So looks like I'll need to pick up a 64drive to ensure I can get firmware updates when they come out. If I'll pretty much only be using the 64drive for this purpose (until I figure out another use for it) will I need to purchase a separate micro SD card? Or does the 64drive itself have enough memory in it for the firmware updates?
Also if you do end up changing the hardware some time down the line, and we already have the first model of UltraHDMI installed, can we send it to an installer again to get it replaced with the new hardware?
Bumped my questions since I got no answer. Anyone know? Thanks
Okay, at the risk of sounding like a complete idiot, here we go. I'm sure you can play N64 roms on the 64Drive, as well as run homebrew apps and NES roms (added bonus instead of just buying it to update your HDMI firmware
)
But I am also on the fence about the 64Drive and have a couple of questions for you Marshall, or anyone else knowledgeable enough to answer.
Is the 64Drive going to be a for-sure method of firmware updating for the HDMI mod?
And I was reading that there is two games the 64Drive cannot play (with the exception of one with some type of fix). What are the games that the device cannot play (support says check the manual for a list of said games, but I cannot find this list after reading the manual several times) and what is the fix for the one that is fixable?
Thank you ahead of time. There are a few games for the N64 that are just ridiculously expensive and if I can play them via the 64Drive and update the firmware of the HDMI mod, I'm sold. Again, many thanks for your time in both reading my short novel here and in answering my questions.
TLDR: What games does the 64Drive NOT PLAY, and is the 64Drive a for-sure method of updating the firmware for the HDMI mod hardware in the future?
