About this deal

PS: don't waste your time or knuckles trying to make a PSU connector fit, it won't, I'd be willing to bet you. Capable of running off anything from 100-250V, all you need is a socket adaptor and you’re good to go. That said, I’m a massive fan of unique, no-cut mods like this one, so that’s what I wanted to promote here.

So many things these days are mass produced, not designed to last, and make as cheap as possible for as much money as possible. I found that a simple mains 3-wire cable is good for the job, since those 3,3 V pins are interconnected, as are the three negatives. Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. The original N64 power supplies are probe to failing thanks to their voltage protection circuits dying.

The ratings/reviews displayed here may not be representative of every listing on this page, or of every review for these listings. I’ve read some horror stories about console failures and I’m looking to preemptively stop any problems. TIP: If you’re not getting power after putting everything together, try cutting some of the plastic off of the plug of the power adapter to make the barrel a little longer. Ehh this will work well, as soon as I get the plug figured out, or I could solder a PCIE plug to the internal pins, and use one of those on the PSU (obviously corrected for the necessary rails). First, I think the clear plastic back would be an excellent fit for those Trogg Tech transparent cases.

I did several things to them and it seems hopeless, they're square and don't fit, and not the kind of plastic that you can fit with heat - it's just frustrating, because it's so close.

Be VERY careful not to let any of the other wires you're using touch each other, or anything but the pin they're supposed to be connecting to. Turning off the personalised advertising setting won’t stop you from seeing Etsy ads, but it may make the ads you see less relevant or more repetitive.

For those unaware… this flexibility is thanks to the almost universal adoption of the flyback topology switching supply. Engineerd by 12Game the AC Adapter for the N64 is the perfect replacement to power up Nintendo's Classic 64-bit gaming console with 100-245 volts of Juice!

This means you may need to trim back some of the rubber of the plug so it will push all the way in to the jack to make good connection.
