The best part? It's completely compatible with all N64 games. That's right, every single cartridge from the N64 library will work flawlessly. How does it manage this? With FPGA technology, making it function just like the original console. This isn't your typical retro console. It's packed with features like Bluetooth support, four original controller ports, two USB ports, and an SD card slot. To top it off, it comes with a brand new operating system called 3D OS.
