Nintendo 64MM

The 64MM (short for 64 MultiMedia) is a fanonical add-on system developed by Nintendo for the Nintendo 64 video game console.

Description
The 64MM is designed to provide the Nintendo 64 with communication and storage capabilities when equipped to the console via its expansion slot on the underside, similar to the 64DD. It features TV tuning functionality with picture-in-picture support, internet access capabilities, and a hard disk drive for storing games that are downloaded off of the internet. Added to the aforementioned, it also has an IR remote control and a security backplate to prevent anybody from meddling with the plugs.

TV tuner
With the TV tuner component of the 64MM, TV signals are coupled to the device via RF input from cable TV or off-air signals. The RF signals are then blended with the output signals from the N64. This is how the 64MM's picture-in-picture feature works. It allows the user to watch TV while playing a game or browsing the internet. The 64MM also features an IR remote control with a matching receiver, so that the user can change channels.

Internet
The 64MM features a modem, allowing the user to access the internet. From there, the user can surf the web and/or download games from a special server. The downloaded games are stored on the 64MM's hard disk drive, which has a 640MB capacity. The internet browser utilized in the 64MM was co-developed by Nintendo and Netscape, based on the Netscape browser.

Games
The game-downloading aspect of the 64MM's internet capabilities features an exclusive selection of games, ranging from original titles to special editions of existing N64 games. Of course, games previously released on cartridge can also be downloaded.
