Hello everyone. I didn't own a NINTENDO64, but I did have a fight with a friend over how to wind the controller cord. I'm Saori from Retro Video Game Republic.

If it's your friend's controller at their house, you should prioritize their way of winding the cord. I also didn't have a NINTENDO64. I'm Boss from Retro Video Game Republic.

No, the way you wind the cord can determine the lifespan of the controller! If you wind it in such a cool way, the cord will get ruined in no time! Let's look back at the NINTENDO64, where we had arguments over such concerns.

What is NINTENDO64?

The NINTENDO64 is a home gaming console developed by Nintendo Co., Ltd.
It was released in 1996 as the successor to the Super Famicom.
It was the first home gaming console by Nintendo Co., Ltd. to fully support 3D gaming. Games like “Super Mario 64” allowed users to freely explore three-dimensional spaces using the controller, and it featured many games specialized in this kind of operability.
However, there were challenges such as the difficulty of software development and the increased barriers to entry for manufacturers. These challenges would be inherited by its next-generation console, the NINTENDO GAMECUBE.
Initially, the naming conventions for Nintendo Co., Ltd.'s home gaming consoles varied by country due to factors like patents. However, the NINTENDO64 was sold under the unified name of 'NINTENDO64' in many regions.

By the way, which way of winding the cord did you recommend?

This is it: don't twist the cord unnecessarily and make it easy to use for next time. Isn't it perfect? Since the cord couldn't be removed and replaced, this is a quite crucial issue!
●These are the games I would always play when I hung out at my friends' houses! Played a lot of Nintendo games! Even took them to school camps and played secretly with friends in the middle of the night!
