Welcome to another BOLT-ON for the Hyperspin Bolt-on Edition –We’re bringing you the Nintendo 64DD (not to be confused with the N64) – a download at under 600mb with what we believe to be a complete romset for this obscure system- this is some great gaming rolled into one very missed system! There is already a non-bolt on (Standard) download here for those not ‘bolting-on’
The64DD (Japanese: 64DD Hepburn: Rokujūyon Dī Dī?), colloquially referred to as the Nintendo 64DD, is a magnetic disk drive peripheral for the Nintendo 64 game console developed by Nintendo. It was originally announced in 1995, prior to the Nintendo 64’s 1996 launch, and after numerous delays was finally released only in Japan on December 1, 1999. Only ten pieces of software were released until the unit was discontinued in February 2001. It was a commercial failure,[3] with at least 15,000 total units sold, with the other 85,000 units scrapped.[4]” -(source wiki)
