Forever Pak 64 256KB Battery-free Memory Pak for Nintendo 64

The Problem

Original, official N64 controller paks store their save files on battery-backed SRAM chips. These volatile chips only store data when they are supplied power, which is supplied by the battery. But once the battery dies, so does your data stored on the chip it was powering. This means every controller pak, along with the data on them, is on a ticking timer. While new batteries can be soldered in, lost save files cannot be recovered, and the pak will eventually run out of battery and cease to function again.

The Solution

Rather than using battery backed memory, forever paks use modern, advanced, nonvolatile memory. The memory chips are not battery backed, allowing it to last indefinitely. The Forever Pak has 256kb of storage, the same as an original OEM pak. 

The Good Stuff

Forever Pak uses high-quality injection molds with high-grade plastics. Custom circuit boards utilize gold plated contacts, with beveled edges to help prolong the life of your controller.  It feels like the real deal, but for the absolute purists out there, Forever Pak's circuit board is compatible with the original controller memory pak's shell. This means our PCB can be installed in an official first-party shell without any modifications to the shell, should you desire.

You Get a Sticker

Each Forever Pak comes with 2 sticker labels that can be applied to the face of the cart. These are useful for writing down what's saved on the game pak. Or you can leave the pak blank and stick them on your forehead. The choice is yours. We wont judge.

Color Conscious 

Our injection molded shells were carefully tuned to match the official controller colors. Everyone has a favorite N64, and unlike their matching controllers, you don't have to pay extra to get the one you want.

FAQ

Q: Does the Forever Pak work with the Dex Drive?

A: We have been told it works with the Dex Drive but it must be formatted using the Dex Drive before you begin playing and saving. 

 

PLEASE NOTE:
THIS IS A CONTROLLER MEMORY PAK FOR SAVING GAMES. IT IS NOT THE MEMORY EXPANSION PAK THAT IS INSTALLED IN THE CONSOLE.

    Great Modern Replacement for the Increasingly Rare Gamepaks

    A great option for anyone looking to not worry about losing save games for the N64. Combined with the EverDrive one can transfer save games on and off one cartridge, allowing for many more saves than the oak can support. I was also most pleased to see that the grape purple is much darker than Nintendo`s attempt, and imo a much better colour.

    Great product especially when combined with everdrive

    I bought this for the few games that require the memory pak for the N64. Not worrying about the memory corrupting or being lost is nice. While the small memory size is a bit disappointing it`s really not an issue with a krikzz everdrive as you can transfer and load memory information directly to your SD card very quickly and painlessly.

    This works great, I had forgotten how many games need it or benefit from it. And it matches my everdrive and tribute 64.

    Works great

    So far so good. This has fixed my problem of the old controller pak losing my data, even though the battery was still good. So far this has kept all my data and reads and writes just as fast as it should. Great product.

    Was getting back to Gaming on my N64 again, but my memory pak battery had died and read as corrupted, I decided to get the Forever Pak 64 after some online research and it works great and fits my Brawler 64 Controller like a glove. Would def recommend.
