8BitDo has released a DIY wireless replacement PCB that turns an OEM N64 controller into a Bluetooth wireless controller. Combined with a BlueRetro adapter, this kit allows you to use this controller with a real N64!
Is this the new best wireless solution for the N64? How does it compare to the Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) controller and a wired N64 controller?
Find out in this video!
