Description:

This is a detailed 3D model of a Nintendo 64 Game Pak (ROM Catridge).

Technical Notes:

It includes two texture variations - One for Gold, and one for Standard gray. There are two model files in the zip file for the reason of the gold catridge's metallic appearance.

Games:

GoldenEye 007
Mario Kart 64
Super Mario 64
Super Smash Bros.
Zelda: Ocarina of Time

All surfaces are smoothable (further), although the model as rendered is 8998 polygons (Blender Cycles).

Labels are separate and very easy to snip and apply - The boundaries of the label are exactly that of the texture.

4K Photoshop Multilayered texture files are available so you can easily change the color and other characteristics of the Game Pak.

History:

The Nintendo 64 Game Pak (part number NUS-006) is the brand name of the ROM cartridges that store game data for the Nintendo 64. As with Nintendo's previous consoles, the Game Pak's design strategy was intended to achieve maximal read speed and lower console manufacturing costs through not integrating a mechanical drive, with a drawback of lower per dollar storage capacity compared to a disk. From the console's first year from late 1996 through 1997, Game Pak sizes were 4 to 12 megabytes with a typical third party retail price of US$75.99 (equivalent to about $150 in 2024), then available in 32 megabytes in 1998, and finally 64 megabytes from 1999 onwards.
