n64 memory card?

Question

do n64 need meory cards and if they do were do u plug them

Answer 1

there are slots for memory card in your n64 underneath the controller. Some games require the card, and you would need it if you want to transfer games from one cartridge to another

Answer 2

i have played many N64 games and it was my life growing up as a teen. out of all the games i played for the N64, i really never needed a memory card, for any good games that is, some games would demand that you need a memory card, such as "spider man" after watching a cut scene it would ask you to save, then you could turn the game off and put in a completely different card and would be able to continue from where you left off. what i think it really needs the memory card for is just like a computer needs more ram for larger programs and to do more than one thing at once. what i found out to be more important for the N64 was having a "Expansion Pack" which was needed by some games such as "Legend of Zelda: Majoras Mask". the expansion packs would go in the very top of the N64 and can be pried out. the expansion pack is a hard drive and held the O.S.(operating system) of the original N64, and sense Nintendo didn't want to release a hole new system, so they made the hard ware replaceable. then they told people that it was a memory card cause most people just assume it was, because they have no knowledge of how a computer works, and thats what all game systems are, just computers that run programs that were stored on a portable file. I hope this answers all your questions of the N64 and its components.

Answer 3

Yes, but its an expansion pack to the controller. I have no idea what one looks like. . Only SOME games need the memory card. Some games have their own memory pack in the game cartridge.Hope this helps

You'll need a memory card sometimes, and the cards fit at the bottom of your controller. You can even get some with built in rumble packs (that's the way mine are).
