Internal cleaning and dust removal

This does not include removal of tough stains or caked on substances (ultrasonic cleaning is available for deep cleaning).

Additional Services Offered-

Electrolytic Capacitor Replacement

Over time, electrolytic capacitors lose their ability to perform as intended. This can have varying effects on performance (none good). The electrolyte, paper and aluminum foil in the capacitor degrade physically and chemically over time. Aging capacitors can cause a wide range of issues and in extreme cases can leak electrolytic fluid onto the PCB (again, not good).

Motherboard Recap

This option replaces the capacitors on the Dreamcast motherboard.

Power LED Replacement

This service replaces the original N64 power LED with 1:1 replacement in your choice of color.

Green
White
Pink
RGB (Slow Cycle)

Thermal Pad Replacement

Thermal pads are an intermediary that improves heat transfer between two surfaces (in this case, the heatsync and chip). Thermal pads can break down over time due to aging and heat cycling, which can reduce their ability to transfer heat effectivly. This service replaces the old and worn out thermal pads with new high conductivity PC quality pads. This option includes -

1x New GPU Thermal Pad
1x New CPU Thermal Pad
1x New RAM Thermal Pad

Region Free Cartridge Tray

Good ol' Nintendo decided to region locked the N64 using slightly different notched cartridge trays for US/JP consoles preventing the cartridge from entering the slot. This of course prevents you from playing a game from Japan on a USA system or vise versa. This option adds a modified N64 cartridge tray, in your choice of color, that does not have these region lock tabs. Allowing you to enjoy both US and JP games on the same system! This option includes -

1x N64 Region Free Cartridge Tray (In your choice of color)

RGB Amp Install

RGB is arguably the king of analog video modes which, unfortunately, the N64 does not natively output. This option adds an RGB amplifier (Store provided) to a compatible console which will allow RGB output from the multiout AV port. The easiest way to see if your console is compatible is via the Serial Number sticker on the bottom. If the sticker is missing you can look at the motherboard. Motherboards with NUS-CPU-01 through NUS-CPU-04 above the cartridge connector are compatible. The following serial numbers are compatible.

NS1XXXXXXXX - (USA Consoles)
NUJ1XXXXXXX - (JP Consoles)

Ultrasonic Cleaning

Additional Information -

Once your order is received, you will be sent shipping information to send your console in for the work to be completed.

Initial shipping is the customers responsibility. Please ship your console and kit with ample packing material. Shipping paid at checkout is how your console will be shipped back to you after the work has been completed.

Please only send the console and kit to be installed. Power cables, controllers, AV cables or any other accessories that are not needed will only raise the shipping costs both ways.

If a console arrives not working, you will be contacted and notified. Most things can be fixed and arrangements can be made, but in the case of a console that is inoperable, the console will be returned, and you will be refunded minus return shipping costs.

Turnaround time is usually within 2-3 weeks, but can be longer depending on current workload or if parts need to be ordered.

Is there a specific mod you would like that is not on this listing? Send us a message! We can customize any order to your liking, and adjust the price accordingly depending on what it is. We are always happy to help and look forward to working with you on your next project!
