My N64 is over a quarter of a century old, as are its controllers. Is there a way to bring those controllers into 2023 and make them wireless and compatible with other systems?

In this video I take a look at the new N64 controller mod kit by 8BitDo, a company who have built a strong reputation for delivering some of the best third-party controllers available. I'll be unboxing the kit, showing you how to install it, pairing it with my computer, configuring it in Windows and RetroArch, playtesting it and then offering you my opinion at the end. The mod kit is available from 8BitDo here:

On this occasion the product reviewed was purchased by myself. Many of my review videos are based on product sent to me for evaluation by Amazon as a member of the Amazon Vine programme. I was invited into the programme in 2019, having been a contributer of reviews on Amazon since 2003. During those twenty years I have carried out over 1,000 reviews and was a Top 25 reviewer until Amazon discontinued the Hall of Fame leaderboards. I get no financial incentive for my reviews, nor do I have any contact with the manufacturers. I have no time constraints on using the product so can spend as long as I like getting to know a product. All of the opinions in my reviews are entirely my own, and I can assure you that I will be just as likely to tell you the flaws of a product as I am the positives. Thanks for watching.
