Interact's "DexDrive" is an old PC-to-console interface that would allow you to store and manage your Nintendo 64 game saves on your Windows 95 or 98 computer by way of a special serial adapter. You could use the DexDrive to make backup copies of your saves, but where this device really shined was trading and sharing your saves with other players and downloading saves from them to try out on your games.


This opened up all sorts of opportunities for trading ghost data in racing games, "100%" files in adventure games, and things like cheat codes. It also, through third party utilities, would allow for things like save game hacking so that you could upload your saves, hack your save file, and then reload your save to have a maxed out Gauntlet Legends wizard for example.


Due to the age of this device Draco doesn't test it out in this video but he does explain how it works, complete with a sample memory card, and also goes through the other contents of the box.
