Want to play your Nintendo 64 but lost your original Jumper Pak? Without it, your console is just a retro paperweight. Detroit Packing Co. has a solution for you with the N64 Booster Pack! Just insert it into your consoles memory expansion port and youre ready to play the 64-bit games that redefined a generation of video games!
The Jumper Pak (タ?ミネ?タ パック T?min?ta Pakku, Terminator Pack) is a filler that plugged into the consoles memory expansion port. It serves no functional purpose other than to terminate the RAMBUS bus in the absence of the Expansion Pak. This is functionally equivalent to a continuity RIMM in a RAMBUS motherboard filling the unused RIMM sockets until the user upgrades. Early Nintendo 64 consoles (prior to the Expansion Paks release) came with the Jumper Pak included and already installed. Jumper Paks were not sold individually in stores and could only be ordered individually through Nintendos online store. The system requires the Jumper Pak when the Expansion Pak is not present or else there will be no picture on the TV screen.
Important: Not compatible with games that require the ram expansion pack, such as Majoras Mask, Perfect Dark Zero, Donkey Kong 64 etc. (will not work with these games)
This is a replacement "jumper pack" for the N64, for standard games that do not require the expansion pak. This device is not the 4MB ram expansion pack
