The Polymega N64 Module EM05 is finally here! After nearly 2 years since its original announcement, the Polymega is capable of playing N64 titles. While the Day 1 experience wasn't the smoothest for me, the Polymega is proving to be a fairly capable way to enjoy the N64 library with only minor hiccups found in demanding titles. If you already own a Polymega, the new N64 module is well worth a look.

Edit: After some more initial testing, the new EM05 module is actively attempting to block repro carts and the RetroStage N64 Blasters. this has affected some retail games such as Robotron 64 and homebrew releases. A new update is in the works to address it.
