  • Nintendo 64 - Pokémon Pikachu Edition.
    In this video I restore this Nintedo 64 which was very yellowed and had some problems with reading cartridges/games. In 2000, a new housing variant followed in the blue and yellow Pokémon design with a Pikachu figure on the top right and a Poké Ball as an on/off switch. Pikachu's right foot serves as a reset button. There was also a correspondingly colored controller with the lettering Pokémon, unfortunately I haven't been able to buy it yet. To open the console, I need a tool called game bit. Such screws can be found in many Nintendo consoles. I cleaned the plastic and used method called retrobrighting to remove the yellowing from the plastic.

    Great work.Not sure I had seen such a N64 existing before.Great results.

    Great restoration as always. First impressions, I saw that it seemed to be wider than a N64 normally is then you opened it. I feel Nintendo could have really done something with all that space left over.

    • @restoreeverything8654
      @restoreeverything8654  2 роки тому

      Yes, the case is a lot bigger than the normal N64. Unfortunately, this is not of much use. mainly air and a small circuit board to light up Pikachu's cheeks. that's it 🤷‍♂️

    Wow good job! I'd say you're really good at restoring things!
    I remember that Pikachu N64 console. It's pretty cool. I used to have it when I was a preteen. I got it for my 11th birthday in April 2001 but sadly I decided to get rid of it by throwing away at age 15 in 2005. I kinda missed it.

    Seems you had much better luck with the submersion method than I did, I tried it with my really dark blued Pikachu N64 and it caused white splotching all over it, the red on the PokeBall turned white and the blue cover edges turned white, not sure what I did wrong but I guess I now have a funky looking N64 haha

    Amazing work!! I'm just starting restoration myself; what type of paint would you recommend using for Pikachu's nose?

    • @restoreeverything8654
      @restoreeverything8654  Рік тому

      I use leftovers paints from my cars to be honest.
      But also sometimes I use specific paint for modelling.
