About N64d
N64d is a compilation of Nintendo64-related documents. Although mainly concentrating on the technical side of the console, other useful info will be provided (such as how to run Jap games on your USA system).
Most of the info found here is not exclusive to ourselves. It is available freely on many publications, either web-based or paper-based. However, most, if not all documents have been completely RE-WRITTEN, overhauled and added to by ourselves in order improve relevancy and aesthetics. Each doc comes with a source location, so you can easily look up missing or incomplete facts.
This is version 0.2 of N64d and is the second public release.
What's new in this version?
Unfortunately - not much. All previously incomplete documents are now, well, complete. There is one extra doc included giving tech-specs on the N64dd add-on. NO - we still haven't documented the Rambus DRAM system - Sorry!
This version is less of a real update, more of a stop-gap until we find the time for full development.
Feel free to upload this version of the doc onto your web-site or BBS as all previous inaccuracies have been dealt with.
