i noticed the original N64 heatsink. i highly recomend replacing it with smaller computer heatsinks. it'll save tons of space

Don't forget that if you don't have the memory expansion pack, you will have to use a jumper pack.

I thought you were still going to use the pictures in your signiture, instead of changing them to links.

were not talking about the pack were talking about the card that goes in the controller. but anyway my project was actually approved by my teacher(after many questions about my topic wich he had no clue about) but i will be entering it then. Does any body have any taces of the n64 controller.
