Before you choose

Same era doesn't mean same connection.

Compare your console, connector and game requirements before ordering or opening an accessory. Opened or powered-on electronics are not eligible for voluntary returns; see the return policy for details and help with an order problem.

1. Match the system, not just the shape

Read the exact platform in the product name and check the plug. An N64 controller connection and a USB connection are different. A retro-style USB pad does not plug directly into an original SNES or N64 controller port.

2. Match the accessory to the job

An N64 Controller Pak stores supported game data through the controller. An Expansion Pak fits inside the console and expands system memory. Buying a save card does not replace an Expansion Pak.

3. Check the game before buying a save card

N64 save requirements vary by game. For Mario Kart 64 on original hardware, use the ghost-save checklist to check the card and free space you need.

From the Field Guide

A great lap deserves a rematch.

Mario Kart 64 can keep your time records without a Controller Pak, but saving a ghost run is a different job. Follow the guide before buying or clearing a card.
