Replace N64 LED with PS2 controller LED

Post by rootbeerben3 »

I desoldered the LED on my n64 and dropped it. I cant find it anywhere in my room. Since i used a ps2 joystick on my n64 portable, a have a led from the controller. Could a replace the n64 led with it?

The voltage won't burn it out if you put it in backwards. If it doesn't work the first time, switch the legs.
