READ HERE FIRST!

People! I need your help! Yeah, from all of you who can help me with this! I got today a Nintendo 64 Cartridge, the game Perfect Dark. And well... it boots, but you can't play.

This is the problem: There are no files visible in the menu and the game looks like it is empty but if you try to create a new agent it says that the game pak memory is full (Check the video). In the back part of cartridges says: "Do not rapidly turn the power switch on and off-this may cause backed-up game paks to lose your stored game information" I tried that but didn't worked, I reseted the game like a crazy bitch but didn't worked too... I don't own a GameShark and I don't own a controller pak so I don't have anything to play it. I'm asking you for help to see if there is anything to do to fix this WITHOUT a GameShark and WITHOUT any tool for editing the game memory! Just physically, any way to "format" the cartridge.

Anyway, if somebody knows how to reset it with a GameShark, feel free to say how because maybe one day I will get one!

Thanks a lot people! I hope all of you help me!

EDIT: I also tried without using the Expansion Pak and leaving it just with the Jumper Pak, the game itself boots too, and says the same thing so no working, some minutes ago I tried again with the thing of the On-Off but nothing happened. I will try tilting the cartridge.

  • Traducido al español: en ese caso debes usar el controller pak para guardar tu partida en el perfect dark, te lo digo por experiencia propia, porque a mi me paso lo mismo y tuve que comprar el controller pak

    PD: Solo necesitas un controller pak, y si tienes mas de un control de n64, puedes insertar el controller pak en cualquier control del n64 y en el control con el que juegas siempre puedes usar el rumble pak para sentir las vibraciones cuando te golpean, te disparan o cuando tu disparas

  • hahaha no tranquilo, si no tengo problemas con el entendimiento de inglés o español jeje, pero agradezco que te hayas dado el tiempo de traducir y todo jejeje.

    Por lo visto es como lo único que me queda por hacer... voy a buscar uno por ahi, a estas alturas como que los Controller Paks son escasos dada la antigüedad, pero gracias por el dato, tengo dos Rumble Paks pero ningún Controller hahaha

  • the only thing i can tell you, if you own a game shark and place in perfect dark on top of it... when you turn on the console, it will tell you that it doesn't read the expander pak. just a little heads up if you decide to look for one.

  • it actually reads the expansion pak because I own one, the problem is that the internal memory is not working for an unknown reason

  • YO OPINO QUE SIMPLE Y CENSILLAMENTE NOS COMPREMOS OTRO Y FIN DEL PROBLEMA PERO AUN ASI TENGO DUDAS

    ESPERO ME PUEDAN RESPONDER ESTA PREGUNTA SI ME COMPRO OTRO PERFECT DARK (QUE SIRVA) EN MI MISMO N64 LE PASARA LO MISMO?????

  • Yo tengo el mismo problema desde hace años, hasta que al final decidí abrirlo para cambiar la batería y ¡Sorpresa! No hay batería. He investigado un poco y por lo que he descubierto, mi cartucho en particular, guarda la información en una memoria reprogramable no volátil. Puede que lo que nos esté pasando es que esa memoria haya agotado la cantidad de escrituras permitidas. Investigaré para ver si se puede reparar o tendremos que tirar de la memoria en los mandos...

  • yo tengo el mismo problema...

    un dia compré una copia usada de perfect dark (lo compre en el mall chino de santiago xD)... llegue a mi casa ilusionado a jugarlo, pero me lleve la sorpresita. despues de resetear mil veces el cartucho sin efecto, mi hermana lo reseteo 2 veces mas y chachan! se arreglo... estuve un mes jugando sin problemas, hasta que un dia despues de haber jugado una mision, salio error al guardar, lo resetie y se borró todo ... y ahora lloro porque no puedo jugarlo... u_u

  • Hey, if you're still wondering, all you have to do to fix it is take the cartridge apart and change the battery. I had it happen to my copy of perfect dark. It's easy to fix. Just use a pair of pliers if you don't have the right type of screwdriver.

  • amigo una pregunta! ya me consegui un controller pak pero me sale q esta corrupta y quiero saber si eso tiene solucion y si no la tiene pues confirmamelo para botar esa controller pak corrupta

  • @redfield18 Si, al final me fuí por la vía corta y me compré un Controller Pak

  • PUDISTE ARREGLARLO? YA SABES CUAL ERA EL PROBLEMA?

  • y ¿donde se consigue hoy dia un controller pak?

  • It's maybe the backup battery memory, or something else. I had the same problem, tried everything that I could, and end up throwing it away. There was nothing I could do. So I just bought another one on ebay and I'm expecting it to arrive in mail around Friday or Monday. If you're no longer using the N64 expansion pak, you can give it to me.

  • Try replacing the battery backup.

    Open the cart with a gamebit and take out the coin cell and replace with a new one. Some games act crazy when the battery backup goes, most show blank files but some claim a full memory.

    Give it a shot, you might need to de-solder the contact to get the coin cell out though so be careful.
