Nintendo 64 Repair & Restoration in Charlotte
The N64 was built like a tank, but the years still show: fuzzy or missing video, dead controller ports, worn analog sticks that flop and drift, and cartridge slots that need a clean. We repair and restore the N64 and its controllers at our bench, and we can modernise how it connects to today's TVs. Free diagnostic, honest quote.

Mods & Upgrades
Better than the day you got it
Nothing dates an N64 like the joystick — twenty years of Mario Party wore them into mush. A fresh stick and a video mod, and it plays and looks better than it did the day you got it. That's the whole point of restoring one rather than replacing it.
How it works

Diagnostic and inspection
We open the N64, inspect the board for failing capacitors and voltage regulator issues, test the cartridge connector, and run cartridges to identify all faults before quoting.
