Nintendo 64

Hit and miss

Hit and miss by title. Frame skipping is needed to make demanding games playable.

  • Lighter titles such as Mario Kart 64 are playable.

Tested by: Retro Dodo, GBAtemp

Most titles work well, with occasional judder.

  • Crazy Taxi shows visible judder at times.

Tested by: Retro Dodo, Time Extension

Works, with the usual sub-30 fps bottlenecks on heavier 3D.

  • God of War: Chains of Olympus and GTA: Vice City Stories drop below 30 fps.
  • Patapon and LocoRoco are more than serviceable.
  • The H700 has no active cooling and the back-right of the device gets warm under load.
