That TV stand just screams late 90s/early 2000s and I am absolutely here for it.

Which version of the ever drive do you have? The n64 is one of the consoles I don't have an Everdrive for and I can't decide if it's worth it for the newest version or not.

Got that tv stand at a thrift store for $10. Fits perfectly. I got the ever drive x7, yeah it’s the pricer one but you don’t have to reset the console in order to save your file. It works like if you had the original game. Seeing how some of the og games are so pricy it was worth it for me to get it. Been playing Conkers bad fur day and banjo Kazooie. Matter of fact I’ve been meaning to creat a file with games Rare developed. They really did help make the N64 great. Also recommend the wireless controllers

That TV stand is a dream, great find!

I've been putting off getting the N64 everdrive because, admittedly, I'm not a big fan of the console and I own pretty much any game for it that I want. But the everdrives are just so convenient, I own them for a handful of consoles already and I can leave my physical collection alone for the most part.

Not having to reset the console just to save sounds like a big perk, to me. That's the kind of thing that typically gets me to buy the pricier everdrives! Maybe some day I'll get around to the N64 one (and maybe I'll actually play my N64 a bit more because of it....)
