N64 Cartridge adapter for Seta Aleck 64

[yosai]

@twistedsymphony Do you know if the Aleck64 control panel will fit into NNC cabinet? Any info where to find one?

There are a few on ebay at the moment.

Thank you, Yosai but they're expensive if compared to Tops Game in Japan. I wonder if there is other less expensive source and located in US.

Just to make certain,
There are NO 64 carts that will work with this board using just the jamma edge?

Yes it will fit a NNC, your best source to find one is Tops. there are no cheap domestic sources AFAIK.

no KNOWN 64 carts.
it's unlikely but given that this thing has existed for all of a few days how would anyone know?

On my design is no cut out , so you can place it wherever you like

Thank you for confirming that it'll fit to NNC. I'll get the panel from Tops.

I'd be interested in this project. Though I wonder how this thing controls or if a "special cp" could be made for it. N64 controller was, and still is unique for its time.

Good stuff! Glad to see this happening!

Thanks again @twistedsymphony & @brizzo
It's working great with original carts. Unfortunatly it's a no go for Everdrives (at least my old Krikzz V2, don't know the others)

 

[twistedsymphony]

NICE! I'm still waiting for mine to arrive (how is shipping from Canada to Italy faster than Canada to USA? lol)

Curious why the Everdrive doesn't work. hopefully we can crack that nut, or its something already solved in newer versions.

Is there a way to play the aleck games on an n64?

yes, there are patched ROMs floating around that you can use to load up Aleck64 games on an Everdrive.

I now have more adapters in stock, and those who decided to pre-order their packages went out today

 

[Darksoft]

I want one. PM sent.

 

[Bad_Hambre]

Now I just need to find me an Aleck 64 pcb.

Me too!

I was about to consider putting up my Magical Tetris pcb, and realized it is not quite the same.....

I designed a cart housing that is free to download on thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5407426

it includes both a normal cart back as well as a version specific to the N64 adapter.

Also just like my other cart housing designs each half is also able to mate with the opposite half of an original cart housing.
