Anyone want an N64 clock cartridge?
I have previously made a clock inside an N64 (http://forums.benheck.com/viewtopic.php ... ck#p433636" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). However I know that I can put the entire clock within the cartridge, and have it be battery or wall powered. Anyone interested?

you could probably power it directly from the cartslot of the n64 depending on how you do the clock

Well I could, but then you would be powering the board as well.
Re: Anyone want an N64 clock cartridge?
Uhhhh, why not just remove the portion of the board that the chips are on (leaving the pins) and just solder to the ones that give off voltage?
Re: Anyone want an N64 clock cartridge?
I meant the N64 board. To have the clock be on, the n64 would also be on, and assuming you are like most people, you will want your clock to be on for awhile, meaning the N64 board will be on for extended periods of time, which is not good for it. But yeah, it would be easy to power it from a 12v slot pin. Just not smart in the long run.

every n64 is over a decade old now, and i doubt being on extended periods at idle (eg not playing a game) would do anything negative to an n64Bush wrote:I meant the N64 board.

N64s can be had for dirt cheap. We should try this.
