Homebrewing N64 games suddenly interested me, so I was curious how the N64 would perform on this classic test - pretty impressed! I'm just modifying the frame buffer directly. It renders with 64 iterations (tehe) at a resolution of 80x60. Here's a rom: http://www.mediafire.com/file/iu3imya4oycctdn/mandelbrot64.n64/file

Move: stick
Zoom: A/B

I was going to make the Z button "focus" and crank up the resolution for a still render, but the emu crashes with whenever I try to run this version for no reason I can tell.
