! Now i can get my games back that where stolen by my little sisters friends.
Super smash bros., starfox64 and mario kart 64
Pay backs a bitch
Those horrible kids. I hate little kids
Whenever I click on one of your videos without reading the channel name I always for a split second think you're ChadTronic.
I just remembered this video because I was thinking it would be pretty sweet to have my own copy of Smash Remix to play wherever. Now this video will be helpful 👀
Great gaming room. I love the magazine rack you have, need to set something similar up!
I went to the website to buy one, it says discontinued. New version coming soon. I hope so. I want one.
Country Lyricist its back with new one

Awesome tip! Thank you for sharing! All the items seem pretty affordable for this project. :D
Hey Drew sorry I’m a year plus late but I just tripped upon your YT page thanks for the great video it’s very simple and easy to follow and Repros are something that I’ve been debating getting into. I made sure to hit that subscribe button and I look forward to more your videos!
Great, time for eBay to make "authentic" N64 games
Hey, if i find conkers bad fur day repro that looks identical to the real one,im buying it
Why is this unlisted?
Thanks for the heads up 😜
first time I've ever heard of Nintendrew. Subscribed instantly after watching this. pretty cool stuff!
This earned you a subscriber, sir! Interesting process indeed!
The n64 is the best
Sorry...got distracted by all the cool stuff in the background!
SUBSCRIBED!!! Definitely gonna buy the blaster to make some physical rom hacks!
Great production quality. Keep it up
nintendrew you're the best u should have a let's play channel
Peter Kazavis I agree.
Only worth it, if you can put more than one rom per cartridge, might as well just get the everdrive 64
Probably the best Nintendo TH-cam channel
You rock man! Thanks for making a video on this!
I swear to god, if the "Notification Squad" comes I'll lose it.
Miles Away Notification squad where u at
Let's bring in the ENTIRE NOTIFICATION UNION.
Hey Nintendrew!!! :) Do you like Rugrats?
I subscribed as soon as I saw that dope magazine shelf haha
I just found your channel, and i love it.
Thank you so much! Very helpful. Earned a Sub!
Dude this is amazing oh my god I have to try this
This was made on my birthday! Also this youtube video is good as allways
Double points for Animal Forest! I've always wanted a physical cartridge.
Is there any way to solve this problem? Some cartridge that has the internal clock... I don't know...
Animal Forest is the only N64 game that utilized an internal clock. So you can’t just gut one from another cartridge.
Man, i didn't know that something like this actually existed, incredible
Well this is AMAZING!
Now I can write translated roms and play them on N64!

Oh WOW ! That sounds sooo cool !!
I'm not sure how i got here from vice news , but I'm not complaining! This is cool great video
I LOVE my N64! By far the best Nintendo system I've ever bought. I still have my original one from back in the 90's, how ever it died and i bought a new one in the early 2000's(still got that one too). Plus i also have my brothers from when he was younger .... I have all of my games from the 90's, my brothers games, and the games that we're at my Grandma's house(recently acquired those) plus a few others that I've bought online recently ..... Favorite Game = 007 GoldenEye
That is super cool. Great video
Cool video! You got yourself a new sub!
Awesome video and soon in the future I can not wait for n64dd disk games too if possible
Basically impossible. At least for repros. You could take a cheaper game and make it more expensive, but buying new diskettes? Impossible. Literally impossible. Also much like writing to N64 dev carts it’d muck up preservation, which is a big no-no.
Cool video man!
Very cool stuff. A few days ago I stumbled across the video John Riggs put made about them, but I haven't been able to find what the game compatibility is like compared to something like the Everdrive 64.
As far as I can tell, it's nearly identical. :) There's a 32MB rom size limit, but otherwise I haven't found anything that doesn't work on the blaster board that does work on the ED.
That's awesome, thanks for the reply! I'm definitely going to get one and try it out then!
Huge eye opener for me.
I just discovered your channel and it's amazing man, I have a question, can you make the same cartridge to different games as many times as you want?
Thanks bro needed this!
This is really cool! I've been mulling over picking up a few repro carts (OoT Master Quest sounds like it'd be cool to have), but this is an excellent alternative. I am curious, if you're allowed to say, which translation of Animal Forest are you using? The one's I've seen are mostly translated, but there's still bits and pieces that haven't. Did you find a fully translated version?
I've seen a couple inventory items that remain untranslated but thats about it. More info in desc. ;)
Very nice, Seems something like I would wanna do
i miss my n64 😢 so many memories
your magazine rack is so freakin cool
Congrats for the awesome content. Q: can you load original cartriges to the computer emulator from this usb device?
Great Vid, Nintendrew! Do those transparent shells come with gamebit screws or just philips?
That helps me a lot, i'm going to do this on a Creepypasta theme mario 64 that simpleflips played, and sold to some stranger XD
I hope i get something on the internet...
You showed a dreamcast in your opening so I subscribed
ayy love John Riggs!
I love this channel
Holy crap, Might have to pick one up.
I made my channel trailer and got inspiration from your intro. :)
THANKS FOR THIS AMAZING VID I LOVE IT!
EDIT:sorry my caps lock was on
Me using this to make a reproduction cartridge of Smash Remix: (Laughs maniacally) FINALLY!
Thank you for opening my eyes to this, am I able to write my own code and make my own games with this?
Yes
Drew. Do you have a good source and/or info of how to get the artwork to make our own good quality repro labels (not buy) for the N64 Cart's?
Cheers! Fantastic work and TH-cam channel.
This is the Half Assed Approach to Foundation Repair of TH-cam gaming tutorial videos.
This is awesome im so subscribing
wow this is awesome!!
thanks for letting me know how to put a nintendo 64 game i made on a nintendo 64 cartridge
Though it's an expensive process, it also looks fun
Holy shit my prayers have been answered, now I can make home brew games!
This is awesome! I'll be able to get games I can't find anywhere else or cost a fortune online! Not to mention, playing the games on actual hardware instead of dealing with emulator follies ("WTH? The targets on Target Smash are tiny!").
This is amazing!
Very interesting video! Do you know if retrostage also ships to Europe? (and if its compatible for PAL consoles.)
Now I can make a legit cartridge for Super Mario 420. Just what I needed in my life.
That's pretty cool!
