I don't see many posts here about the N64 and it doesn't look like there is an N64 community on lemmy.world It's the console I have the most nostalgia for and I have over 130 games in my collection. I'm currently playing a ROM hack called SM64: Beyond the Cursed Mirror. It has some pretty challenging platforming but it is fun.

Ive been babying my N64 lately. Ive got it hooked up right now and I picked up a flashcart so I can try some romhacks, as well as a blueretro USB controller adapter. Its been pretty fantastic. Im just waiting for my upscaler to arrive so I can have some slightly nicer visuals.

Also, on the topic of flash carts, being able to use roms with the anti-aliasing disabled has been quite interesting. Good lord, the dithering!

My only other challenge now is finding which romhacks work on hardware and which are too much for it.
