You can't just tease a transparent LTT screwdriver and not mention it! It looks dope!
-
I REALLY wish that they made that for the switch.
-
this aged perfectly
-
I still love the look of transparent tech. We had 2 gray N64 controllers and 2 transparent controllers and we fought over the transparent ones
-
Ahh, sneaky dropping in of a prototype leather backpack and a clear ltt screwdriver
-
The modular PSU of the N64 is great. It enables people like me to use a Japanese N64 in the UK using an official PSU and no stepdown.
-
This brings me back
-
this title didn't age so well
-
I hate the idea of forever leaving things in boxes. Value is held in the usage and enjoyment of a toy/game, not simply its pristine existence on the shelves of a bunch of collectors.
-
The extra $100 you slipped us went towards Bell's controller "modification".
-
They won't cancel you for the unboxing, but... >:}
-
Seeing how delicate Linus was being with that registration form makes me feel like I'm in a different timeline
-
I lost it when you noticed D Brand stole your color scheme for the box 😂 please never have a falling out with these guys it's great
-
5:36 It may have still been a manufacturing cost saving measure as the only region locking on the N64 is a physical tray at the bottom of the cartridge slot that can be easily swapped out at the factory along with the attachable power supply depending on which region it's going to. And of course now there are 3D printed region free trays that just remove the various shaped indents that each region's cartridge slot had.

I had the purple version as a kid. I knew the other colours existed, but they were the ones like hens teeth to find, and I never saw any of them (maybe that's why it's the opposite now). I also remember playing golden eye 4p on a friend's tiny 14" TV. Terrible experience but great fun. I went from a NES to N64, with an og Gameboy in between
-
It‘s basically impossible that the controller has stick drift due to the way it works. What most likely happened is that the controller was not centered when it was inserted and a wrong null position was set. You can reset that with a button combination or by unplugging the controller.
-
I got the N64 in '98, it was a complete surprise because we didn't have money to buy a console at all and it wasn't Christmas. My dad worked at a video store and they were throwing it away because it wouldn't power on. He dug it out of the dumpster after work and fixed it, it was just a dirty power button or something simple like that.Some of my best memories with him are playing OoT for the first time and figuring it all out together.
-
This is a trend that seriously needs to come back. Give us those sweet translucent chassis back!
-
Maybe Bell's controller was pluged in while he was holding the joystick to the left and thus that was calibrated as center. You can re-calibrate at any point with L+R+start.
-
I have both the original color N64 and the version seen in this video. One of my favorite systems of all time!
