World's Smallest Nintendo 64 portable
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- I have fulfilled my destiny of building the World’s Smallest N64 Portable. Want to see an actually good N64 portable? Checkout the N64SP v2 • NINTENDO 64 PORTABLE -...
All N64 Buttons Accounted for:
Left stick click is L. Pressing the right stick click changes the left stick between analog and dpad mode. R and Z are on the corners. The right stick emulates the C buttons.
Yes, this uses a real N64 motherboard and plays real game cartridges.
Other Specs:
3.5” 320x240 LCD Display
1 18650 battery cell which can power it for 1.5 hours
Headphone jack and speakers. The plus/minus buttons on the front are volume increase/decrease
Uses 12V DC barrel jack charger and it can play/charge at the same time
Does not have an expansion pak. I don’t play many expansion pak games, I can live without it. Expansion paks are expensive these days and it would significantly decrease the battery life

“Does your N64 fit in your pocket?” If you asked me in 1997 while I was wearing some JNCOs....yes, yes it does. 😎
We looked cool af back then! Now seeing it at almost 40 it looks so stupid 😂😂😂😂😂
hahahahahaha thats hilarious
hahahahaha rancid green day 182
JNCOS!!! ❤❤❤❤
I do miss my mammoths
I remember making a handheld n64 back in high school using rc car batteries, screen from a portable vhs, and tubberware. Looked awful but it worked
You're an icon for that. A project like this can only go two ways. Very legendary moment or a complete waste of time fused with heartbreak and frustration. I wish I had the patience and mental capacity to pull this off.
Nintendo should buy this man's desing and sell this as "Nintendo 64 Lite" lol, people would actually buy one of these!
Yesss! I want one so bad!
I still have my n64 hooked up and would definitely play cartridge based games in this.
Please get in touch with Nintendo and get this on the market screw the game and watch give is this.
The cartridges are discontinued by nintendo though
@@eihodge oh yeah, right i forgot, i mean it's pretty obvious y'know but sometimes you forget about those little details since even after years and years there's people still playing N64 that i just normalize it
Anybody else remember when these types of portables only existed in photoshopped youtube thumbnails? The scene was probably around in the mid 2000s, but I am really fascinated with the optimization of core components needed to run the system on original hardware. Fantastic job on the system.
You're the Tony Stark of Handhelds
@Tim Gardner You're the Tony Stark of replies.
@Tim Gardner Like I said, you're the Tony Stark of replies.
build that thing in a cave
@@k3tupat1978 with a bunch of scrapes
This is amazing, but the fact that he was able to build it in a cave with a pile of scraps is what makes it all together more inspiring.
That reference doesn't work here
@@quanictheporcupine3210 You don't work here
@@SoCtaker ....ok
@@SoCtaker.... m... m... m.... ml
I understood that reference
Happy holidays and May your joycons never drift my friends
Ay men
mine already did 😭😭😭
My sticks have been drifting for a minute 😭
Just fixed my cousins from that 😂
Lol
“The battery life sucks, it’s uncomfortable to hold, but hey, it fits in your pocket, does your N64?” Lmao. 💪
'bout to shove my whole N64 in my pocket out of spite
fantastic work tho for real
I was going to do that for comparison. Glad I didn't
Yeah
@@GmanModz Hey man Are you planning on selling more g-boy kits?
@@GmanModz i am really asking i will buy one
*Laughs in android emulation* 😎
This is absolutely gorgeous.
I can't wait until gman makes a n64 portable in a everdrive 64 cartridge. 🤞🤞

The n64 was a straight up gaming masterpiece
This genuinely looks like a marketable console, imagine how much Nintendo could sell with this back in the 90s or something.
Oh hell yeah. A console with 3D graphics ON THE GO!?
It might have evolved the scene much faster.
@@InfamousJJ420 wistful... Sihh
Well I think the screen he's using wasn't readily available back then.
Just about everything about this build was literally impossible to make in the 90s
That humble flex though.
>No more joycon drift
On a home assembled franken handheld.
Congratulations, you've made an N64 with Joy-Con drift!
All jokes aside, this is amazing.
boner

Radio
From what I've heard the sticks don't even drift in these projects, like almost ever, so it has something to do with the joycons themselves
@@ColemakDH some drift can be cured with a simple IPA flush
That is awesome. The N64 had so many great games. I regret getting rid of my N64 back then
The amount of dedication and time that must have gone into this is incredible. Amazing work Gman!
To be honest, i would definitely buy 2 of these instantly.
People making their N64's smaller for pockets, when they could just make their pockets bigger for N64's
JNCOs!
You could fit a stock N64 with controller and done games in those pockets lol
That's crazy! I was just looking at jnco's the other day. I had so many pairs as a teen.
Or use an Android to emulate anything you want pretty much. Logic lvl over 9000
I remember in junior high seeing videos of people making portable consoles which absolutely blew my mind and made me want to get into it. Although unfortunately over time certain events made me focus on other things in life so I forgot about it. But after seeing this video is energized me to get back into it, learn the ins and outs, and hopefully one day create a portable of my own!
do it!!
Whaaaaat this is sick!
He needs to sell these
BRO I LOVE YOUR CONTENT
I would absolutely order one, this is awesome.
It’s not sick, it’s ill
Guess the this of which you speak of needs to go see their doctor ;)
The saddest part...I can't just buy this
Someone can make this mass produced as a third party system
@@uv23baby Nintendo would shut them down
@@CJ9007 nintendo won't care about it because it is an 20 year old console
@@camygael Uh, They've shut down plenty of ROM sites that have SNES titles.
Guys don't be sad you could download n64 games on android it's really easy all you need is a n64 emulator and a game rom for example Rayman 2 the great escape best n64 game I've played and I'm still playing it right now
I sure hope Nintendo considers bringing Virtual Console back.
It was a sacrifice they should've never chosen.
Nintendo Employee: its simply impossible
Nintendo: Gman Modz made this in quarantine! WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!
Nintendo Employee: Well i am not Gman Modz
Iron man
@@rossmaxx r/kidsonyoutube
@@plasmagaming1886 what did u mean
@@rossmaxx okay I’ll give a basic explanation for you of three things, one, r/kidsonyoutube is a subreddit where people post comments of kids on the internet posting random things, I ended up seeing your comment with a very unrelated response (being “iron man”) and assumed it was a kid on UA-cam randomly commenting.
@@plasmagaming1886 i don't use reddit much nowadays (phone is running out of space). Also, my comment is not unrelated to the main comment. In iron man there is a dialog (bw obadiah and his scientists) similar to this. I am not a kid i am 16. I started exploring internet after the lockdown started.
whats wild is back in 97 I was hopping in my grandma's blazer and we were renting the N64 and it was so wild at the time
its sureal to imagine that system handheld like that.
Watching this as someone who has been paying close attention to the scene since about 2012 brings warmth to my heart. I haven’t even built my first portable (although that is my goal for this upcoming summer) I know I will not achieve anything near this guy. Congrats, it looks amazing
Good pepe
Rare pepe
Ultra pepe
My favorite part is that the cartrige dosn't stick out on an ugly form.
Like an og gameboy game in a gameboy advance sp😂
@@SOUND_FACTORY exactly
It's a work of art
It kinda fits, with the Nintendo logo etched into the back
You’re a phenomenal electrical engineer. Your work is beyond impressive.
Right before i go to sleep this comes out. sleep can WAIT!!!
I was just about to go to sleep before uploading it too lol
This is so cool. I've never seen someone make a portable that can play physical games like this, only roms. Not to mention how flawless and expensive the finish looks!
This is awesome. If Nintendo made a similar device, I would totally buy. Even if they aren't able to play on the original system, I am still heavily convinced that remaking old systems and selling old games on carts at a reduced rate, would see a large market. Much like records making a come back
This is absolutely incredible. I didn't think this was possible
I hope Peter Knetter finds this
That guy is super annoying to be honest
@@RuviaPawz why do you say so
@@RuviaPawz love his content, find him super charming
I like him but he clickbait's so much
Had the pleasure of seeing this in person recently.
Definitely the most interesting portable N64 I've seen. Great job!
“It fits in my pocket. Does yours?”
Me: No. I don’t have one.
10/10
where did you go man?
Honestly I just want my switch to have more popular n64 titles. But this is awesome.
Take notes kids. This is a gamer.
anyone who plays video games is a gamer
No
I love it! This is the coolest scene.
Imagine decades from now we'll have "mini console" amulets that hardlight-project games in front of us. You take the amulet and run it over the bottom of a disc, and boom. It's saved to the amulet and ready to play anytime, anywhere.
peter knetter will remember that...
The nintendo 64 pantry edition
these types of engineers are the ones nintendo should have as employees, not the fools who designed the wiiu 😂
They failed forward. The result is the Switch. No Switch without the WiiU experience.
The Wii U was a great console. It was just ahead of its time! 😤
The only real problem with the Wii U is that it was too little of a technical upgrade.
Wouldn't the hands on the console, move the cartridge around? Still, really awesome.
It has a grippy connector and a small cartridge holder on the back, but you still need to be cautious when you play.
"i didnt want to use any techniques not available to older record holders to make it fair"
also
"i used new joycon sticks to make it smaller"
You know what's a cooler idea, something like the Hyperkin Smartboy but for all console cartridge games! 😊
This is a masterpiece - and here I am trying to fit a Pi3 into a Gameboy to make a Gameboy Zero :D
Nise
Nise
I know everyone says that it’s been done before, but you gotta hand it to the people for actually achieving something that seems so...delicate.
All fun and games until the joycon analog sticks get drift
He got it so much smaller than the other ones before him. AND it looks 1000x cleaner too. Man that's sooo sick.
You should make the Switch into a clamshell-design!
Honestly would love something like that!
Yes!
i'd love this in black so the case isn't so distracting. really nice
WOOWWWW Do you will sell it?
Even youtubers have spelling mustakes eh?
@@haijehiemstra2883 Yeah, yutobers will maek miskates
@@haijehiemstra2883 yeap a lot of thim do
@@haijehiemstra2883 Well, he's obviously not a native speaker...
@Sonic Hope Oi Sonic :D
The amount of effort put in to learn the circuit you might as well went to a 3rd party PCB manufacturer with a revised design, sold the PCBs as a kit.
Thank goodness we have big brains like yourself, never stop please!
So we can just remove buttons... Disqualified.
I have to say my favorite part about the device is that the cartridge itself becomes part of the grip when holding the device. Pulls double duty.
Hey Gman, how can I commission you to make one of these for me? I really want one...
after 40 years...
I present to you 'World's Smallest Ps5 portable'
i can imagine somebody doing this to the ps2
But then the disk drive will be too big
I thought it was called the psp...
@@michaellanman8427 more like the playstation portable 2
@@saincx0m9 i meant that psp basically was a portable ps2. And the "Playstation portable 2" you mentioned is basically the Vita.
@@michaellanman8427 ah alright
The fact that you used Switch joysticks is terrifying
It looks amazing! Granted battery life is on the low end, but how much does it actually last?
Damn this is such a genius idea with how shitty n64 emulation is. I wish I had mad skills like this😂
Mario be like : CAN I HAVE IT
これは欲しい!
凄い技術ですね
While not practical for long-term use, I can imagine devices like this becoming handy for collectors - for checking functionality of used cartridges in markets and auctions etc.
Me not knowing what anything means, but still watching cause it was on my recommendation:

Why are you gay
@@wingler-dm4hk who says he's gay?
He is gay
@@wingler-dm4hk This is UA-cam. Not InsultTube. Be nice.
Haha same man but I find it interesting.
I would buy this. Had no idea these freaking geniuses made handheld consoles of my childhood. SO glad I stumbled across this ❤
I’m honestly curious to know the price now.. if you plan to make these for commissions that is
bro i love how the game goes in so perfectly
0:55 G-MAN MENTIONED
HALF-LIFE 3 CONFIRMED.
Make a portable gamecube, and call it the gamesquare. Because it would probably look like a square
Who misses him
👇
You're a genius! Thanks to people like you the love for retro is still alive, i have a working n64 and would love to own this someday!
You’re here because of Unbox Therapy aren’t ya?
More like, Skin Theory
Imagine Nintendo releasing this as the direct successor to the Gameboy in the late 90s.
This would have changed history.
Skin theory
I love how this man is just spitin pure facts what he did, no drama that something didnt work or how he overstep some problem, for this man this is just process of making this. He just tells us the final pitch.
I wish people stop destroying original consoles for these things
Good luck playing your orgiinal console when you have zero controllers to access it due to zero reproduction and speed runner buy out. This could save casual retro N64 gaming
@@ImOnA_PlainThere are companies that make 3rd party N64 controllers for cheap.
imagine this dude going back in time giving this to nintendo and they just blow the portable gaming into a huge area
I didn’t even think this guy still made portable consoles
Well this is another level, my n64 portable is a dell laptop, one of those with just 32gb non renewable storage, with a 1.6 celeron, and a bluetooth controller, and just for gaming purposes and just old games and emulators, is a beast
I remember seeing those super chunky portables back in the day and being super impressed... but this... this is dream a come true.
I just saw it in person! So cool GMan
Hey bro it was nice meeting ya at MGG so glad i got to hold it and use it in person
I want one of these I still play my Nintendo 64 to this day
No you don’t. It’s best to just leave the Nintendo 64 the way it is rather than messing it up.
When the game cartridge is bigger then the console
Can’t wait til he makes a switch portable
I love how the game is bigger than the console itself
Bro really dropped a bunch of ultra portable home consoles using OEM parts and disappeared
there's a limited amount of n64s now and you do this... still cool as shit and really impressive tho
This is the defenition of when size is all that matters
The quality looks awesome unlike most others iv seen be done nice work ❤
Man, you are the real Nintendo's master...
Peter kneeter holds the biggest n64 portable
This is insane 100x better then any crap for sale on Aliexpress and a real legit console technically.
This guys a damn genius
I know everyone needs a hobby but people gutting and maiming so many N64's is heartbreaking
I can understand about 5% of what you say, the rest is over my head. You are extremely smart.
