Hey Look! this is our console's start-up! if you dont insert a disk and wait for 60 seconds. the main character from one of our most successful games will magically appear and starts Kicking the 3D "N" Symbol!!!
I still remember flipping a penny constantly in my older brother's room because I sucked at it so bad. It would always go everywhere *but* where my hand was. Well, one day it found its way into the N64 cartridge slot. And since there was no one of getting it out or getting it out, my older siblings blamed me for breaking it as if it wasn't an "accident".
@CynicalBrony i got one no in fact 3 working ones a ps1 a ps2 and original xbox and just bought a game cube my dad has all consoles but the wii/360/ps3
@javacad0 It's not. The N64 Disk Drive was an add on that was only released in Japan. There WAS going to be a US release but I think it was close to the N64's lifespan ending.
@SMGJohn It had a mips R4000 processor, which I consider very powerful even in todays standards. My bet is that huge scale NoCBased MPSoCs multiprocessors/multicomputers are to be build using the MIPS architecture, due to it's small size, low complexity and high flexibility.
@marlls1989 Yes, it could produce better graphics then PS2, I once owned a N64DD very powerful and some of the late games had very good graphics even better then PS2 games
I really wish they would have released this in the US. There could have been ad-on content for so many games. I'm glad Nintendo is allowing DLC on 3DS, hopefully we'll see the ad-ons that were never released for Zelda OoT.
@dirrajnoswal looking at the 64DD article it says it used magneto-optical drives. Those still have nothing to do with CDs, even if they look like mini-CDs in a cartridge - and they were still handled like floppy drives in practice. And 64DD's disks were still limited to 64MB, less than 10% of a CD...
I wish N64 had a start up noise in general like PS1, Xbox, Segas, and all those good ones.. Instead they left it up to the game. The closest we have to a universal start-up noise, those who loved N64, was Epona galloping through Hyrule Field with that CLASSIC piano track and "It's-a me! MAR-i-oo!"
@truthseeker0183 I know, what I'm saying is that the N64 -should've- been CD-ROM based from the start, so Nintendo wouldn't have had to mess with cartridges or silly add-ons like this. The 64DD failed because Nintendo expected consumers to shell out even more cash for something -still- inferior to CD-ROM.
Again, if the N64 had used CD's, they would've never lost all their 3rd party support(which they technically never fully regained), and they would've mopped up the competition easily.
@slightlyoutofreach01 Back then Nintendo refused to use CDs because of the loading times and were easy to copy.This is also the main reason why Nintendo turned Sony down.When the PlayStation was originally going to be the CD ROM drive for the SNES.So in a way you have Nintendo to thank for the PlayStation.Since Sony decided to make the PlayStation into a stand alone console.Nintendo would still use carts now if technology didn't force them to change to discs.
@xboxmodder02 Just as a minor correction, Nintendo did indeed work with Sony to produce a CD-ROM add-on to the SNES to counter the Sega CD, but they ended up dropping Sony in favor of a foreign competitor(Philips). Sony then began work on the Playstation, and Nintendo suee them to prevent it from coming out. The CD add-on project was later canceled entirely, and Philips ended up producing the CDi.
Also, Nintendo finally went with disks after their former (highly conservative) CEO stepped down.
@ApachaiHapachai N64DD Second model of the N64. Disc based. They scrapped it because they didn't think disc based games were the way to go and useless...look where we are now....
Um, no. It wasn't a "second model", it was a disc-drive addon. Nintendo did a disk drive addon before with the Famicom.
They didn't go ahead with the full release because by the time the system would have launched, CD's with many times the capacity of the 64DD disks would be readily available. It would have been an expensive system to roll out only to be have a short shelf life.
It was released only in Japan for a limited time to save face.
@WarpPal the Nintendo 64 DD (disk drive) was only released in japan and it was a commercial failure. also it had the ability to connect to the internet. :D
@Saiyuki2o4 If Nintendo had gotten their heads out of their asses and just made the N64 disk-based to begin with, they'd have easily crushed Sony... or at least they wouldn't have been stomped QUITE as hard.
@Draknfyre if studdied the DD for 6 years. the DD runs on a compaq floppy and it can store up to 80MB. if the expansion pack is in it can go up to 120MB and if it is a cartridge + DD disk combo (like f-zero expansion) and the expansion pack it has a total of 150MB of space. ive opened up a DD cart before. its a standard floppy but with slightly alternated programming.
A normal 3 1/2" floppy cannot store more than 1.38MB of data formatted. So saying it's a "standard floppy with slightly alternated programming" is completely wrong. The medium is similiar, but it's not a "standard floppy". Just like a Zip disk isn't.
TOTAL capacity and actual capacity of released disks are two different things. A standard pc can go up to something like 16GB of RAM depending on OS limitations, but that doesn't mean you have it.
@erik900ful The N64DD attachment (only released in Japan) was disk-based. This is the screen that shows up if you turn on the N64DD and don't put a disk in.
@TightKickflip The N64 only did this if a 64DD, a disk drive sold only in Japan, was attached to the bottom of the N64. Otherwise, they have no startup screen.
@FeNiXwOnG951 an Disk upgrade for the N64 that never got released.
it will had some sort of add-ons to games like master quest and majora's mask for ocarina of time, but since it never got released, master quest got released for the GC and the other add-on, majora's mask, became it's own game :)
i wish i had a 64DD and the games :( i got an emulator for it, but it only had mario paint. THE STUPID ONE!!!! let me explain it; it had a koopa shell catching game (got boring after like 45 seconds, for me anyway). a pixel creating thing where you can draw your own characters and stuff, only one color. (it was fun, though). and then it had all the normal mario paint stuff. but since no one has any roms for the DD, mario paint was the only one in the emulator. >__> it HAD to be mario paint.
Meh il post anyway. If any of you have a N64 not a stupid emulator or Wii unplug your system and look at the bottom. There is a extension port. Thats where the 64DD was suppose to be. It played Dynamic Disks (sorta like floppys) that held add on information and new games. Such as you could create your own courses in F-zero and even Go online. You could create your own N64 Animation with some of the Mario Artist series of games. There is only 9 games for the 64DD with many unreleased.
@crozof This isn't the Nintendo 64. This Is the Nintendo 64DD, The Japan only add-on. It says 64DD in the title, so I don't know why you think this is the N64.
@TheMrCustomlego Very rare Japan only disk drive add on for the n64 it had only 9 games made for it in it's short life span before it was scrapped due to unpopularity,it also had one of the earliest ideas for the Miis tested on it.

Meh il post anyway. If any of you have a N64 not a stupid emulator or Wii unplug your system and look at the bottom. There is a extension port. Thats where the 64DD was suppose to be. It played Dynamic Disks (sorta like floppys) that held add on information and new games. Such as you could create your own courses in F-zero and even Go online. You could create your own N64 Animation with some of the Mario Artist series of games. There is only 9 games for the 64DD with many unreleased.

@crozof This isn't the Nintendo 64. This Is the Nintendo 64DD, The Japan only add-on. It says 64DD in the title, so I don't know why you think this is the N64.

@TheMrCustomlego Very rare Japan only disk drive add on for the n64 it had only 9 games made for it in it's short life span before it was scrapped due to unpopularity,it also had one of the earliest ideas for the Miis tested on it.

@maddywebster95 Well that's because this is The Nintendo 64DD, Not The Nintendo 64. It is a Japan only Disk add-on. It says 64DD in the title....
