Hi there, Thanks for taking the time to reply. What exacly do you mean when you say are they RGB ready? are we talking about which ones ome with the ariel connector and not the scart?? Thanks again Aaron
Only the FRA model, I know that my "Standard N64 console" is one of thoses and the RGB mod works fine Can you post picture of your pack please gibba ?
Hi there ElBarto, Thak you for taking the time to reply. In refference to some photos, that will not be a problem i will try and take some tonight when i get home from work and then i will post them on this thread. Basically i am trying to collect all PAL consoles and games and accessories so i am trying to get some help to find out about items i do not know of, and try and learn more about the whole "N64 stuff" as a whole thanks again, Aaron (Gibba)
No PAL console does RGB, at least in the UK. Japanese ones do, with modification. I think some French ones are supposed to be modifiable. If anyone has any info on that, I wouldn't mind looking into it sometime myself.
There are two N64 Pikachu Editions. One is blue/yellow, the other is orange/yellow. Not sure if it was sold in Europe, though... → http://i28.tinypic.com/301pugh.jpg
Hi there Greenchu, Thank you very much for taking the time to comment. I did not know of that one. I will have to look into it and see if this was ever done on a PAL release. Maybe some of you other assemblers will know??? Thanks again, Aaron (Gibba)
In PAL only the blue exist. For the RBG with PAL console. Only FRA model are modable. I'm not sure but it seems they are the first series release in France.
Hi there ElBarto, Thank you very much for clarifying that to me, it is very good to know. Do you have any other useful info that may help me in my knowledge towards my collections, Regards Aaron (Gibba)
Your wrong. It has two model of PAL N64. Early models with builtin VDC dac chip and later version with DENC dac. The labelled "FRA" model can take advantage of RGB with a little mod. This kind of N64 has a VDC chip who is able to output RGB. Unfortunately, the RGB signal is not wired to the AV out port. On PCB it has some traces, location for component but no component. These ones are for signal amp. On DENC N64, dac can't ouput RGB, only composite signals. It follows that RGB mod it's a bit complexe. You need to setup a CPLD and take signal directly from graphics chip. final proto However, dev N64 has native RGB output.
Ah, thanks for that clarification, Dr. Wily! Wow, nice twin controller pack! Never seen that one before! What country is it from?
Hi there folks, thanks once again for all of your msgs. As requested please see some of my n64 collection. better pics to follow
Excellent collection, nice to see someone into the N64. I really love those coloured transparent consoles, always wanted one. Had no idea there was a Donkey Kong console pack, was that sold in the UK?
