ezra long There was an accessory that was only released in Japan, Nintendo 64DD (Disk Drive or Dynamic Disk? i’m not real sure what DD stood for). it was kind of like a hybrid of floppy disks but somehow held more data

[@jaysonlikes]

@@AddableStone13 it stood for disc drive. Not for floppy disc but for cds 💿 so it could try to compete with the PlayStation and DreamCast who were doing CD games which held more space compared to a cartridge

[@cysper4703]

@@jaysonlikes lol idk why Nintendo don't want to use CDs for N64. N64 Could have more bigger games with better textures. But since Nintendo is dumba-- they don't want to use Discs. And they realized they needed it then it's very too late. F--k Nintendo.

[@asdfpoop33921]

@@cysper4703 Nintendo thought that cartridges were the only way to get the smooth texture and (relatively) high graphics at the time. The N64 failed because it released too late, and playstation had already consumed the market during that time.

If it was intentional to be booted on September 11th, then it really begs the question about whether or not these consoles are really worth anything.

[@emilyofjane]

SO THAT’S WHY I NEVER SAW THIS STARTUP SCREEN! Lol I was always so confused when this was included in console startup compilations because my N64 (original model) didn’t have any startup screen; the TV would just say “no signal” until you put in the cartridge. I’m guessing the startup screen is exclusive to the N64DD because it actually has a BIOS to boot from.

[@bulbybuds]

yeah thats exactly it. the famicom disk system also adds a boot screen to the NES, though i assume its more akin to the game boy's or game boy advance's boot screen in that the console doesnt actually have a bios

[@gochem3013]

It would've been nice if you turn on the N64 without the cartridge, this happens. Just look what Sega Master System did if your turn on without the cartridge.
