Testing N64 emulation on Raspberry Pi 5 64bit (Nintendo 64)
I got me a Raspberry Pi 5 and I'm testing to see what it can do. How much more capable is it than the Pi4? I've received some requests to try some things out and in this video I'm going to take a look at Nintendo 64 emulation. Now, I must confess that I am not a Nintendo fan so I won't be able to give an informed opinion on how the emulation holds up against real hardware, or the Pi4, but I can at the very least show you what it looks like. My Raspberry Pi 5 is not overclocked for this test. This is running at stock speeds. At the time of writing, N64 is on of the systems that won't run on Pi5 unless you add a line to your `/boot/firmware/config.txt` file. If N64 won't run for you, add `kernel=kernel8.img` (without the quotes) to the file so that your Pi5 will boot up with a different kernel, allowing N64 to run. Hopefully in the near future, this issue will be resolved in the Bookworm OS so this workaround won't be needed.

I mostly do gameplay videos on original hardware, occasionally a how-to guide or sometimes a look at something new, like developments on the Raspberry Pi5 and Sinden Lightgun.
